South East Bass Bash, Saturday 27th September: NEW INFO!

[Sibob]

I'm going to TRY and make it! Came last year!
I have a gig in North East London that night, and it's also the London Tattoo Convention that weekend (although looks like I'll be going on Sunday now).
So mark me down as a maybe!

If I come, i'll be bringing my new Drop C Jazz, it'll definitly be finished by then!
Could bring my trusty USA Jazz, simply because it's an awesome specimen IMO, but people would probably be more interested in seeing/playing my lakkie 44-02D (which might be for sale then). To be honest, If I've got a gig, I might just take my rig and go straight there after!

I bow to your superior knowledge and experience in these matters..!![/quote]

Well, beards aren't my thing really. Call me old fashioned, but that's the way I am

Anyway, I was told at a tender age to avoid keyboard players at all costs. Something I guess we could all live by

I'm also considering doing that, but it'll be quite a trek for me. Could anyone spare me trawling through the thread to find out what sort of times the bash is likely to be starting and finishing? Cheers if you can off the top of your heads, tell me to go jump and stop being lazy if you can't!

I think my gig that night is in Cambridge so it's not as far back as home...

Starts 10am, finished by 6pm
