[quote name='warwickhunt' post='346002' date='Dec 4 2008, 11:55 PM']Yes but what about the bass... Boom Boom! [/quote] I'll have one of yer Streamers!!

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='345798' date='Dec 4 2008, 06:44 PM']Sorry to dredge up an old thread (though I'm sure one or two folks won't mind )! Did anyone buy an amber/amberburst finish Spector in these various sales that is now wanting to move it on? I can do cash or a trade if you still need a bass. PM me any thoughts. Ta [/quote] Can I dangle mine over your head until you get one?

[quote name='BigBeefChief' post='345761' date='Dec 4 2008, 06:01 PM']I think I just heard marcus bell having a seizure.[/quote] Ah he'll just keep playing Mr. Pink until he's happy again.

Just having a noodle over Ordinary People by John Legend, not the best qaulity at alll I know, and a few fluffs but ah well:

Well it seems it's more likely going to be in Bristol, and unfortunately I'm not too familiar with the place to organise something. So really it's down to one of the Bristolians if this is going to happen.

[quote name='Lorne' post='344711' date='Dec 3 2008, 08:32 PM']So,now it's moved from Somerset to Bristol? It was 86 miles from Plymouth,now it's 127,I doubt I'll be coming now,and anyway,I wouldn't be welcome - I ONLY have B.C.Rich basses,11 of 'em [/quote] See why I'm now confused.

[quote name='Nate' post='344704' date='Dec 3 2008, 08:28 PM']Can you book Hadrien Feraud to play??[/quote] I highly doubt it.

As said, if I do finally get a concrete amount of names then I'll look into the venues much more in depth and if anything, I may do waht Nik did for the Se bash and go for the enarest Holiday Inn. which is in Taunton, so thats about an hour from Bristol. I'm getting a little lost now because we have to take into account people coming from past Devon and Dorset (maybe even Cornwall), Bristol may be a bit far out for them whereas Taunton/Bridgwater is a better middle point. But hey if someone wants to organise one in Bristol I'll be there nonetheless.

[quote name='phil_the_bassist' post='344661' date='Dec 3 2008, 07:58 PM']I defo don't think it should matter what gear everyone's got, as long as everyone comes along ready to chat sh!t and have a laugh, it'll be a helluva good day out! Once again, I'll be able to bring my penal extension of a Hartke stack, my 'Ray5, pedal board etc. if anyone wants a play?[/quote] Well it is one of the main draws of a Bass Bash but still having a good chat is also a healthy percentage of the whole thing as well. Of course someone will. I'm still trying to gauge how many people will 100% be able to make it before I even think about ringing up venues. Would 30 people be a healthy number? Also, I think I've pretty much thought about every thing I need to take in to consideration for this kind of box social: Parking Smoking Facilities Food Drink Plugs Decent Space Usage time Location Toilets Anything I've missed out?

[quote name='BassManKev' post='344652' date='Dec 3 2008, 07:47 PM']does anyone know how big the DBM practice room is on gloucester road, bristol?[/quote] Kev, you know all, you tell us.

[quote name='Absolute-beginner' post='344646' date='Dec 3 2008, 07:42 PM']So when is this going to happen? 2009 at this point in time I would have thought.[/quote] Indeed, also on depending on the shcedule of which ever venue we end up choosing, but I'd say hopefully between Jan - Feb.

[quote name='phil_the_bassist' post='344639' date='Dec 3 2008, 07:38 PM']OOH! I'd be up for a jaunt to wot where them funny talkers be fram loike! COunt me in, gig/practices/work notwithstanding! ahh...the joys of living in the middle of the middle of the south of england! [/quote] I'll be the poshest one there mind you, I'll charge a £5 fine for any Someret stereotypes which are thrown about .

[quote name='Absolute-beginner' post='344633' date='Dec 3 2008, 07:33 PM']Eh?[/quote] B.C Rich's are mad, spikey, bizarre, intruiging basses, and he had a short holiday romance with qute alot of them.

[quote name='Absolute-beginner' post='344630' date='Dec 3 2008, 07:30 PM']Oh OK, thats ok then! [/quote] Nah he use to be mad about B.C. Rich's you see.

[quote name='Absolute-beginner' post='344626' date='Dec 3 2008, 07:27 PM']List? I thought you had done that already, although it transpires that you left out Shockwave. (how could you) ?[/quote] That was just a draft. How could I? Simple. He's not crazy anymore.

Should we consider starting to make a list anytime soon or are we still trying to think who qualifies as a Wurzel?

Are we that inbred we don't know anything about our part of England?

[quote name='P-T-P' post='344340' date='Dec 3 2008, 04:51 PM']Can I suggest that if the venue is more Bristol way it opens the door to the Welsh - or maybe we need a bash of our own? Or maybe there could be a Wales and the West bash covering the South Wales, Herefordshire, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Avon area which then would allow for the South West bash to be moved further South and/or West to make it more appealing to those in Cornwall/Devon. Though BassChat being what it is, I'm sure the welcome would be extended beyond boundaries.[/quote] There's no definites or anything yet, so I can't really say yay or nay.

[quote name='BassBod' post='343839' date='Dec 3 2008, 09:44 AM']I'll be there, even though I normally drive straight past Bridgewater, and do everything possible to avoid Taunton....[/quote] Taunton is a tad bit nicer than this sh*t hole. [quote name='Rich' post='344256' date='Dec 3 2008, 03:49 PM']You aren't the only one Mind you, at least Bridgy doesn't smell [i]quite[/i] so bad now the cellophane factory's gone. But it's still the perfect place to go if you fancy getting your teeth kicked in on a Saturday night. [/quote] Or just about any night of the week, but hang on a sec, if your constantly going past Bridgwater why haven't you ever considered stopping by and try and sedcue into that omnious sect that is Shuker?

[quote name='BeLow' post='343541' date='Dec 2 2008, 09:31 PM']In the middle of what? Bandit country? I suppose if you ignore Cornwall you might be close to being right. Lorne's right[/quote] Alright, either way we've still got the sodding accent.

[quote name='Lorne' post='343502' date='Dec 2 2008, 08:59 PM']Wow,is Bridgwater even in the South West???? It's certainly on the border,it would depend on when really[/quote] In fact it's nearly in the middle, Bristol and Bath are on the border I think, I could be wrong. Just had a helpful PM from SilverfoxNik and one thing he said is about how big the actual SW area is, should there be a limit or should it ecompass from Brissle all the way to the home of Doc Martin?

[quote name='Absolute-beginner' post='343457' date='Dec 2 2008, 08:19 PM']Umm no idea. What do we need? just a place with a bar i guess. Matt[/quote] A place big enough for our collective ego's and expensive gear, plug sockets aplenty, toilets and smoking facilities (Filthy habbit), food maybe, I'm just trying to take in to account everything the other guys did when they were setting up the SE Bass Bash. Parking as well.

[quote name='BassManKev' post='343452' date='Dec 2 2008, 08:15 PM']btw, dont wanna start a mass debate (say that as one word ), but i nearly spat my guinness out reading your under avatar bit [/quote] It's true as well.

I could even take a wild guess at who could possibly be there: Me obviously. Absolute Beginner Master Kev BottomFeed Rich Old Git Chipps ChardBass Bill Banwell Will Tottle Just a wild guess, some aren't on here but would no doubt be up for coming, what would be a sensible number before committing to anything?

[quote name='Absolute-beginner' post='343433' date='Dec 2 2008, 08:09 PM']bah! It didnt work, how do i do it?[/quote] Bring up the advanced edit option and click on the manage poll option and have a fiddle with that. If still no joy would you want me to start another thread with one?
