Hi All

Just thought I'd update you on Bass Day UK 2008

Unfortunately Adam Nitti can't make it this year.

On the plus side TM Stevens has just been confirmed and Janek Gwizdala.

Check out the www.bassday.co.uk for more info.

Check out the retail page to see what goodies you could buy from.

Check out the bass collective to what UK bass players you will see on the boom stage (ground floor) during the day.

Thanks

Gary

Hi Si

It is 9th November 2008

Hi All

Bass Day UK 2008 is shaping up to be a great event this year, a few more big names to confim

Hi All

Great vid of hadrien, We will be getting together the video footage of the performances we got soon so keep an eye out on the site.

We will start planning for Bass Day UK 2008 in the next month or so and hopefully have it at the RNCM again as the venue was great.

Thanks to everyone who came both traders and public and the support we got from everyone, we hope to grow this event more and more each year. The event is getting more exposure now and getting a lot of interest from both traders and artists.

Was that the Tony levin model.

made me chuckle when you came down and said you can have the strings back if you want

Hey All

Thanks for the feedback, we will be meeting up this week to discuss feedback and start planning Bass Day UK 2008.

Thanks for all you support and we hope to see you next year.

Gary

Hi All

Car parking is very easy.

Driving down Oxford Road you will come to a set of lights (crossroads) having just passed the Aquatics Centre on your Left and the Royal Northen on your right.
Turn right and about 200 metres down the road (Royal Northern Entrace just before on the right) you will see a left hand turn which takes you to an NCP carpark.

Coming into Manchester on Oxford road you will come to the set of lights with an enclosed walkway above you. Turn left here.

Some additional details here [url="http://www.rncm.ac.uk/content/view/41/93/"]http://www.rncm.ac.uk/content/view/41/93/[/url]

Hey Alun

Yes the schedule changed slightly. There will be a plasma screen displaying the schedule on the day too.

jwbassman There is an ncp cark park opposite the Royal Northern.

shh it's a secret

Hi All

Only a couple of weeks to go now, remember to roder your ticket if you havn't done so already.

See you there

[quote name='6stringbassist' post='72480' date='Oct 10 2007, 11:06 PM']Shame, that just about rules out pretty much everyone that I wanted to see, no Michael Manring, Steve Lawson, Janek (the star performer at last years bassday), Gary Willis, Jeff Schmidt...oh well.[/quote]

Maybe next year you never know. Still this years event should be a cracker. The only place in the UK your gonna see some great Bass Players, trade aimed soley at the bassist and bass lectures all in one day.

Hey Matt

Looks like there is going to be plenty of Bass Chatters there.

Also another bass for you to win has been kindly donated by Dawsons music.

Hi All

The schedule has now been updated.

We have also added some more Bass Day UK 2007 prize draws on the news section

First act won't be on untill about 14:00

If you haven't listened to any of the clips on the profile section for this year check them out.

Reggie's intro is fantastic. If he puts that much effot into a voice over I can't wait to see his performance.

[quote name='paul, the' post='56859' date='Sep 7 2007, 10:33 AM']I'd totally take an Italia over an MM copy. A very revealing contrast. Separate draws presumably?[/quote]

yep seperate draws

Mark

Italia have a stand at Bass Day UK this year, so I'm sure there will be plenty to try out there.

And you can win one too, check out the news page on the Bass Day UK site www.bassday.co.uk

Back to topic.

I have the Marcus MIller 5 string jazz which I have had for a few years now and love it. Plays beautifully.
