Excellent stuff. I'll be walking around with my two cameras, taking photos and vids of the event, and also taking photos of the photographer taking photos of you guys... Big thanks to Si for manning the photobooth, TimR for the backdrop, and Mick for the idea.

Thanks guys! Tthe June issue has the first 'real' article about Basschat. I had a look around last month. If you're not subscribed, the paper copy can usually be found at the larger newsagents near train stations etc., but less often on the high street.

I'll tweet this tomorrow for maximum exposure

Unfortunately Bassace has had to excuse himself (see a few posts above).

Thanks Mick - Facebook event text updated

Thanks for that. I've now answered the questionnaire but I must say I wouldn't use the service offered. Good luck if you decide to go ahead.

Incidentally, has it been decided how much the entry fee is going to be? The question has been asked on Facebook.

Facebook event now up! [url="https://www.facebook.com/events/1583139738605524/"]https://www.facebook.com/events/1583139738605524/[/url]

Have fun and take photos! We could publish them on my blog like we did last year, if you like.

If I can offer a suggestion, to make things easier both for you and for your potential interviewees, you might perhaps first create a questionnaire and give us the link, either publicly on this thread or privately via PM, and at the end of it ask if any of the respondents would be happy to talk further either by phone or chat etc. and ask for a contact.

Thanks Rob

Another cracking gig at the Black Horse in Greenford on early May Bank Holiday Saturday! [url="https://flic.kr/s/aHsk7hJnEd"]https://flic.kr/s/aHsk7hJnEd[/url]

Thank you all for your kind words! The printed mag hits the shelves on Tuesday 5th (my birthday!) - you won't find it before then. Subscribers received the paper issue in the mail a couple of days ago.

Bank Holiday weekend gig at this lovely Fullers pub by the canal. It's also my birthday weekend (although the actual day is Tuesday). Would be nice to see some of you locals!

Thanks guys! The Basschat column is Joel McIver's brainchild, and I'm happy to be providing it to the mag, and spreading the word about this community. Watch that space
