mangotango Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 Bury is good - not too far from my bit of Essex. Depending on dates, I could be talked into this (probably quite easily in fact). 2 Quote

jonunders Posted April 12, 2019 Author Posted April 12, 2019 Fear not I have plans to go to the LBGS aswell Quote

The Hunter Club in Bury St Eds is nice, they don''t seem to do much with the rooms in the day, so I'll happily have a word and see if one can be wangled.... Bury is probably a good shout geographically. I've played at the Hunter Club, don't really have a sense if the rooms there would be big enough for what we need (how many typically attend?), the main room is a good size and acoustic though. I know a chap that uses it very regularly for jazz gigs, it works well and I'm happy to get in touch with him for a line on pricing, contacts etc if we think that might be a goer. Looking forward to it! Edited April 12, 2019 by andybassdoyle Quote

Not too close in location but may be a similar distance for those based in Nth London, Essex, Herts. Just sayin' Quote
Cosmicrain Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 Depending on what date/s I'd love to attend and to bring down some new Zoots and Funkmeisters, It would give me a chance to support the charity as well. Bury is not to far from me if I go across country via Halstead from Silver end. Quote
jonunders Posted April 12, 2019 Author Posted April 12, 2019 I have provisionally booked The Limeburners in Offton for the 19th October. It's free, and available from morning through to 4 PM ish. We can then sort out live music in the evening to raise some money for charity / charities.If anyone has a band( I do) or solo who are willing to play in evening can they let me know. There is a local band who may be willing to attend. They have a resturant/ pub meals available for those who want to stay on for evening Jono 1 Quote

jonunders Posted April 12, 2019 Author Posted April 12, 2019 Would it be advantageous to see if there are free dates in November? Quote
Jabba_the_gut Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 Unfortunately this one is too far for me but I would highly recommend going to anyone of any ability with any type of kit to go as these are really enjoyable social events. Always nice to meet fellow bass players and try out lots of different kit. Have a good day! Quote
jonunders Posted April 12, 2019 Author Posted April 12, 2019 I have booked The Limeburners for Saturday 2nd November. Might I suggest the BB starts around 10 am and will be wound up by 3-3,30 . Hopefully there will be enough intrest for live music in the evening. If anyone wants to do a talk or hold a class then please let me know Looking forward to meeting you all Jono Quote

bassfan Posted April 14, 2019 Posted April 14, 2019 I can probably make the day but not the evening.... soooo... what’s everyone bringing along? Quote
jonunders Posted April 14, 2019 Author Posted April 14, 2019 We have access to the resturant area before it opens for the evening. 1 Quote
jonunders Posted April 15, 2019 Author Posted April 15, 2019 (edited) Really, I didn't know that there had been any. Edited April 15, 2019 by jonunders Quote

redbandit599 Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 Ooh - not far from me. Will see how my diary pans out later in the year but interested 😀 Quote
