Dang, that's still nice that! Wouldn't mind a play on it! I'll be bringing both my Bass Collections (with a mind to sell if anyone's interested) and if I have room, also my Tanglewater. I'll have my Ashdown 220 Touring amp too if there's space.

Ok chaps, Jo Burt ex Sabbath, Queen, Freddie Mercury and others, will be coming to the bash. He's a nice chap and has some great road trip stories. I thought, if people were interested, Jo might have 20 mins to share some stories and answer any questions any if us have about working with some Divas!
I've asked him to bring along a bass or two that had some "stories".
[/quote]
That's great, did Jo play bass or guitar with those bands?

Update re the Venue. They will be doing Sunday Lunches and the " normal" type of pub food "Scampi", "sandwiches" etc so do please support them as we are getting the venue F.O.C.

There will be a collection jar too, it would be good if everyone could make a contribution to either/and support a Charity of Jo Burt's choice or the pub, who like many licensed venues at the moment finding things tough!

Also the first 10 Basschatters through the door will be getting some Basschat "[s]crap" [/s]memorabilia!

Due to some optimism regarding the post to down here, the promised Basschat Heirlooms for the first 10 through the door will not hit Dorset till at least Monday. Apologies and I hope that will not stop people attending!

I'm sure the venue will let people sleep over so they can get the Basschat wares on Monday.

My wife is from Shrewton and the the biggest excitement they had recently was the local Co-op doing a refurb....!

Hi - Just joined this group after hearing about the South-West gathering when I was at Mansons Guitar Show today. I dont live too far from Milborne Port so thought I might pop in. What happens at these events - chatting, buying/selling, playing?
[/quote]

Welcome!
What happens? All those things.
Very chilled, have a gander at people's gear, maybe have a play on it too, chat. It's in a pub, so maybe a pint and a pie?
Look forward to seeing you tomorrow.

John

Not sure if there is space in the car for this but if anyone wants it I (we) can try and bring it.

Back home now. The family had lunch at the pub (good prices) and then left to have a wander around Sherborne. I had a whale of a time trying out all the lovely gear and was particularly impressed by a great-sounding Sandberg that I'll never be able to afford, but never mind.
A big thanks to John (oldslapper) and Yorks5stringer for all their good work in organizing everything.

I'll try to bring an amp and a cab next year!
