[quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1349094575' post='1821631'] It's not my fault if you were having such fun! Although Nick doesn't seem to have joined the fun in this pic! [/quote] [quote name='seashell' timestamp='1349094837' post='1821638'] he was probably wincing at my drumming! [/quote] That's my horrible 'bassface' I'm afraid - comes of being a miserable old barsteward! And it was my playing I was wincing at tbh... You were really good!

[quote name='eude' timestamp='1349084425' post='1821404'] Thanks mate, sure it'll all be fine after the first 6-12 months... Eude [/quote] The old saying is you that '...you never regain all the sleep you lose during the first 6-12 months of your babies life!' Scary but true!

Cheers Eude.. And 'Congratulations' on the news of the baby - hope all goes well with it!

Sorry not to have seen you mate; looking forward to next year! Thanks for the labels by the way

Brilliant !

Hi Folks Wow! What a great day.... despite me the traffic chaos around the M25 that caused so many of us to get there very late!! Before anything, I have to thank Hamster & Mrs Hamster (Colin & Sarah) for organising everything so brilliantly despite not having me and Mrs Silverfoxnik (Loraine) there to help set up as intended! Excellent refreshments by the way.. Thanks also to Sibob for an amazing 'foot-tappingly brilliant FX workshop (definitely agree about his bass & rig sounding awesome with and without the FX); 51m0n for yet another Einsteinian like Compressor workshop, Paul for coming along with drums, good humour and good grooves to get the Jam Room moving and also to Urb for getting there in the end after so much hassle on the roads! Can't forget either some other notable contributions on the day; Ped turning up with some Basschat goodies and bits for the Raffle, obbm for manning the For sale area in the Foyer, everyone who donated prizes to the Raffle and Mrs Silverfoxnik for talking loads of photos (which we'll sort through and post up later tonight).. On a personal note, thanks to Chimike for bringing in the two Trace Elliot valve heads - they were amazing! It was brilliant to meet some new Basschatters and to see lots of familiar faces and there were some lovely basses and exciting bits of gear on display! Very quickly; Tom Kent's Fodera stood out, Chris's USA Lakland was lovely and his Thunderfunk 750 amp was very, very nice too.. WalMan's Overwater sounded great in the Jam Room too! Amazingly that Overwater and Chris's Lakland are for sale but no takers, when they're very nice basses indeed. Also couldn't talk about basses without a mention for Sibob's P bass which looks & sounds the business.. Mr Claber's new Barefaced prototype is pretty impressive too, but his 3 way cab (which I'd not seen or heard before) sounded great to my ears! Overall, it's such a chilled-out and nice vibe on the day that it makes it a real highlight of the year for me! Lastly, have to mention those that couldn't be with us yesterday for a variety of reasons: Happy Jack, silddx, Clarky, Bassace, Stingray 5, Merton, johnnylager and Jakenewmanbass.. You were very definitely missed - despite it being a great day - but hopefully, we'll see you next year.. Nik

Sorry to hear that Steve! I'm the same - cold and sore throat since Monday/Tuesday but it's almost gone now thankfully.. Anyway, hope to see you both later on.

[quote name='billyapple' timestamp='1348865544' post='1819413'] Hope you're feeling better soon, Jack [/quote] +1 Good to hear that Paul, MacDaddy and seashell will be there though Si; OK..will bring the MC6 with me..

Sorry to hear that Pete! I have also just heard that Happy Jack can't be with us either, so no drummer for the Jam Room so, we're going to need drum machines or similar maybe to keep a groove going in there... I've definitely got some questions for the FX workshop!

Si, do you want me to bring along my DBX MC6 tomorrow for your talk?

Just a quick reminder not to forget your Raffle donations folks! ... ..say that and I'll probably forget mine now.

Not long now folks; looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!

Date: Saturday 29 September 2012 Time: 10am - 5pm Venue: Jubilee High School, Surrey, School Lane, Addlestone, Surrey KT15 1TE Venue link: Jubilee High School Website: [url="http://www.jubileehigh.surrey.sch.uk/"]http://www.jubileehigh.surrey.sch.uk/[/url] MAP LINK: [url="http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=504208&y=164434&z=0&sv=KT15+1TE&st=2&pc=KT15+1TE&mapp=map.srf&searchp=ids.srf"]http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=504208&y=164434&z=0&sv=KT15+1TE&st=2&pc=KT15+1TE&mapp=map.srf&searchp=ids.srf[/url]

It won't be the same without Nige, Clarky, Johnny Lager and some of the other regulars from the last few years..... But it'll still be a great day hopefully!

Hi Folks, A quick update: 1. Confirmed times for [b]W[/b][b]orkshops[/b] are: 12.00: FX's workshop - Sibob 13.00: Recording/Studio related stuff and Compressors - 51m0n 14.00: Ableton; composing, jamming and performing - Urb For those of us interested in the [b]'A/B ing amps, cabs & basses[/b] etc', I suggest we discuss it when the relevant interested folks have arrived.. Might be good to have Mr Claber in on that?? And also, we might need to hold it in the large hall as opposed to the Theatre, which is where the Workshops will most probably be taking place... 2.[b] Raffle[/b] Colin - how does 15.30-16.00 sound to you for the Raffle?? 3. A question about a [b]'For Sale[/b]' section: previously, we've had that in the 'Quiet Room/Foyer' area - is everyone cool with that arrangement again? So...in [b]summary[/b] we should have the following taking place...: Quiet Room (with For Sale section) Theatre (with 3 x Workshops taking place) Large Hall for other stuff, such as A/B-ing amps etc, etc Jam Room (with the amazing Paul on drums) Refreshments courtesy of Mr & Mrs Hamster in the Foyer and a Raffle Look forward to seeing you all there on the day! Nik

Gold hardware for a Fender jazz, for that very 'bling' look! (bridge cover and pick up cover)

Looks like the compression talk you did a couple of years ago Si, should make a much needed re-appearance this year...??

Good idea; OK - what comparisons are people interested in looking at the gear that's going to be there?

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1347967609' post='1807233'] Apparently we can have up to 13 amps before the fuses blow ... [/quote] Si; that's a good point - it'll need some thought to get the best out of it I think..??
