An email I just got

You have booked:

2 standing tickets for BEN FOLDS at Carling Academy Sheffield in Sheffield on TUE, 08/07/2008. Doors open at 19:00, show starts at 20:00

...

Yay! Due to various reasons I've failed to see Ben Folds the last few times he's come to the UK. But not this time! I've not told Jane yet, who's not as huge a Ben fan as I am. But I chose the venue carefully and I can sell it to her as a chance to re-live her youth as a gig-going student in Sheffield, and maybe show me around her old stomping grounds at the same time.

Just have to hope she doesn't read this blog! :-)

Blogger Rol  Only 4 dates? That's not a tour. Damn it, I can't be bothered to drive down to Sheffield on a Tuesday night... not even for BF.

I really am getting old. 
Blogger Jane  oooh Sheffield, I've not been in ages though not since 1997 in fact. Apparently the Sheffield Carling Acadamy used to be the Roxy. The one and only time I went to the Roxy was on the Rag Week Pajama Jump (since sadly discontinued) 
Blogger Lynn Jones  Finally a chance to be Rockin The Suburbs then? :)

Make sure you've got a map or SatNav primed, the roads can be a bit tricky. 
Anonymous Dan  I know it wasn't an invite, but I am extremely tempted to see you there. I shall consult with senior management.
