Guys, how about I just phone the boat tomorrow to find out if there's a free table on Friday around 4/5 pm? Yeah, I'll do that...

I was just about to ask if anyone got around to do that. Thank you

Damn I was just on the phone with a lady with the cutest French accent... ( 3D 3D 3D) - she told me I had to phone later today or tomorrow as there's no one in the lounge right now who'd be able to answer questions about free tables and stuff. I tried to keep her on the phone for a little longer but it seems she was busy.  Undecided

Guess I'll try later then...

Hi, I'm a long time lurker but first time poster here.  I'm planning on being at the Berlin concert - can you count me in too for this boating meet-up? I'll be the one wearing a non-BB tee shirt.

On sunday the Beach Boys will play Mönchengladbach and on the same day WDR2 will air the live recordings that were played on nrp.org (I guess they are the same):

And here you can win 2 tickets for the show in Mönchengladbach:

I guess no one has any idea where the BB's are staying in Berlin? I don't mean to stalk them, it would just be nice to maybe have my copy of TWGMTR signed...

Let me tell you, these things are easier in Helsinki, Finland. There's about two really plush hotels in town, and all the stars are always in either one of them. Just pop up in front of the hotel a few hours before the concert and say hi to Macca (or whoever). I guess town the size of Berlin has too many hotels to be sure.

Okay, I finally got through to someone on the boat. I booked two tables in the lounge for ~10 people and I informed them that most of us will arrive between 4 and 5pm. If you're the first to arrive ask for Carsten - our reservation is under my last same: Sievers. They also have my cell phone number.

See you there...!  Smiley

Thank you, Lowbacca! I owe you a beer for that.

We'll be leaving soon too, I hope we manage to get there since our car is not allowed for the environmental zone there.

Rolling Stone does is again: factual errors, wrong spelling of names..  Roll Eyes

Props for the autotune question, though. Answered half-honestly by Mike.  Grin
