Midlands Bass Bash 2014 - With Pictures

[cytania]

Still getting inspired by Saturday, been playing 'Join Together (With The Band)' by the Who because of the tones [b]in-time-Nick[/b] got off his reliced Sandberg5 and pedal board effects rig. It was very Entwistle-esque with the whole bass-harmonica sound from Join Together's mid-section coming off the low B string. Oh and the octave+synth sound was a laugh as well. It was like an invisible DJ was there in the room scratching vinyl on invisible decks.

I'm coining a new word for it all - funspirational!

I'm just curious if any alembic basses where there and what anyone trying one out for the FIRST time thought about them?
I really wanted to come along and bring mine but I was gigging friday, didn't have time after travelling back on saturday.
I hope it went well.
Maybe I can get to a meetbup in the Midlands if there is another one.

We missed you Marcus, but in hindsight, it might be a good thing, as I'm trying to keep my Kingbass GAS in check :-)

Glad to see everyone had a great time. I was looking forward to it being my first bash, but the world had different plans for me and I ended up moving to London. Looked like a lot of fun and like there was plenty on offer to try out too!

Chris, you can come to the South East and/or Herts bashes now that you live in London

I've finally got round to collecting Roland Rock's photos from here and the Bass Relay thread, collating them and copying the relevant captions into a separate entry in my music blog:
