Hi again, Herbie Flowers has asked if there's likely to be anyone there during his talk who can play keyboards for him - the ability to play some basic chords is what he's after I think? If so, please could you PM me, thanks. Nik

Both lists looking good Folks!

[quote name='alexclaber' timestamp='1473937799' post='3134285'] How about the original prototype Barefaced Big One? It's lurking in our business unit waiting for the day we have a Barefaced museum but I'd rather it was getting used! [/quote] Wow! Thats an amazing offer Alex - are you sure? A genuine item of UK bass guitar speaker design history..

Thanks for the Raffle Prizes Folks Any more unwanted bass paraphernalia out there that could find a new, loving home via our Raffle?

29 is a fair old stint at this game! My musical stint started in 1977 when I was 16; very exciting times indeed! I have played at Hammersmith Owen (as I still prefer to call it) , when on tour 22 years ago. It was a real buzz to play on the same stage as some of my musical heroes (Bowie, Roxy Music, Kate Bush etc, etc). Sound on stage was crap though! Mind you, we were only the support band..

^ ^ We're going to need a separate venue for all this lot!

Sorry to hear that Nick, but good that it means you'll be able to attend the Bash!

'Just two weeks to go now' type BUMP.. Any more takers out there for the 10th South East Bash, with a great line up of workshops and guests - all for just £10! And a gentle reminder that we could really do with some more Raffle Prizes to add to the list.. Thanks Nik

[quote name='TrevorR' timestamp='1473421353' post='3130061'] Nick, I should be able to provide some lucky-dip bundles of review/promo CDs for the raffle. Will have a look upstairs at what's kicking about. They won't be bass-focused but all of "3* out of 5 review" quality or more. [/quote] Thanks Trevor - much appreciated!!

Good luck with the surgery Nick and if you can be there, great! Despite 'all things bass' being super-important, health does have to take precedence... ..occasionally.

[quote name='TrevorR' timestamp='1473434805' post='3130241'] Gary, so sorry to hear that. Surely a pleasant day out amongst like minded folks (albeit sans heavy gear) would be a perfect spirit raiser, release endorphins and promote more rapid healing...? Worth a try with Mrs Mac... [/quote] +1

Sad news, but a sign of the times I suppose..

[quote name='Stingray5' timestamp='1472912700' post='3125310'] Nice one, Nik! A great looking line-up of guests, attendees and gear. Bass Bashes are always great fun but could this be the best SEBB yet? [/quote] Cheers Steve A good Bash is all down to the people who come along on the day IMO, and it looks like we've got a great list of Basschaters signed up already! But there's always room for more, so come on Folks - get your name on that there list!!
