I'll make sure I get this on the Facebook asap, or at a more hospitable time of day so more people see it.. :D

I [i]might[/i] be able to make it up. I'm in the wrong part of the Midlands really, but there's a chance I can get a lift and it'll be nice to show off my Alpher bass, although it might not be to everyone's tastes.. ;)

Great to see BC social media posse in full effect!
The location was chosen to be as central as possible. It should be an hour or less from Birmingham, Nottingham, Derby, Coventry, Northampton and Milton Keynes (and Leicester of course).
Would be good to see you :-)

Aah right... I fail. Would beers be appropriate?
[/quote]

Hi,
Soz, I just checked with the school and they said no. I suppose they don't want students to find random beers in their classroom :-D


I failed to realise that you needed to copy and paste the list too, so don't feel too bad!
Updating with my gear:


1. Si600 - No gear, I expect to be too busy and I've nothing exotic or interesting!
2. Roland Rock - '78 P, W&T Ergon 5, Rocket Rig or GlockenRig
3. 4-string-thing -
4. Pantherairsoft -
5. KevB - Tea and biscuits
6. Doyle - V940, ME-20B, Random self build
7. intime-nick - maybe my Shuker, Sandberg, rack & pedalboard etc

If anyone lives (or can get) near Bulwell/Junction 26, I'll be driving from there down to the bash at around 10:30. I'll have spare room for three people, one smallish rig, and two or three basses.
I'll be staying at the end to tidy up etc, so may not get back to Nottingham till around 18:30

PM me if you're interested

If no one is interested, I'll just bring both my rigs :-D

I'll bring my Roscoe LG V Signature, far too many effects pedals and pending on the transport arrangements my Barefaced/EBS rig. Can't promise the rig will come along though I'm afraid.

We can look at hiring an extra room for your pedals :-D



Numbers looking good so far. FYI we need 22 attendees to break even, so sign up people!

I've added myself below and I've also added Norris as he couldn't cut and paste from his phone.

I haven't got much to bring. I just looking forward to meeting a few new faces and having a chat. I'll bring the Fender P anyway. :)

Thanks (from my PC this time :))

Edit: I'll also chase up my friendly restorer to see if my Aria SB-1000 will be ready in time...

I'll try make it. But not definite. If ever I can, I won't be able to bring any gear as I don't drive and only probably going by train. Just me and my camera if ever. ;)

A camera would be great. It would be lovely to have some pictures. I'm sure bluejay would blog them or tweet them or whatever if you were OK with that.

I won't necessarily just be providing coffee/tea/milk/biccies, if there's anything I have stashed away that no one else is bringing and might be of use then I'll see what I can do closer to the date but I have a fairly small collection and most things will be already covered. If it hasn't been sold by then maybe the active USA precision deluxe, don't see a vast number of those around? Also in other larger bass gatherings some folks have brought along gear that they wanted to sell, I assume this is still allowed irrespective of the new BC sales [s] tax[/s] policy? if its only a small number then chances are slim of actually offloading anything but don't see an issue with people pitching up with unwanted pedals and other bits? Maybe someone can bring along a PAT tester and we can get all our gear done for a year? ;)
