Saw this on DL.com.

One thing that grabs me though. Phil says they're bigger in the US because they sound American and that's due to their influences....

We sound like an American band and I think that is down to our influences,” he says.

Errr hang on a minute there Phil. What about the 'Yeah!' album? And the fact that you (the band DL) always state you all love the same BRITISH 70's glam rock stuff?? (Bowie, T Rex, Mott the Hoople, David Essex, Rod Stewart etc)

You're bigger in America because you play there more often!

5,000 - 6,000.

But if they have the "in the crowd" T shaped stage extension - that will cut it down.

A great view whereever you are - but sound if lost - hexagonal shape of the venue.

At least it's not like Alice in 2002 - 2 for the price of 1 tickets in the weeks leading up to the gig.

Looking forward to all 3 bands.

My advice if you want to see all three bands. Get there early!! LOADS of people at MEN totally missed BSC, quite a few missed the majority of Whitesnake..

Got that covered - eta 5pm.

Not missing Danny and Thunder.

Car park charges in Cardiff are excessive - so will need a mortgage!

Sour mash,

Sorry dude - this ain't the venue .....

This is Cardiff Int'l Arena - built in mid 90's. It's "one block" down from the olde ice rink.

May 1992 ... freakin' hell - the HMV signing in the mid-afternoon.

.........................................................................................................

Pete - how big is this prog - hope it's not CN or HITS size!

Will get you one.

Is there a joint shirt ... like the KISS/Aero or the KISS/Journey shirts - if so might get one.

Nah it's you're regular program size. If you can't get one, don't worry I can get it off the official Snake site...

There are NO joint tour shirts...much to my disappointment, which is why I ended up purchasing a rather nice 'LoveHunter' Baseball shirt...

Dan, there's a fairly new car-park built behind the Vulcan pub opposite the prison, before the bridge leading to the CIA. It's an outdoor effort, £1 an hour or £5 for 24 hours. Cheapest there is in Cardiff, and just 100 yards from the venue. Locally, it's called Adams Street, but is also the arse-end of the A470.

My advice?

From the north, come off the A470 at J32 of the M4. Head west to J33 and take the A4232 all the way into the city centre. If you come from the Lampeter route, it's easier and closer to take the J33 anyway.

Dwight, you are a star

Will seek it out - robbing NCP

Sour Mash - you will see that Ice rink is no longer there .... it was on the corner of bute terrace and hayes bridge road.

Dan, the car-park is entrance is Garth Street on that map, just off Adams Street.
