I'll mosh with ya, Tim! Hmmm....Two people moshing; Is that like the sound of one hand clapping?

I don't think they'll be any seating- And believe me, I've had an earful about that from my partner already. Hope there won't be any 'moshing', like here (WARNING: There are many, many rude words uttered in the following clip): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jK_p5rYwRyE ...I assume that's the same s...

I just realised my previous post was a bit pointless, as it appears that you're not able to purchase the tickets online. D'oh! Sorry.

The ticket call centre number's there in the bottom right hand corner, though: 760 30 93 30.

Don't know what's up with the Ticketline site, but this link should take you directly to LC ticket purchase on FNAC:

Hi again everyone, I was just having a look at the Optimus Alive! Festival website, as it's on at the moment and it's roughly the same site our gig'll be on (there won't be all the outbuilding's etc., but it gives the best idea so far where the stage will be, and what our "paddock' enclosure mi...

Hi again, catswhiskers! We're also driving up, and my partner is trying to convince me to drive directly home after the concert as well (I have to be back down to Faro airport for 9am the next morning), so I was thinking about parking options... The area marked with an 'E' on this sat pic of the are...

I was just about to post the Hennessey's link, but was not fast enough! *FOILED!*

By the way, boirina, the was THE MOST ROMANTIC STORY EVER, with regards to your attending the concert (cf. the 'Lisboa' thread).

Hope to see you there!

Oh, I see...I take a Sunday off poolside for the first time in ages, and this thread just takes off without me! Harrumph. Anyway, to review: Portugal has been smoke free since the beginning of this year, although there are some exceptions and flouting of the law (I thought this was hilarious: http:/...

OMG, nooo! Don't complicate things at this point! We were nearly there! Naw, they have salads- I'll be fine. And actually, their menu's more veggie-friendly than a lot of trad Portuguese places. I shouldn't think that we'll need to book, given how early we're thinking of being there, but I still thi...

Is it too early to pack ???? According to my mother, it's NEVER too early to pack. In other news: OK, I cave: I had a little "discussion" with my Reluctant Cohenite partner, and "we've" decided to go to the Irish bar, for the conviviality, if not the food. So, could we maybe rei...

On Sunday we will head for the Algarve.. Looking forward to going back. We were in Praia da Rocha and I think we would like to go back there, so if there is anywhere you can recommend that would be great. Also what is the best way to get from Lisbon to there, Bus or train ?? Sorry for the lateness ...

Hello MFL, Another potential Lisbon concert-goer, eh? [tents fingers a la Mr.Burns] Excellent, excellent. The area the venue is in is Alges/ Oeiras. You might try inputting 'Alges' into the search box at http://www.booking.com as they have a great map facility for each hotel, and you can see exactly...

Hello again all, I've been busy with The Guests From Hades for a couple weeks now, so really haven't been back here much, but Hennessey's has its own website, with menus & maps and in English too: http://www.hennessys.com.pt/ If you're going to book, please don't count me or my partner in- We ha...

Ok, I didn't realise Luis' dinner arrangements were prior to the concert. Why don't we all meet at the Irish bar then- unless it would be imposing on a family gathering...? What time would that be? I shouldn't think we need to book ahead if it's as early as 6pm, say. But I don't know for sure, not b...

New Zealander: Cafe culture is very important in Portuguese culture, but I've never been in a cafe that didn't serve booze as well (in fact, I've seen little old men having brandies with their coffee at 8 am, but I digress). A little on Lisbon cafes: http://www.golisbon.com/food/cafeterias.html That...
