Frost* at ProgDreams VI!

[AnsOnkruid]

Hey all!

So this was just announced and I am already so incredibly happy and excited and please feel free to come over and share the happiness! I can't believe I'm seeing my favourite progpeople again after so many years

OK - this is far enough away to get plans in place.  Who's in?

I'm guessing that flying to Schipol is best from the UK, but any advice after that gratefully received on:
2) good hotels close to the venue etc etc

[MikeEvs]

There are direct flights to Rotterdam which is closer but it's probably cheaper and more frequent flights to Schiphol, train from Schiphol will take between 53mins and 80mins depending on which service you take.

A quick look on google shows a few nearby hotels ranging in price from £50 - £85

Don't get your passport stolen at Schipol. It makes it hard to get home.
In other news,  double decker trains are cool...

At the train ticket kiosk.  Am den trens... Be careful

This is where the bands normally stay, and if you're staying for the full three days you can take advantage of their 3-nights-for-the-price-of-2 offer. I've reserved a suite, all to myself, for 170 Euros 

I've previously stayed in the NH hotel nearby, which is also smart and comfortable.

This is about 12km from my house, so I'll try and send some info later (am on holiday at the moment).

I'd say that you're all welcome to stay with us, but suspect we might be rapidly overwhelmed

Well, anyone that is coming is indeed welcome to come over for pre-gig nibbles. I'll rent enough bikes that we can then all pedal the 12km to the venue through the wide open polder landscape 

(Lord, what I have I just let myself in for?)

That's the sort of luck I normally have 

[owen]

Seriously? Is TA's place really that great?
