That's a shame Bottle - have a fun family do!
[/quote]
I'll try! It's my great aunts 90th that week, so all the family are gathering for a proper knees-up

[Chris Sharman]

As I have a gig that night (400 yards from my house - win!) I will now not be away on holiday that week. Nor then, will Mrs S be away. Therefore we can confirm our attendance. I may bring with me the Westone Thunder that Andy Rogers worked his magic on.

...and yes, there will be cake.



Lots of cake.

[GrammeFriday]

Hallelujah!

Are you supporting UK Subs again, Chris?

[Roland Rock]

Great news, really looking forward to it.

[Bassjon]

Not sure if i have a gig. If not i will come. Can I get pissed and act like a fool?

It's at a college, so I'm guessing alcohol will be a no no. Acting the fool seems pretty par for the course though ;-)

[Bassjon]

^ Fair enough!

[Andyjr1515]

Yes - count me in. I'll be coming along with Chris Sharman and Jo (Mrs S).

I'll bring my (avatar) veneered Squier VM Jaguar and, if I can prise it out of our bassist's clutches, the Jack Bruce Thumb 4 fretless tribute build.

Andy

[bassbiscuits]

I'm up for this too - just round the corner from me. I had planned to come last year but it all went tits up at last minute and spent the day in leicester royal infirmary instead.

Better luck this time eh?

I can bring a USA P or J bass, and if needed amp wise, a Little Mark head and Schroeder 1210 cab. I'll see if Mrs Bassbiscuits can rustle up a bass-related cake too....

Or indeed some actual bass biscuits.

Lovely stuff.

Ooh. The Aria SB-1000 has been lacquered today. It might just make the bash...

[KevB]

I can now confirm that I definitely [b]can't[/b] make it as I have family commitments that day. Looks like you will not be short of attendees anyway so have a great day guys.

[Grangur]

I'm in too... I'll be coming from Stansted way. As it's 2 hours away, is there anyone else from this direction who'd like to share a car?

I'd bring a Warwick Streamers or a Corvette, but it seems to be a few of those about. I can bring a G&L SB-2 Tribute.

[speshul91]

I might have to try and come along and bring my 4 string and my 5 when I get it if I could get a lift from Nottingham

[/quote]

I should have room, although as co-organiser I'll be going earlier to set up and staying later to tidy up. If you can get to Bulwell, then the offer is there, just send a PM

[Dave_the_bass]

It's looking like the plans I had for this day have just exited my calendar so, tentatively, I'm going to pop along and meet some people.

I have plans in the evening that will involve me having to be home by the time this finishes but I'll probably pop down for a couple of hours and a coffee.

Cheers

Dave

I've just pulled the trigger on a Fender Rumble 500 Combo, so add that to the list

Edit: And the Aria SB-1000 is looking promising...

Fender Rumble has arrived so will be there for all to try

[Norris]

Ooh! And there's progress on the SB1000 refinish. It's looking hopeful that it'll be there

[Eboclive]

I should make it.

Came to the last one, enjoyed the cake especially.

Don't know what to bring with me, though.
Wal 5 string, Fretless LTD Edition Warwick $$, NS Design WAV?

[Chris Sharman]

It is now pretty much confirmwd that I shall also be bringing a couple of basses with me. My Westone Thunder 3 fretless that appeared here recently in ANdy Rogers thread and a Fender Precision that has recently come into my possession. More on that to come in another of Andy's threads I feel...

And Cake!!!
