Thanks for this. It was a bugger to find. Looks like you have to register (free)

I would be going down but I'm down in London for Iggy Pop the night before so doubt I'll make it back to Brum in time!

For those who don't know of Dave though, he's a monster player and a super nice guy so it'll be well worth heading down and sponging some knowledge and getting some free strings!

That's right, you have do have to register. I have done this, although I suspect they only want it so that they can try to flog you stuff later!

I shouldn't think they'd turn anyone away who just turned up, because they'll be wanting people to buy things.

Hopefully see you Saturday.

Hopefully see you there Seashell. I will be wearing a radish in my lapel and carrying a copy of the beano to help you identify me

So my digs fell through for Iggy so I'm having to catch a red eye coach from London back to Brum, so I'm toying with coming now! I'd be tired getting back at about 4 but everytime I've wanted to see Steve I've had tickets to something else! Ahhh!

[adamlunt]

I'll be there! Pop in to the Roland area and say hi.

Funkle Dave is a lovely fella and a fabulous player. But the downside is that he's a southpaw which only adds to the mysticism. lol

I ought to wear my BC lanyard, but I'd feel a bit self conscious.

[Machines]

I'll be there too. Look for a moody looking tall guy.

I would wear my BC polo shirt but I can't be bothered to iron it.

Ironing is for squares, man.

I went for white with black stripes.

I still don't know who you are! I was one of the four or five women there. I was sitting next to another woman. I was the one with the Lemmy shoulder bag. :-)

[Machines]

I was sat front left in my own. I asked if he'd ever got so far into a loop and wondered how to escape.

My Daughter had other plans, so I spent the afternoon in 'Airspace'

I wondered why no-one was wearing a radish.
