jonunders Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 It does seem that there is very little interest in this, if things do not pick up soon I will have no choice but to cancel this. I have to travel at least 2 hours. Any thoughts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peted Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Sorry I only occasionally lurk on the forum now. This one sounds great and close to me in Essex. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mangotango Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 If available on the date, I could bring a couple of Spectors, Genz Benz Amplification, maybe even the Aria EUB. I might also bring @Stingray5 if he's not too busy!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still waiting to hear 😕 That said, I note there still may not be quite enough bodies overall to make it viable (only 7 on last showing)...?

TheGreek Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Venue; " THE LIMEBURNERS" WILLISHAM ROAD OFFTON IPSWICH IP8 4SF Saturday 2nd November 2019. 10am It would be a crying shame if this didn't go ahead due to numbers. I had similar issues getting people to commit when arranging The Herts Bash - in the end I decided it was more aggro than it was worth. It's about 90m each way for me - I hate driving - but if anybody else from the Herts area is going I'm happy to chip in petrol money for the privilege of being a passenger.

I’ve no problem giving you a lift Sir, I always feel a bit daft travelling to one of these with a spare seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonunders Posted October 11, 2019 Author Share Posted October 11, 2019 Hi. I am very grateful to those of you who have shown interest but I feel that this has become a non starter. I have a 140 mile round trip and with only 9 interested I cannot justify in my mind carrying on. Sorry but I'm going to cancel this event 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Idea, but hopefully it was just bad timing for some people and shouldn't be regarded as a reason not to try again another time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassfan Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Nothing I can add to what the guys have said. Thanks for trying. fingers crosses we can get one in the diary in the new year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete.young Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Fair enough. Thanks for trying, as everyone has said. Maybe we should look at doing something in the Ipswich area - would that work better for people? Kind regards Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonunders Posted October 13, 2019 Author Share Posted October 13, 2019 I would be happy to try again. East Anglia is such a big area. Any suggestions as to where and when? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazm66 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I completely missed this one. If there is to be another then I’ll be there (date permitting). Ipswich seems to be a sensible place but not sure of venues there. I used to rehearse in the back room of the Kingfisher pub. It’s huge and if I remember correctly was dirt cheap to hire.

TheGreek Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I empathise with the OP. We had similar problems with the Herts Bash. Loads of work to make it happen with relatively few attendees. There are members here who live 15mins away that never attended - makes you wonder why you'd bother, hence I don't any more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazm66 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 So as I said in my earlier post, I missed this last time as it’s an area of the forum that I don’t visit a lot so if this thread ends up on page 2 I’d probably not see it. Maybe the specific local bashes could all be stickies. I know there would be a lot, but at least they’d be visible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
