So, just how comfortable is the pavement outside for sleeping on?

[gm]

We dunno if there's gonna be one yet.

[motor]

Really comfortable-there won't be any

[®at]

Was ok at the one just gone.
Good atmosphere- just bloody freezing when it got to 4 or 5am

[a4mnt]

Really comfortable-there won't be any

There won't be any pavement or there won't be any ghetto?

I was referring to Ghetto but you never know there might not be any pavement either

[mammal2]

I think there will be a Ghetto. I doubt in the UK though this year. I really hope London again, but who knows???

[gm]

It would be a shame if there weren't one at all, or (from my pov) if it were a not London one. The formula works. If it ain't broke... etc.





Edit: 800th post! ;D

What ever they do they wont let on untill at least November IMO. If you remember everyone thought SG06 was going to be in NY until Nov ish last year, then it turned out to be in London.

[pezlow]

I can't see why they can't have two ghettos - one in London and one in New York. A banksy print could be simultaneously released at both. Think of the publicity that would generate.

It would be a shame if there wasnt one in london! i think it would be a tad unfair!

why cant they just do a joint santas ghetto this year! one in new york and one in London! as im sure they are gonna want the u.s. market but i cannay afford to get myself to the big apple!
but it may make a good excuse to save up!

[pezlow]

Lol - great minds Phoeton

[Greg]

hahaa spooky!

Well I was quite literally fresh off the plane from NY to the ghetto for Flag, so if it comes down to it I will do the same next year either way... if there was one in both cities, it would be no problem doing both either (although i very much doubt I would score a Banksy print in each!)

Thats assuming they pre announce it of course! :s
To be honest, I thought the number of people lining up for Flag would be greater given the demand for Banksy prints and the fact that there was plenty of notice in advance of the sale.

It does make that print extra special to me... 3.5k miles and a freezing cold night on the scuzzy end of oxford street is a nice tale to tell.

Oh well...its all speculation. Only another 6 months to go....

[a4mnt]

So whats the score? They only let you have one print, either u/s or signed if you can get one?

What about micallef? Could you have turned up and bought one of each of his prints that were available??

[Mrs Mouse]

When I was queing up I had a nice little chat with Mr Evil who was handing out leaflets. I suggested that the next Ghetto should be in Bristol in recognition of the contribution that Banksy has made to graffiti art.

Plus, more importantly, I live about 15 mins away! Ha ha

You Londoners have had it too good for too long IMO! So c'mon - give us a look in! ;D

[shine166]

They should do another ghetto but just as an exhibition, at least then we'd get the chance to look at the work without being hit in the face by some posh sort on the phone with ten tubes under each arm asking when that Fags print by that nice man from Bristol is gonna be released.

They should just release a print every other day on the site imo

Yeh, Count me in!

[corblimeylimey]

O.K. we're all agreed, Bristol.

Cool.

[stuey09]

Eeeerm. Not all, actually

[corblimeylimey]

Too late stuey, it's been decided, can't change the plans now.

[stuey09]

No worries. If there's a SG this year I would just be relieved that it is UK based. (Sorry AB)

[corblimeylimey]

Banksy votes Bristol too, he said he could crash round at an old mates house.
