bnt Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 For the location, are you talking about Doveridge (DE6 5JQ) again? It's a bit out of the way if you'd go by train, I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both should be somewhat reasonably priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you get to Derby with your kit, for example? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnt Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 At this point, just pondering the possibility of getting Ryanair in to East Midlands and maybe staying in Derby or Nottingham for a few days. A Ryanair seat for a gig bag can be literally cheaper than the baggage charges on other airlines, assuming it's off-season. I would bring my modded HB MP-4 Enhanced (ClonedBerg) and a cable, that would be about it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I can't squeeze you in, I am sure someone else can. Of course we'll need details nearer the time. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not belittling the guitar thing as many of us play that also, more that we should preserve our niche. Otherwise we risk getting over-ridden by well meaning attendees who probably have a lot more events oriented to them specifically than we as bass players have anyway. Just my thought.

Geek99 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) I’ve mostly been unable to attend due to life commitments, childcare, stuff HOWEVER my partner and two daughters have just got a horse and so disappear off to the stables every afternoon to do things horse-related. Normally I’d do DIY, shopping, prepare dinner and so I’ll ask if she has a problem with a day pass. I’m in credit right now as I’ve built them a field hay-box today and also set up a big electric fence from scratch mark me as a possible please Edited March 13, 2021 by Geek99 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
