I'll ask around although some idea of budget would be ideal.[/quote] Well, the budget would be simple to work out really. Much like the other Bass Bashes that have run - It has been a case of charging say a tenner on the door and the 'hire' gets taken out of the kitty and the rest of the money goes to a charity of choice, which I think is a great idea. Then it's just down to getting enough people to come to make it a worthwhile do - Which as far as I can tell, has never been a problem!!! Cambridge to me seems like a good place to do the bash - I really don't mind the hour trip down the road.. especially in comparison to the rather gruelling trip to Bass Day over in Manchester! 3.5hrs more like!

essexbasscat Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Phoned the Gonville Hotel in central Cambridge this morning. Not suitable for us to use, due to concerns re potential noise levels. The search goes on.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I'm thinking of checking outskirts instead as a. It will probably be cheaper B. Be easier to park I'll try to make some calls 2moro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIM Basses Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 (edited) [url="http://www.miltonvillage.org.uk/opus143.html"]http://www.miltonvillage.org.uk/opus143.html[/url] [url="http://www.barhillvillagehall.btik.com/"]http://www.barhillvillagehall.btik.com/[/url] Found these two, could be ok. I was also thinking maybe having a south east bassbash next year in my local village hall. Its even got a stage and Piano! and the pub is across the road. We used it for band practice great sounding hall, got kitchen for all food and drinks. Would be cheap to hire for the day, will find out soon. By the way its in husborne Crawley, Beds.

charic Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 That bar hill village hall looks very promising! £125 + VAT (so about £150) for 9am-5pm so 15 people at £10 a ticket could cover it... rest could go charity of choice. Scratch all that, that weekday prices. Weekend seems to only cover 6pm-1am which is £200 plus £200 damages deposit (refunded later) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Right! I just widened my search a little (St Ives about 30mins down the road from Cambridge). Slepe Hall seems pretty damn good imo. Would people be willing to travel this far? Were talking £250 for the Hall all day, optional food (finger snacks but we can organise for more) aswell as a bar in the hall! Can anyone interested in getting involved in the organisation get in touch with me via pm so we dont crowd this thread? 25 people at £10 each covers this and rest could go to charity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
