StevieC Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Hi, I'll turn up on 27th - It sounds like the community centre is still to be confirmed - is that the case? BTW - My other half's calling me a saddo. Let me know the score re a venue and I'll turn up with all my stuff (and the usual low level of talent - Don't let me use it all up as I have a gig the following night) Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wateroftyne Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Reet Unfortunately, the Community Centre is booked next Thursday. It's a shame 'cos it's only 20 quid, witch a great load-in and a room big enough to let the notes bloom a bit! So.. unless we want to change the date, it looks like MBB! Over to you, Mr. Hunt...

Over to you, Mr. Hunt...[/quote] We have option 2 or 3 then! Option 2 - My school which is free (cost wise) and available from 6.30 till 9.00 but is a bit of a carry in (WoT has been before so can flesh out the carry in and room acoustics in comparison to Opt 3 where he has rehearsed before). Option 3 - MBB which is a bit more expensive than I thought (£18 for 2 hours) and can be had from 6.00 - 8.00 OR 8.00 - 10.00 (as of tonight still available for either time) and is an easier carry in. I'm absolutely fine with either, what do folks reckon? Edited November 18, 2008 by warwickhunt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD1 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Hopefully I'll be able to get there. I'm in Shipley that day but will strive for, nay insist on an early finish. Still want to try that Thunderfunk... Can bring my GK1001RBII (but you know what they sound like) and my EPI UL310 (ditto) and the Pentabuzz.

bassoctopus Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 (edited) Either for me. There's going to be at least 3 of us, so at worst it's only going to be £6 each, not worth worrying about really. Would be interested to try a GK. I saw Extreme last night and Pat Badger's bass sound was superb. 3 x GK 8x10s Couldn't see his rack, so not sure what amps he was using.

warwickhunt Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 By my reckoning we have; Big Al Stevie C Bass Oct JPJ WoT JD1 Me Is that about the size of it? If so then even at £18 it's less than £2.50 each or the school for free with a slightly longer carry! If you're feeling clever Neil you can stick a poll at the top (inc whether a 6-8 or 8-10 slot is best) of the thread then people don't feel pressured by a public vote. Ideally I'd like to let Mark at MBB know tomorrow so that we can secure a time slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warwickhunt Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I'll PM folks the address, post code and my mobile number. It'd be good to have an idea of basses/amps/cabs that will be there, if anyone fancies just turning up gearless and just having a bit of craic that's fine. No need to bring loads of basses but it'd be nice to have a bit of variety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
