All those dates work for me atm. I've been at this event before, @Richard R - it's absolutely splendid!

Seriously thinking about this event. You're about four hours down the road from me, but it's all motorway, (*strokes chin thoughtfully*)

Hame! Thanks to Rob for organising another excellent day with good weather, great gear, good company, and nice grub. 😀

Loaded up for tomorrow ...

It's just under two hours drive for me, so I'm planning to be there around 10:30/11:00. I'm really looking forward to seeing some stunning instruments and renewing old friendships.

Speaking of stands - and who isn't these days? - I have this 3-slot Tiger stand going spare to anyone who's interested - no money will change hands. I'll bring it along on Saturday. EDIT: This stand has found a new forever home. It's going to live on a farm far away.

Eats anything .. fond of children.

You will not be disappointed, sir.

Good morning, I'm planning to bring my ACG J-Type 4-string (0096), ACG Finn Fretless 4-string (0122), ACG Harlot 6-string (0240), ESP Ltd B-208FM 8-string, Michael Kelly Firefly 4-string acoustic, Chapman Grand Stick 10-string (deep matched reciprocal tuning), and an Ashbory Mk2 4-string. I'll either bring the Phil Jones Bass BG-110 Bass Cub Combo ... or I might go wild and load up my Gallien Krueger stuff (2 x MB500s along with a 115MBX and 210MBX cabinets) and my pedal board. 😱 Oh, and a folding sack trolley!

Splendid and tremendous news! It's in my Outlook calendar and it'll be on the new fridge calendar on 1st January. Have a great New Year/Hogmanay when it gets here.

That's the same weekend as RushFest in Glasgow, so please put me down as a 'maybe' at the moment.

Good afternoon from south west Scotland! Top guitar person Greg Howe is doing a couple of UK dates in November (London and Manchester) and he will have absolute bass monster Mohini Dey with him ... drummer tba. Are any fellow BassChat members thinking about going along? https://bandonthewall.org/events/greg-howe-lost-and-found-european-tour-2024/?fbclid=IwY2xjawFyEWNleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHccYNHdzWlC_-C1OlrBuc29NLXsxIQjC7uem5aVpMd_JIP9YfaZ4fD_q3A_aem_EokHCdbalJyBkINqD2DGQw

"One of us! One of us!"

Given all the owls that are utilised for letter and parcel delivery in the Harry Potter books, surely there will be at least one Dead Mice R Us shop in Diagon Alley?

My photies from yesterday - an eminently civilised day in fine company.

That's me hame! Thanks for organising today, Rob - it was absolutely splendid. We couldn't have asked for better company, a better setting or better weather. Onwards and upwards. 😉 I'll post my pics once I get them off the camera.

Wheels up!

Are we able to drive into Old Mason's Yard behind the village hall - is that where the main entrance is?

They'll get bagged and cased up in the morning. #organised

Rachel Allen recipe flapjack made here.

Getting serious now ...

I'm planning to be there around 10:00am, (SatNav already programmed), and a well-fired bacon butty would be greatly appreciated. I'm bringing home-made flapjack, (a Rachel Allen recipe).

This is very thoughtful of you, Rob. No dietary issues from me ... as my old dad used to say, "Eats anything, fond of children."!

I have a spare Comfort Strapp (Extra Long, 42"-54", adjusts both ends) lying about here. The holes have been opened out on order to accommodate Dunlop Strap Lock pins. It's free to a good home - I'll bring it with me on the 18th. 🙂
