So I'll be out in London for work the week of the UW Roundhouse show. I figure while I'm overseas, I might as well check out the UW show, and maybe (hopefully) take in an EPL game. I'm a Fulham fan (don't hate ; ) and my buddy is a Gunner and both are home that Saturday so either match would be superb.
Thing is, I haven't been to London in 10 years and have no idea where any of these venues are in relation to each other.
If anyone has any advice on hotels or which stadiums are easier or harder to get to, I would greatly appreciate it. Actually, ANY information regarding this would be immensely helpful.
Thanks in advance. (didn't know which forum to stick this in so Mod it over to another if you need to.)

Hey Potatobroth - are you aware that Beautiful Burnout has found a suitable bar for a dirty pre-gig get-together. The thread is in the "moments" fo.... on page 2:)

Well, the Arsenal Emirates Stadium is in Holloway, North East London, nearest tube station Arsenal, on the Piccadilly line, whereas Fulham is in South West London, nearest stations Fulham Broadway or Putney Bridge.
The Round House is in Camden - nearest tube Chalk Farm, on the Northern Line, Edgware Branch. So it depends how adventurous you want to be in terms of travel in the City :)
With regard to hotels, I would really need more of an idea of what your budget per night would be before I can advise you. London is now, sadly, close to the most expensive city in the world to visit. Prices start at around £10 a night for a reasonable hostel to... well, the sky's the limit really.
PM me if I can give you any more help.

hotels.com is a good place to get last minute relatively cheap rooms
as for getting tix for the footy you have a much better chance of getting into Fulham than the Arse...
and well who wants to watch them anyway... :p
