the missus & I are up for the Proclaimers gig in November.

Only been up there for the fitba so no got a clue on location wise staying near the train station.

What's the best way to get to the gig & then back for late night drinkie poos?

 

AECC is couple miles up the same main  road as Pittodrie

https://www.aecc.co.uk/your-event/getting-here/

Bus Route 1 or 2 from Union Street + there is a Gig N GO service

You’ll have zero chance of getting a taxi. The aecc only allow rainbow taxis to operate from there. 

The gig & go is the best option by a mile, but expect to wait anything upto an hour to get the bus. 

The hotel is about a 5 minute walk away from union street, at the very most. 

Plenty choices after the gig where you want to go, I’m assuming it’s a weekend gig? Just depends what kind of music you want and how much you want to pay for drinks.

Last time I was there for a gig was Oasis.

Was a complete pain in arse to get back into city centre. May have changed now though.

We got 1-0 off Aberdeen that day too!

Ha! I was at both the gig and the game that day. About 20 of us headed up from Perth and two of my mates were Dons so we did Pittodrie before the gig.

Small world.

I couldn't believe it when the gig was announced and I looked at the fixtures.

Sargeant supported them.

Nope. 

Its still white to get back to town. 

When I left the brewdog agm in April, we got on a bus about 9:15pm and got the 3 miles or so at 10pm. 

It doesn’t help that first Aberdeen bus drivers are complete and utter cunts.
