Great pictures Trevor 😊 Can't believe how much cool gear there was there yesterday, most of which I missed as I was too busy running around! Having said that, Cetera's Fernandes 'Spectorbird' was awesome and the Chowny Scott Whitley bass was a real surprise! Hmmm; food for thought... Had a thoroughly enjoyable day though and thanks to Sarah (Mrs Hamster) for providing the necessary caffeine and calories to keep me - and all of us - going throughout the day.. And Colin (Hamster) for organising everything to do with the venue so well. 😊 Still on the organising front, I wanted to also thank Chris (ped) for help with arrangements with Steve, Gary (cetera) for arranging things with Lee & Davey, Silvia (bluejay) for general audio-visual & social media excellence, and Jack (Happy Jack) and Dave (obbm) for working with me Colin and Silvia on the planning. Got to say a massive thanks to our guests; Lee Voss, Davey Rimmer, Steve Lawson - brilliant talks/demos in the theatre! Stephen Chown of Chownybass Bass, luthier, Ian Robinson and obbm for their presence in the Foyer, and not forgetting Paul of the Junkyard Dogs for manning the Jam Room (which I think was a but quieter this year for some reason?). Just absolutely brilliant contributions from everyone from start to finish! And thanks to everyone who came, donated something to the Raffle, and generally got involved on the day - that's what it's all about! Got to say that everyone made my son Jimmy very welcome - which was much appreciated by the way - and he says he understands my 'bass geek thing' a little bit more as a result of being there yesterday. Now ain't that a good thing! 😁

That For Sale list is unbelievable! Were going to need more space in the foyer... 😁 See you tomorrow!

[quote name='NancyJohnson' timestamp='1506026645' post='3376045'] Aah, it was clever subterfuge on my part. Well, while you obviously thought I was nipping out to check my car was locked, I did in fact travel a few hours into the future and found out what the winning number was going to be. I took my time machine back to 1976, had a quick chat with Herbie while he was doing the [i]War Of The Worlds[/i] album and told him to pull out ticket #64 at the 2016 Bash Raffle. While I was there, I hung around for a couple of months, saw the Sex Pistols at The Screen On The Green (brilliant, by the way) and then made it back to the Bash before anyone there knew I'd been away. I'm surprised nobody realised I was actually wearing different trousers from those I arrived in. I also bought back 23 1968 Fender Jazz basses that have now helped me in my dream of being mortgage-free. It's all in the detail. Nik. [/quote] Impressive! 😊

[quote name='NancyJohnson' timestamp='1506017290' post='3375963'] I'll be there but my gear won't be. In body only and hoping to clean up on the raffle again. Titter. [/quote] It was a fix! 😁

[quote name='prowla' timestamp='1505600681' post='3373140'] Hi - no binding at all. The previous-but-one owner removed it! I'm thinking it might be too big a job for one day, though... [/quote] Spoke to Ian he agrees, it's too big a job for the day. Sorry..

[quote name='cetera' timestamp='1505722135' post='3373699'] Are we having the obligatory 'name' stickers with Basschat name & real name? [/quote] Indeed we are ! 😀

😁

Thought so.. Thanks 😊
