[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1334011263' post='1609773'] Someone died. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! [/quote] I'm sure we're all mostly amused by the randomness of the thread rather than at the fact that someone has died...

Nah not yet - it's something I realised may be useful after the London Bass Guitar Show. Lots of people wear them at work, too. I think I'm supposed to but I never do.

I've shared this on FB. Mental.

Yes funnily enough I've been talking to an Italian leather chap about some and also to a fabric embroiderer. There's two more things arriving soon though but both require more funds to purchase stock (these will be shipped by my assistant rather than the manufacturer). For some reason, sales of polos has almost totally dried up this month! No idea why... The new products are stickers and BC custom lanyards with ID card holder. Should be useful for meets and shows. I'm still waiting for a set of new features to be introduced on the site and to pay for those before I can afford any work in this area. I was hoping that by the end of next week I will know where I stand in this but let's just say I'm not holding my breath. Quite frustrating but I'm not going to rush anything because it has to be 100% right. Cheers for the suggestion and keep any others coming! Oh and I'm also getting T shirts designed.. Cheers ped

Great pics. SUCH a hard room to take photos in... LOADS of light coming in from the windows but really dark inside!

There should be a link with [img ] [url="http://blahblah"]http://blahblah[/url] [/img ] (without the spaces) written around the link. Copy and paste that here and voila. I had a great time and thanks for organising the day. It's bashes like this that make it such a friendly and welcoming community. Cheers ped P.s Joshua I'll sort the full image file for you tomorrow no probs

Great to see you all, sorry I couldn't stay longer. Here are some quick snaps! Feel free to say who you are because I forgot everyone's name, pretty much [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v164/pedullaman/EPSN0412.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v164/pedullaman/EPSN0388.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v164/pedullaman/EPSN0394.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v164/pedullaman/EPSN0395.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v164/pedullaman/EPSN0397.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v164/pedullaman/EPSN0399.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v164/pedullaman/EPSN0401.jpg[/IMG]

Great stuff. I'm massively impressed with the organisation. I'm still moving house on the 1st but will try and pop by at least. I'll just update the FB page with a reminder. ped

There's an update waiting for us which might sort it out. We will be looking at installing it and some other updates from Monday next week so I'll make a note of this thread. ped

Same here - does exactly what you say. Strange. Try turning it off and on again

Been knocking around for years, but never had/tried one myself. Amazing designs and some great innovations too. I had a page showing some of them but now lost the bookmark ped

I have a 1/4" jack AND a 13 pin MIDI jack on my bass because it has the Roland GK system installed. I always use the 13 pin jack because it's a solid connection, though I think the cables are more delicate.

Slapping only, by dood, with the spankatron

Yeah I think I did too, come to think of it.

Really like that idea. The bids bit could be complicated but there's no reason why we couldn't have some stuff brought by members to sell. Only thing is I'm not sure how the organisers would feel about it, some shows prefer you to be selling new gear and sometimes you aren't actually able to buy at all at the show itself (think that was the situation last year?) Thanks for the suggestion though, if it's allowed I think it's a good plan!

I'm speaking to BGM this week so I'll get dibs on a table early. Probably have some free stuff, some merch, a bass or two and a cattle prod to scare off Dood when he overstays his welcome. Perhaps also a laptop so we can force people to sign up on the spot. Or else. ped

I could pimp myself out during the noisy periods

[quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1331029469' post='1566408'] If there was a BC stand next year that would be an ideal place to meet up with others forum members. [/quote] Yeah, I'll see if I can swing it. Not sure how much it'll cost and no way of telling how much £ we'll have spare (spending a lot on some neat developments here on site). Perhaps I can blag a free table somewhere!

I think once we have the BC stickers in the shop in the next few weeks people could wear one on thier forehead or something. That might work. I'm also thinking about a BC branded lanyard with name tag holder for various BC events. Watch this space.

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1330949116' post='1565078'] You're clutterbucking with us [/quote] lol

Haha! Don't go there... We tried it and found we preferred people to explain their like or dislike. Better arguments that way. ped

[quote name='fluffo' timestamp='1330944643' post='1564975'] A good day out although that Nigel Clutterbuck was nothing short of a pain in the arse, Not only was he doing his usual percusive nonesence that was way to loud, that aint bass playing ,don't get me wrong I love a bit of slap but do it as it is intended, he didn't even stay on his own stool he tried other stuff on the other stools and was just generally polluting everybody elses space. I bet if you sat him down and said I don't know er "play Dock of the bay" you would see a blank face. Not a good ad for Rotosound. I spoke to Jason on the Roto stand and said "why do you bring him?". I wanted to get him a warwick t shirt with the big W on it, I thought it could stand for something else for the day. Has anyone ever seen him play in a band or with anyone else, No well that says something!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A great day ruined by a NOB!!!!!!!!!!!! [/quote] I remember similar posts from other events. Apparently he's a very talented bassist and just does that kind of thing at shows because some people like it. Unfortunately any tight sweet bassline would be totally lost in the noise as previously mentioned so you're kind of damned if you do and damned if you don't to some extent. But yeah, enough! ped
