West Midlands Bass Bash - 27th November !


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I was hoping to sneak down for this as my band aren't rehearsing this Sun. Then I got drawn into going to see Deep Purple (ironically in B'ham) so I can't make it either :) Have a good thrash all of you attending. Oh and remember, if there are no photos it didn't happen!

Tonyf can't make it, his other half will string him up otherwise. Deezbar is paying us a flying visit though. Small and cozy gathering then :)

Ah well, be nice to put faces to names anyway; shall be driving over, dumping gear then taking car home again so there WILL be some nice steady drinking going on :)

TAXI!!!! :)

Nah, early-ish finish so I'll hopefully be able to leave my cab(s) and drum kit at the venue, bus home and go back & get 'em Monday, otherwise it's less than a tenner in a cab, well worth it for the option of knocking a few back whilst being a right noisy bastard :)

Good job too - load of beer and then going to guitarguitar/PMT isn't a good mix :)

I'm going to be off line for a few days now, so this is just a quikc post to give this thread a bit of a bump.
And to say.. looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday. Even if there are just a few of us I think it will be fun.

Just in case everyone needs to know what TRBboy looks like now...this was taken this morning

Hey guys, I'd love to come. Is it far from New Street train station? I think I'd only be able to bring one bass with me as I'd be getting the train.

It's a twenty-ish minute walk from New St. Five minutes or so by taxi.

Also five minutes from Snow Hill, if you can get there to make things easier.

A quick shout for those coming, if anyone's able to get a loan of a crash/ride cymbal for the afternoon it's finish the kit off nicely; I was SURE I'd be able to lay hands on a decent one in time but it seems to not be in the stars.
Not a problem, shall be able to use my cheapy 16" spare Stagg crash but it's REALLY not the best-sounding thing (not that I imagine most of us care), just a thought in case anyone's got one kicking around (and if anyone knows of a 50s/60s/70s 18" Ziljian Avedis going sub-£100 do let me know :)).
