I'll PM you my mobile # and expected hotel. I plan to arrive in Strasbourg late in the evening of the 17th. I would love to meet a fellow frinkster.
But I am not going to mention frink to Moz anymore. I've paid my dues!

i' ll arrive by plan in Lyon. How do I get to Clermont? and then to Strasbourg and Lille?
Oops. That I don't know. I thought you were referring to Strasbourg. I know Strasbourg quite well but I'm not familiar with the other two cities. Sorry.

No way...
On this site you can check train timetables and also book tickets (it's in Italian!)

maybe i could also throw in another question?
do you know how far the main station (or even better the mercure hotel gare central) is from the laiterie?
i'm sure i will find the venue without problems since i've been there quite a few times.
will i need to take a bus or a taxi to get to/from venue/hotel or is it just a walk away??
I will be in Strasbourg all week, so I'll find out and let you all know. We could also share a cab or two, if we team up like 2-3 persons per cab it's gonna cost us 5-10 euros per person, I think. The Mercure Gare Central is right in front of the train station, you just can't miss it.

The laiterie is about a 5 minutes walk from the station and about a 10 minute walk from the centre of town (cathedral).
There is a tram line that goes from the centre of town to the Laiterie (Tram stop - Laiterie) and will get you from the centre of town in about 2 minutes.
If you are here for the day you can get tram tickets that are valid for 24 hours, but Stras is so small you can just about do it all on foot.

very kind of you!
so i guess i will book the hotel instead of driving the 2 hours home after the gig...
any ideas of what to do after the concert? any interesting clubs? or a so-low-after-show-party??

hey - a local
thanks for the information!
5 minute walk sounds great...
maybe you could tell us a bit more what to do in strasbourg?
It's tramline B which passes through the centre. You can get on at Homme de Fer for example, which is a traditional meeting point for youngsters, and the Laiterie is the 4th stop from there.
I'm not sure if I go to an afterparty though, because my plane will leave at 7 AM the next morning...

What to do in Strasbourg .............hmmmm
Modern Art Museum - close to the laiterie
Boat Trip tour of the city from Palais Rohan (not very rock and roll but quite interesting)
Cathedral
For bars/restaurants you could try:
Academie de la bière (bar/restaurant) - rue aldophe seybroth (quite near the Laiterie)
les brasseurs (bar/restaurant) - rue des frères (other side of town but brews it's own beer and does food all day)
Exils (bar) rue de l'ail
Broc en Stoc - (restaurant) Tin Tin themed restaurant on quai des bateliers.
The french forum has organised an "aftershow" for Lille and Paris but nothing for strasbourg so far. We are going to Lille the following day by car so it will be an early night for us.
Yes, the Cathedral is a must. You can also take a lovely walk in Petite France. And let's not forget that it's time for the winter sales!
As for the Boat Trip, it's very nice, so I think it's worth a try. Strasbourg is stunnigly beautiful, and the boat takes you to the European quarters too, which is rather interesting.
