[quote name='cheddatom' post='169850' date='Apr 4 2008, 02:51 PM']Ahhh, I went to see the bluetones once. They were really good, and I think I bought a CD which would have had similar art on (or the same thing?). I doubt i'd be able to find it though.[/quote]

i think every cover they did since 'luxembourg' has been scotts (in a feeble attempt to get back on topic, he's the bass player ) work. the artwork we have up here is mostly from album and singles covers:



sorry for the naff pictures, had to take with my phone, and its very sunny today.

[quote]Knitting is apparently theraputic. I personally imagine it's as stressful as an old computer game that can't be saved at any point e.g Sonic where you get so close to the end and then die one too many times - 'cos I think with knitting you have to keep going without "dropping a stitch".[/quote]

we managed to go from a bassbash meeting in nottingham, to knitting. impressive, i think.

I can knit and have several pointy sticks but we won't be able to make this as Tinman will still be in the States.

[mewsie]

cheddatom - WOW. thats extreme knitting. i do like things done to extreme, or on a large scale, so that gets a thumbs up from me.

mrs tinman - thats a shame

Yep, we missed the Northampton bash for the same reason, flippin' globetrotting husbands

There'll be another we can get to at some point, I'm sure

Mewsie - do you partake in extreme ironing by any chance?

You two are very much alike

Mewsie and I?

Is this based on our apparent inability to identify an iron in a line-up of small household electrical appliances?

[quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='169662' date='Apr 4 2008, 10:14 AM']JohnGH will have to keep the Status end up, as it were [/quote]


I most certainly will ! I think the Status S2 5er will make it to this bash as well.

its ok to mix an iron and a kettle up when you want to make a cup of tea, but it doesn't work the other way round.

I was about to bump this! I'm not sure now though, I have to get my girlfriend to figure out if she's working or not, if not I may have to go to france instead!

[KevB]

Looks like I now have visitors staying over that weekend so no go for me, hope it works out though guys.

[EntropicLqd]

I'll open negotiations with the Mrs and see if I can come along. Normally it wouldn't be a problem but she's already booked an evening out ....

[budget bassist]

We need more people

Also would anyone be interested in my ashdown EB180 stack if i brought it or should i not bother? (i realise i haven't got it yet but i will by sunday)

lwtait and me are still both planning to go!

I'll bring my Mark Bass combo, and probably MIA Jazz with audrere pre, Ibanez ATK 5 string, and Corvette $$. If anyone is interested I could bring a fretless Precision, plus my 70s reissue P with EMGs.

Looking forward to it!

[BigRedX]

I'll be there!

Anyone have any preferences as to what basses I'm going to bring form the list I posted earlier?

Or I shall I just surprise you all?

[Dread Bass]

im still def coming
