skelf Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Hi The next MBB has been sorted for the 5/6th of February 2011. All the details can be found on the MBB website (link at the bottom of the post). This year we have been able to Stevie Williams to do a clinic/performance. (The organiser of UK Bassday) Several builders will be on hand on Sunday. Overwater Jon Shuker Haydn Williams Are all confirmed. The resident band will once more be in attendance but with a set list this year so if jamming is not your thing there will I am sure be something you know or could learn. For the weekend tickets the usual B&B plus the curry house and no doubt a few beers. All details are on the site. [url="http://www.moffatbassbash.co.uk/"]http://www.moffatbassbash.co.uk/[/url] This is a ticket only event there will be no paying on the door. There are a limited number of weekend tickets left which will be first come first served. Contact details are all on the website if you have any questions.

For any other interested punters we have only 1 double left, and 2 singles as of today (Sat 19th Nov) As Alan said, its a ticket only affair so even if its just the Sunday you need to sort out a ticket before hand so we know who and what is coming along.

As this year we are pretty sure we are going to have a few more people on the Sunday, we are making sure that we always have somebody on the door and its a strict ticket only entrance..... As there is such a fantastic collection of bass gear, we dont want any tom dick n arry walking off the street, into a room and then swiftly out again with a guitar shaped plastic bag.....

BottomEndian Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 (edited) I make that 16 ACGs on the gear list so far (including lefties as well). To anyone who's wondering what ACGs are like: this is your chance to find out! EDIT: And to commission one from Alan as well, of course. Please, make sure I don't talk to Alan for too long. My wallet will suffer. Edited November 23, 2010 by BottomEndian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skelf Posted December 4, 2010 Author Share Posted December 4, 2010 Hi We have had a drop out so this opens up a space for the weekend. Either a single or a double can be accommodated. Drop me or Dave Perry a PM if you are interested in the space. Cheers Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
