I always wondered if Sunderland fans lived in the woods;)
I'm not happy that you beat me with the double cd prediction btw.

Anyone from Germany?
Where is Ludwigslust? I can't find anything in Berlin called Ludwigslust?

It's not in Berlin, actually. It's a town between Berlin and Hamburg, near Schwerin.

Thanks! How long will it take to get there by train (from Berlin)?

It's nearer to Hamburg than to Berlin. The fast train (ICE) doesn't stop between Hamburg and Berlin, so you have to take a Interregio which is slower. But I think Berlin - Ludwigslust by a slow train will take about 70 or 80 minutes.

The gig in the forest sounds quite interesting. I hope the remainder of the UK summer dates are announced prior to these tickets going on sale though, as it's usually quite annoying to buy tickets for a gig and then find out they are playing a much closer venue after you've bought them. Do you all think that these summer concerts will be different to the 'regular' concerts planned for the Autumn, setlist etc?

Thetford isn't too far away from me, about an hour in the car I guess.
Bit nervous about an open air gig in July though. It usually rains constantly in July!
