Dogs around expensive instruments. Seems like a plan.

[bassace]

I'd like to try to get there to see some of the stuff, particularly Alex's speakers. If for any reason Jakesbass can't make it I'll definitely bring a double bass for anyone to have a try on.

Just as a matter of interest, how do you manage powering all those amps at the venue? If you fired up all of them you'd surely blow a few fuses?

[JackLondon]

My drummer has expressed some interest in coming around and he said that if he can bagsy a lift he would bring his drums and can jam out with people, he's one of the LOUD drummers so would be a good show of skills of Alex's Barefaced range for all the people that are still in doubt

Oh, is Cognito coming then? Lovely girl...

I might make it down, not sure yet.

Hi Folks

There's been a few people mentioning bringing drummers & kits along which is great.. But although it's a big venue, we will need to make sure that any plans to have drums/drummers on the day are carefully worked out, otherwise, i think it could get a bit out of hand.

So I'll draw up a list of people who've either offered to bring or have mentioned drummers so that we can work out how it could work beforehand.. And I'll PM everyone on the list directly - does that sound OK?

Cheers

Nik

Watch out the Gitards will be getting in on the act too!!


Put me down.........Status Series1, and possibly me Hartke 3500 although I'm guessing there will be plenty to plug in to.

Should be fine as long as we don't all want a cup of tea at the same time.

Alex

[Happy Jack]

Does the Compact also make tea, then?

I wish you'd told me that before I bought a Big One (a.k.a. [i][color="#8B0000"]Jack's Megathrust Disaster[/color][/i]).

Shame.. Maybe you could come along for a couple of hours first thing?

[JackLondon]

ped- will you bring your line 6 with you ? I would like to A/B it with my Boss if that's ok as I think it might have a better use for me than boss has

[ped]

Hi Jack,

I am afraid I no longer use a Line 6, I have the Roland Vbass instead now. I am sure someone will bring a pod though. Having said that, they are difficult units to 'audition' in that environment. You need a lot of time with them to get the settings nailed. Still fun though

Cheers

Still looking for a lift from bristol

I just want to do a really quick test of noise Basically my Boss is giving away a lot of 'sssssssss' noise when in use and I can't get rid of it so I want to see if the POD does the same

Cheers
Jack

[ped]

I don't recall the pod making much noise. Pretty quiet as I remember. See you at the bash!

P.s Nik I have added this thread to the 'site news' bit so now it comes up at the top of the forum list.

[Stylon Pilson]

I will be there too. Will bring £10, a Hartke LH500 and a Barefaced Compact. And probably a fretless Aria Sinsonido, as it is the bass in my collection that is least likely to make other bass players yawn.

S.P.
