If anyone wants to be a little more familiar with the venue (I find it reassuring), here is a virtual tour of the Troxy: my.matterport.com/show/?m=8oaoCFf1UR3
If you want to book the Troxy for your wedding, divorce party, or funeral, here is a really outdated promotional video. FWIW, the stained glass features are beautiful.
Do you think I could arrange a midday wedding on the 1st November and just hide in the toilets until 7pm?
I won’t rat you out and might even bring you a drink.
I hear you. I'm also unable to travel and attend shows due to mental health
It was a bit of a difficult decision to choose to go since I struggle with the same. It helps to have my husband's blessing, that I have been there before, and that I'm getting good treatment. I couldn't possibly feel more anxious on this trip than I already do a lot of time on the subway, here, so there's that, too. Let's just say, "I know what you mean."
No worries Kirstie, we will team up and it will be a wonderful day and night

Excellent! 😁 I can’t wait. I am a good guard dog, too. 😏

I think Charlotte would be heading for the toilet as soon she saw you getting down on one knee Young Master Hughes ......
The reality is now sinking in that I actually have a ticket and it won't magically disappear. I have, over the years, had several dreams about going to really small Cure shows, so it is kind of like a dream come true.
I will get to take a long flight and not worry about anyone else throwing up, their luggage, etc. I can just sleeeeeeepp. I don't have to account for anyone else's taste in dining, move anyone else's wet towels in the hotel bathroom, etc. I will also (hopefully) get to meet some great people from here in the flesh.
AND: for the first time since I saw them play an outdoor show on Randall's Island 20 years ago and was surrounded by frat bros in backwards baseball caps I don't have to worry about dancing and falling down the stairs of MSG, being asked to keep the aisle clear, or crashing into a seat because I have a floor ticket!!!!
I was thinking before the show went on sale that some of the happiest moments in my life are when I'm dancing to TC live. Holy cow.

As for airport transfer: I paid £18,15 for a return ticket via b*ing.com. Stanstedexpress.com wants me to pay £33,- for the same ticket. That's a quarter Troxy-Ticket price-difference!

Flying into Stansted as well from Dublin, landing at something like 7.30am! Felt like a good idea when I booked the flight!
Stansted is the worst London airport, not that it matters really, mainly finding somewhere to sit when leaving. At least the Express takes you straight to Liverpool St and not that far from Limehouse. Citymapper is good, Google Maps does just as well, I sometimes use both here. I mentioned elsewhere that the Troxy is a gorgeous venue but trying to see in the standing section is impossible unless you get down to the lower ground floor bit immediately in front of the stage. We managed to get downstairs to it for Siouxsie, but only just. Was a nightmare getting to the toilet/bar and back. I imagine that this will be worse.
