South East Bass Bash No.12, Saturday 29th September 2018!


Hamster

Recommended Posts

OK, I've finally had the confirmation I was waiting for! :)

I'm pleased to confirm that the fantastic Richard Searle of seminal Acid Jazz group 'Corduroy' will be popping down to have a chat about his career, gear choices, life on the road, technique, influences etc and hopefully give a demo or two too.....!

If you're unfamiliar with his bass work then check out some of his best known grooves on their debut album Dad Man Cat here: Corduroy - Dad Man Cat
Think funky 70's instrumental theme tunes and you're somewhere near their style.... 😉

Thanks for this, Gary. I confess I wasn't really too familiar with Corduroy but have checked out at least half-a-dozen of their vids on Youtube and you're right when you say "...think funky 70's instrumental theme tunes...". Great stuff! I look forward to seeing/meeting Richard on the day. :)

Hey Folks
 
I hope that this is an over-sight by many who plan to attend but haven't put their name down yet, but if there are going to be less than 20 attendees I fear for future events.
 
Not sure how the Organisers of the event feel (Colin and Nik really) but I'm a bit concerned about the apparent limited level of enthusiasm for this years event.
 
I appreciate that many people can't make the event for a variety of genuine reasons but if these events don't generate enough interest or money to make them viable then we run the risk of losing them. We didn't even try to put on the Herts Bash this year after the lack of interest in last years and nobody asked why.
 
Historically the SE Bash has been a great day out, access to lots of high end gear you don't find in shops, interesting seminars, lots of like minded musicians and a chance to put faces to avatars of people we speak to regularly but rarely meet. Check the feedback from previous events, no negative feedback (well, maybe a bit about the saga the raffles turn into) and everybody has a good day out.
 
These events don't just happen, there's far more work involved than you'd think, and as I said, if they aren't financially viable they won't happen again. We rely on your support to keep these going. I, for one, will be sad if these events cease to exist. It's one of the few times in the year that I get to talk to people who are actually interested in my instrument of choice.
 
Come on folks, let's make this event another great day out and let the Organisers know that we appreciate their efforts!!
