jakenewmanbass Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 I'm seriously hoping I can make this one, I've had gigs every other time. I know Stevie very well and think he and the guys have done a great job in pulling this together into a seriously respected event. I would love to chew the fat with Nathan East. Quote

EBS_freak Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) Nathan East. Nuff said. Worth the entry alone. PS can we have a banner at the top of the page with a dodgy wound string? Edited June 25, 2009 by EBS_freak Quote
Rayman Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Brilliant, missed last years, but hopefully not this year. Hope you're well Gary, it's been a while, I don't think I've seen you since Bass Day '07, the first one at RNCM, or maybe the Jem gig at the academy, can't remember. Russ. Quote
Gary Posted June 25, 2009 Author Posted June 25, 2009 Hi Russ Fine thanks mate, had a my first little one born lat last year so he is keeping us busy at the moment. Should be good again this year. Yeah it must have been the first RNCM I last saw you. Another few artists to confirm which if they come off should make it an amazing day. Gary Quote
Pete Academy Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Nathan East?!! Adam Nitti?!! I'm there!!! Quote
steve-soar Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Anybody in the Liverpool, Cheshire area going? I'm not taking "er indoors" cause I want to mess around and not feel the projected scorn and the eyes raised to heaven. Just like that. Quote

I'll bet you haven't got that nice music room in the cellar all to yourself anymore !! Looking forward to BD '09, I'll be there for Adam Nitti alone, can't wait. Quote
Thunderthumbs Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 I'll be there again this year. Nathan East......very nice. Looking like another great show already.

My wife owns a "serviced apartments" business in the centre of Manchester. Get an apartment for the same price or less as a standard city centre hotel room. I'm sure I can get some "mates rates" sorted out. Cheers, Pete. Quote
Mikey D Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 I'm definitely going to get along this year, all other years I realise too late. In the calendar it goes. Quote

I'm a little tempted but it'll cost me a few bob to get there. Are there some good discounts to be had on strings'n'things there? Quote

See you there Gary Edited September 9, 2009 by Gary Quote
lozbass Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 (edited) 'Pity it's in Manchester - a grim, grey and hostile dump. I speak from experience - I live in it. Edit: oh yeah, and if there's any old hippies knocking about on these pages, Gong and Steve Hillage are on at the Academy 2 on Saturday night. Trippy gig then off for a curry in Rusholme (Manchester's saving grace). Edited September 9, 2009 by lozbass Quote
Veils Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 If anyone wants to come to this and needs a place to crash, I live about 15-20 mins walk away and will be happy to put people up if they fancy coming but not paying to stay over. Quote
Gary Posted September 15, 2009 Author Posted September 15, 2009 Randy Hope-Taylor has just confirmed and more to come. Quote
