MiltyG565 Posted August 23, 2013 Posted August 23, 2013 James, does your camera take videos or anything? might be a good idea to record a small segment of the meet-up as well as take a couple of photos If you could get him on camera endorsing the relay, that could go a long way! Quote
Jimryan Posted August 23, 2013 Author Posted August 23, 2013 Don't worry Milton, already thought of that and I'm working out the best way to do it (where I don't know how long I'll have). Quote

Bassman Sam Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 The relay bass gets played by another old slapper. [size=4] [/size] Quote
MiltyG565 Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 This is really cool! It makes me excited for the future! God speed, relay bass! God speed.... Quote
Jimryan Posted August 25, 2013 Author Posted August 25, 2013 I've yet to check myself, but apparently, we've made it into the Sunday mirror. Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) No mention of Basschat, but good stuff nevertheless... Edited August 25, 2013 by bluejay Quote
SpaceChick Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 That is sooooo cool If it comes to South Wales I'd love to join in! Quote
TimR Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 It seems more a case of keeping an eye on where it is and where it's going next and shouting out for it. We managed to grab it on its way through from Derbyshire to Portsmouth. I guess it's in London at the moment. Is anyone organising a list or is it just shout out who wants it next? Quote

[/quote] Hi Tim, It's still with me in Portsmouth at the moment. On September the 8th I'm taking it to Peter Hook in Bristol and after that it'll be heading back to London. Quote
TimR Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 Does it have gigs lined up in London? Bristol sounds very close to South Wales Quote
Jimryan Posted August 28, 2013 Author Posted August 28, 2013 It's heading back London way for a meet up with Dave Swift and Guy Pratt and following that the SE bass bash I believe Quote
TimR Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 Sounds good. Is Shell going with you to meet Guy? She really should, if its possible. Quote

TimR Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 Did Mark play it on stage and say anything or was it just a backstage thing? Quote
Jimryan Posted August 28, 2013 Author Posted August 28, 2013 Na, it was just a backstage thing, but still pretty awesome Quote
yepmop Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 When it's finally done it's rounds I think we should organise an BassChat evening (with all profits going to the charity) in Portsmouth to welcome it back home. Hire venue somewhere in the city and than have an open Bass night where everyone gets to play the "Relay Bass" along with a music quiz, live music (your band? + any others) + recorded music (disco run by us) plus any anything else, charge for entry tickets etc open to everyone could be a good night :-). Quote
iamtheelvy Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 Saying that though, when do we call it a day for this bass? Providing it keeps working and doesn't fall apart, this could go on and on! Quote
TimR Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 I'm assuming we have to break the existing or set a new world record. There's a couple of mentions at the beginning of the thread but with 40pages to wade through I'm no sure where we are at the moment. 'Only' 18 players so far? Quote
