South East Bass Bash No.7, Surrey, Saturday 21st September 2013

[silverfoxnik]

Hi Folks,

It's that time of year again when special things are happening or are about to happen; Andy Murray has finally ended the 77 years of hurt, JoseMourinho is back at Chelski, SAF has finally retired and more important than all that of course is the fact that we've finally set a date for the next Bash!

So dust off your brilliant basses, your amazing amps, your cacophonous cabs and all your weird / geeky bass FX, and bring it all down to the..

[b]South East Bass Bash No.7[/b]

As ever, we've been so inspired by all the other totally brilliant Basschat Bashes that have been happening around the country that we want to see you all again, make a lot of noise, have a brilliant time and raise a few [b]£££s[/b] for good causes!

So, for your delectation and enjoyment, here are the details you need to know:


Date: [b]Saturday 21 September 2013[/b]
Time: [b]10am - 5pm[/b]
Venue: [b]Jubilee High School, Surrey, School Lane, Addlestone, Surrey KT15 1TE[/b]
Venue link: [url="http://www.jubileehigh.surrey.sch.uk/"][color=#0f72da]Jubilee High School Website[/color][/url]
[url="http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=504208&y=164434&z=0&sv=KT15+1TE&st=2&pc=KT15+1TE&mapp=map.srf&searchp=ids.srf"][color=#0f72da]MAP LINK[/color][/url]

[b]Format:[/b] 1 x general area to set up your gear, plus 1 x quiet room/workshop area with workshops through the day, plus Jamming room, plus cafeteria, plus Raffle

[b]Spaces:[/b]
The Quiet Room and the Theatre for Workshops
The Jamming Room for jamming with drummers (and other strange non-bass playing people)
Main Hall (where you can set up your gear)

[b]Cost:[/b] [b]£10[/b]
Last year, it cost about £185 for the hire of the venue plus an amount for some public liability insurance cover therefore to cover those basic costs, we need to charge £10 per head entrance fee to one and all!

[b]Charities:[/b] [u]We will donate all profits[/u] from the day to a worthy cause or two (details to be confirmed):

[b]Refreshments[/b] will be available on the day for a small charge of course which will help increase the profits and keep everyone happy! Last year Hamster & Mrs Hamster did all the work on that and have offered to do so again, so many thanks in advance to them!

[b]Workshops[/b]
As ever, we are looking for offers from people to run workshops...so any ideas/requests are welcomed.

[b]Please Help[/b]
What would be really helpful from everyone who's interested in participating on the day is:

1. Donations of raffle prizes
2. Ideas/requests for the workshops
3. Volunteers to help out on the day (if needs be)

It's always good to know who's coming and what gear they'll be bringing so to get the ball rolling here's a list of the people we know who are coming:

It'd be great to have loads of people there on the day but the bottom line is that, to make this event pay for itself and to be able to donate something to charity, [b]we need a minimum of 30 people[/b]...

So, come on folks; sign up!!

Thanks and we look forward to seeing you there

Thank you Nick (and Colin and Mrs) - I am tweeting this as we speak, will retweet periodically, and obviously plan to be there and write my customary photoblog about the day.

I'm still left with some BC lanyards to give to ticket-paying punters, and hopefully I'll find some more prizes for the raffle (I used all I had in the previous raffles!).

7. Clarky - probably something double bass-shaped as there will be plenty of fenders on display!

[Russ]

I'm in. Hopefully I won't get stuck on the M25 for four hours like last year.

Nik, is Paul the Drums coming again this year? If so, I'm happy to contribute guitar duties in the Jam Room.

[Kiwi]

I'll come if I can grab a lift with someone from West London. I won't have oodles of gear to bring either...for a change.

[seashell]

Oh dear, I won't be able to make it this time. That weekend I have a reunion planned with my old Uni flatmates. One of them is coming over from Africa, so it's not possible to re-schedule.
But I hope to see some of you at LGBS next year!

[xilddx]

That's a shame Shell

[Dropzone]

[sup]11. Dropzone Mike - I will be bringing a Korn K5 with tired Dr Neon Strings. Am keen to try a Portaflex Amp with a Barefaced Cab, perhaps a Super 12 ;-)[/sup]

[Dropzone]

Am also hoping someone will do a session on Reaper, VSt/i & Midi.

I've asked MacDaddy if he's coming. If he is, then he should be able to bring Paul (the Junkyard Dogs have a gig in Barnes that evening).

[Lozz196]

No gigs at present that day, so assuming I don`t get any, I`ll be there.

Markbass CMD 121P combo & NY121 cab added to the list. And a Precision.

[51m0n]

12. 51m0n: I hope to be there with all the usual old nonsense (see sig)

Have to check the diary though, Plux is off to Uni around then I think and I may be on lift duties....

[Low End Bee]

I have a big birthday the day before. I will be too hungover to contemplate leaving the house/police cell/brothel I'm afraid.
Have a good one all/ I'll make it one year.

[Silvia Bluejay]

@ Shelley - what a shame, indeed. Hope to see you on another occasion soon.
@ Ad - Oooo, checked your FB profile, you're less than a year ahead of me on that big birthday! I'll flood your page with birthday wishes at the right time.

I'll make sure my blog will make those who can't make it in person feel like they were there nonetheless
