SpaceChick Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I don't think many improvements could be made on the day, I thought it was fabulous last time and the venue was perfect. As for growing attendance, I think the sooner we can get a date in the diary and promote it the better! I for one can't wait for the next one! probably best to avoid the first weekend in March as thats the London Bass show (not that I can go, as my sisters baby is due that weekend and I'm having my nephew whilst she's having the baby!)

Rich Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Please, not the 23rd/24th as I'm probably working that weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudmover Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I would like to attend this session...Can also bring the drum kit if required tho it may need a dusting down!! On hols from 25th March so ideally before this date would be good BUT I realise "one size does not fit all" Will keep an eye on this thread..

SpaceChick Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Is the church available on the 16th Gelfin? Sounds like that could be a "suits all date" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best avoid that date then.... that leaves the only Sat in March as the 9th! Gelfin........!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaypup Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Can we do a moning 'bash' and then all head somewhere at half 2 to watch the rugby? Good excuse for people to come to Cardiff then too.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gelfin Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 Hi all. If it turns out that the Church is free on 16th. Then we could all watch the match on our large projection screen and listen via PA system. I was hoping for 23rd but that seems a bit iffy for some. March 30th is out as Church is very busy over Easter weekend. If March is getting complicated then we could consider April 6th. Chay, I just DON'T do mornings sorry.

gelfin Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 More I have asked the mods to unstick last years Bash thread and replace it with this one, just to stop any confusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceChick Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I'll come whenever, but not much one for rugby I'm afraid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gelfin Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 OK it's taken a bit of time to book it but I have had to make it the Saturday 23rd March. (Sorry Rich) The venue as beore is Park End Church CF23 6EG Llandenis rd. Map details below https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=parkend+church+cardiff&rlz=1C1_____en-gbGB479GB479&aq=1&oq=parkend+ch&aqs=chrome.2.57j0l3j60.11202&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Plenty of parking space in it's own car park and no major gasworks this time so access is easy. As before the venue is free, so is tea and coffee. (on a help yourself basis) Time wise I suggest starting around 2pm and going on to around 6pm. Venue rules are No smoking in the premises and NO alcohol. Although all is free I feel it would be nice to have a donations box, the contents going to the Church for tea coffee etc. For those that missed it last time. There are two rooms to use. A large hall where most congregate and a smaller room which is for more quieter kit!!! Mudmover, thanks for the offer of drum kit but we already have a few available at the venue. If anyone wants to bring a drummer friend or guitarist they are welcome. I will likely have a drummer & guitarist around but if more come no worries, more jam sessions.

Jabba_the_gut Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 (edited) I've not been to one of these type of events before - sounds like a nice social event. Just curious really but what's the kind of set-up for the day? What sorts of stuff do folk bring with them and how many folk turn up?

Just a nice social time. People can bring as much kit as they like and turn up when they like. My practise room is at the Church so pretty much all my kit is there already. Ideally you bring your bass rig with you. Plug in wherever is convenient and make some deep sounds. Meet the people behind the avatars. Try out some other basses & amps etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemonCello Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Gelfin did a fine job or organising things last time and I'm sure it will be even better this time. Just check his twin neck bass out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
