Jimryan Posted October 23, 2013 Author Posted October 23, 2013 [quote name='The Axman' timestamp='1382556399' post='2253684'] The BassRelay has reached Cambourne.... and I have a gig in Cambourne on Friday (I play for both bands). Aqntbghd (Julian) has agreed to hand over the Bass to me for the night to play during this gig so we can pass the collecting tin around the pub and hopefully raise some money for this worthy cause! [/quote] And put the event details on the FB page too Quote

gapiro Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 I just saw on maid of ale page it's going to their next gig? I have a gig in Ely on the 10th. Is Julian the new MoA bassist? (I applied for an audition but they found someone before I got one haha ) Quote
Aqntbghd Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) No i'm not the next MoA bassist I've replaced Axman in chickens can't tho BTW, the relay will be in Greens coffee (and wine bar) tonight in Cambourne. Edited October 31, 2013 by Aqntbghd Quote
gapiro Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Ok, i'm not able to get there, I'm finding out if we can use it at our gig on the 10th.... because apparently it is a fundraiser for a charity theatre group they might not be particularly happy if I turn up asking for money for something else..... Quote
Donnyboy Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 ...... that's true, but even if they're a bit hesitant you could still take& play & have a blast!! I took it a pub gig and managed to raise, well, nothing... Quote
Aqntbghd Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 Here are the first pics of yesterday night it was a very quiet night at greens (halloween effect ?) but still the bass was played and money was collected for research for cancer. Will track people there for more pictures (including some of me playing the bass). So who wants to be next ? I can deliver the bass in a triangle between heathrow, stansted and cambridge [attachment=147344:1375852_542080819215696_332863836_n.jpg] [attachment=147345:1294502_542387169185061_547890096_o.jpg] Quote
4 Strings Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 Well done, Aqntbghd, looks like you did a great job! So long as the bass in the vicinity of London/Essex early Dec so I can have me mitts on it for the 14th December, is anyone taking up Le Baton? Quote
Aqntbghd Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 About 150£ were collected in these two Cambourne gig (and the previous one too). Everything donated on the just-giving page and.... WE'VE REACHED 50% of the objective !!!! Keep it going guys ! I know that 4Strings has a gig beginning of december but i'm sure we can do more in november. So... who's next ? Quote
