I'd prefer not to fly with a bass, but the ferry+train is more expensive than that, and takes far longer. Quote
peted Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 Can I ask what the parking situation will be like? How far between the car park and the booked rooms? Do we have any stairs to contend with? Thank you. Quote

I'll give the hotel a call tonight to see if I can get answers for the last two questions, if the answers don't appear here first... P.S. silverfoxnik: Please can you add the room names to the original post on the front page? Clandon Suite 1 & 2. Thanks Edited July 4, 2008 by peted Quote
coasterbass Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 Bizarrely I can report that the load in/out situation for the Travelodge is pretty good, as we actually played a wedding gig there last year Quote

coasterbass Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 Well spotted... just trying to throw you all Yes, the wedding was at the Holiday Inn, then we stayed at the Travelodge down the road. No expense spared! Quote

Gamble Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 I should be all good for this provided my studio time doesn't get bumped back a week, which is possible. Damn famous people paying full price, think they're better than me....... grrrrr..... I'll bring my Boss SYB-5 too, and see if anyone knows how to make it actually sound cool! Quote

phil_the_bassist Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Is anyone bringing along pedalboards? I've just dived headfirst into the world of effects, and I'd like to see what you guys think of/can do with my newly aquired effects! I'll bring it along with my rig if you want! Quote

I'll also have my RIM Custom 5 with me, plus my old Warwick Streamer which should be a tapewound funk machine by then. Alex Quote
peted Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 My Omni10 is getting very close to competion, so is likely to make it to the Bash. I just hope it sounds as good as I hope it will. Quote
peted Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 The Omni10 is finished, sounding great, and will definitely be accompanying me to the Bash Quote

[/quote] I am very interested to hear what these Genz Benz Shuttles are like. If possible, I'd like to try an array of those small-light amps through this cab to hear what they sound like (Little Mark II/250/F1, Eden WT260, Genz Benz Shuttle, Ashdown Little Giant). Quote

There's been a lot of discussion on the Forum about these BFM designs that I'm really looking forward to hearing one Quote
Jesus Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 This sounds awesome... Although i will not have anything worth bringing myself. What should I expect from the day, i have no idea how these Bash's work? Quote

Eat & drink with fellow forumites. Join in when we all play Rush's XYZ at the same time together. When boozed up enough, pick a side and join in the "Warwick.v.Fender" punch up at the end.

Jesus Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Sounds good to me, another date in my calendar. I used to live 10mins from Guildford si it'll be nice n' nostalgic. If theres a Corvette $$, a Bongo, and a Traben present i'll be well chuffed! Quote
