obbm Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='324354' date='Nov 7 2008, 05:37 PM']Hi Folks, I'm pleased to say that I paid a cheque into Basschat coffers today for [b]£186.06[/b], which is half of the funds raised at September's Bash! The other half of the funds raised has been paid to 'Enable Me', the disability charity that I work for.. In total, over £500 was raised through the event which is amazing, but after paying for room hire and other costs on the day, the total raised for the good causes was just under £400! So this is a good opportunity for me to thank everybody who helped make it happen (especially Merton, WalMan & JohnnyLager) and also, a good opportunity to thank everybody else who either came to the Bash itself or who contributed by making donations etc. Cheers Nik[/quote] Well done Nik and team. An excellent result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merton Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 [quote name='Hamster' post='324569' date='Nov 7 2008, 10:49 PM']Looking forward to the South East Easter Bash! - hopefully next time I won't have to leave early for an audition. I now have access to a school with a purpose built 200 seat auditorium/theatre in Addlestone which might be a very good venue as long as members don't mind the next bash being so close to the last one?[/quote] Sounds good - could keep costs lower and allow for more charidee money possibly? Keep forgetting to ask how your audition went? [quote name='obbm' post='325259' date='Nov 9 2008, 01:30 PM']Well done Nik and team.

They thought his gigging contacts could help re-establish the band and generate more bookings. Ces't la vie. As for the venue, it looks like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
