Great idea. Likewise no skin in the game here, I've always been booked on holiday for June 1st. A central London bass bash would be great - take in Bass Gallery, see how many basschatters can fit in the Wunjo basement, pub crawl around all the Bass Brewery pubs etc

Looking forward to your review!

Short notice I know, and I can't make it - but Invisible Airwaves are gigging tomorrow, Saturday April 5th at the Cavern in Raynes Park in south west London, a minute or two walk from Raynes Park station.

On the offchance you've not seen it, online only Bass Magazine is (maybe was) written by folk from the US BP staff, and is usually produced to the same high quality https://bassmagazine.com/issues/

What was properly jaw-dropping was £8.35 for a pint of 3.8% Metro session IPA (despite a false start soundwise, they sorted it out pretty quickly and yeah it sounded pretty good. Much better than last time at Heaven, not as good as the Jazz Cafe)

Have a look at Whitelands. They supported Slowdive on the recent reunion tour and are headlining Gazefest sometime this year.

I've been lucky enough to play at Yolanda's jam night at the Spice of Life. Her current band were the house band for the jam, so that's how scary it was. Also hugely recommended is the No Treble podcast/interview she did, https://www.notreble.com/buzz/2020/03/05/groove-episode-63-yolanda-charles/

Was there a Joshua Tree?

I am also here! Being unhip up squeezed against the beer fridge and coffee machine.

Ah yes now the Bass Day EU website says CLS Conference Centre as mentioned above. CLS = City of London School btw, https://www.cityoflondonschool.org.uk/ and some of the event spaces look pretty cool https://www.cityoflondonschool.org.uk/venue-hire/
