The question really is who is somewhere betwen Carmarthen and Bristol wo would be intersted in something happening in the middle? The Midlands BB, if it happens, is likely to be near Redditch so those in the marches have that. One thought is that an event in Cardiff could possibly happen in a club with a stage allowing us to have some informal jamming and maybe even a bar and a gig afterwards for those who want it. The Earl Haig Club in Cardiff (Whitchurch) could be perfect for that 2 Quote

Jabba_the_gut Posted May 29, 2022 Posted May 29, 2022 I'd be interested in this dependent on location. 2 Quote
Stub Mandrel Posted May 29, 2022 Author Posted May 29, 2022 Seem to be getting some traction. I will see if it might work for the Earl Haig. Otherwise I have a venue in Penarth that would be willing, we could use their big upstairs room on a day when there's a really good band downstairs. 6 Quote

Phill Posted June 7, 2022 Posted June 7, 2022 Just jumping in, The Earl Haig would be great! Be great to meet & see others again Quote
Pea Turgh Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 I’m definitely up for it! Usually drive down to the SW bash in Taunton, but we’ll up for a closer one, too. I’m in Swansea, but Cardiff makes most sense for a Southern meet. Quote
Stub Mandrel Posted June 18, 2022 Author Posted June 18, 2022 OK, I had a brief chat with Steve, he'd support the idea of a Bass Bash at the Earl Haig, timed for a day when there's a band in the front bar in the evening for those who want to stay on. The big room has a stage, and plenty of room. I'll need a date and a suggestion of numbers. I was thinking September time, so we can get all the summer holidays out of the way? 1 Quote

Mottlefeeder Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 I'd be interested in a shoot-out between micro cabs. I have my even Briefer Case twin 5s and others have Fane or Faital based 6s, or PJB 4s. Any one else interested? David 3 Quote

Stub Mandrel Posted June 19, 2022 Author Posted June 19, 2022 Is that a volunteer for an organising committee? I have a PJB c4, could bring it for a face off. 1 Quote
