South East Bass Bash No.6, Surrey, Saturday 29th September 2012

[silverfoxnik]

It won't be the same without Nige, Clarky, Johnny Lager and some of the other regulars from the last few years..... But it'll still be a great day hopefully!

[Billy Apple]

Shameless plug for a Matamp 212 I've got up for sale that will be at the bash..

[size=5][i][b]just a quick heads up on the route to venue..... A320 guildford road between st peter`s hospital and the knoll is closed for a few days because of sudsidence/burst water main(this only happened today)......... your sat nav may want to take this way, from a southern approach............................so no access to green lane from A320!!!!![/b][/i][/size]

Thanks for the heads up!

My satnav has always suggested the 3rd exit off junction 11 up the A317, then 3rd exit off the next roundabout onto the A318 (Chertsey Rd) - if you get that far your SatNav should have "recalculated" its little heart out if it wanted you to go via the A320....

[Billy Apple]

That's a thought, what is the address? Where is it buried in this thread?

3. A question about a [b]'For Sale[/b]' section: previously, we've had that in the 'Quiet Room/Foyer' area - is everyone cool with that arrangement again?

[/quote]

I was going to sell mine in the loud room. Mostly as there will be plenty of amps around to try it on!

On other matters, is there anyone who does'nt mind me sullying their collection of basses by letting me putting my Grabber and SUB with them? I am unable to bring amps and last time I brought my Pedullas no one tried them out because I had no amp for them to plug into!

Ah yeah forgot the Wagon, played darts there a few times, nice pub. Needless to say not the one I was thinking of.

[Si600]

I hope no one thinks that I'm saying that there [b]has[/b] to be a pub lunch I don't know anyone, so I'll be hiding at the back and keeping out of the way, except for 5im0n's compressor workshop where I may be a guinea pig I'm not bringing any amps or cabs cos all I have is a practice amp that won't interest anybody.

I should have a couple of spaces in my rack

[51m0n]

The compressor 'workshop' really ought to be renamed "51m0n's quick and dirty way to set up a compressor you scoundrels".....

We'll be attempting a world record of maybe a brief description of what it is you need to know and do and then an atttempt to set up two or three compressors, all in 15 minutes tops

After which if anyone can remember what was said they will be able to set a compressor up for themselves (one would hope)

This was me exactly last year. Hiding at the back and trying to pluck up the courage to go into the Jam room. Which I eventually did about half an hour before the end. Didn't have a proper amp then and still don't.
However - everyone was really nice and welcoming so I am coming back for more this year!
I'll look out for you skulking somewhere and say hello

I'll be easy to spot BTW - I'll be the speccy blonde woman with a red shiny nose!! Still trying to shake off this bloomin' cold !

[/quote]

If nobody else has any more important questions, I'll sit next to you and you'll talk me through [b]everything[/b] effects-related, starting from the very beginning (as in - "this is a pedal" ), 'cos I don't use any, and I don't play live, but I'm keen to learn about them for the future. (Same about amplification, but that's another story.)

Looking forward to seeing you all!

[silverfoxnik]

Si, do you want me to bring along my DBX MC6 tomorrow for your talk?

[pete.young]

Sorry but I won't be able to make this one - got a gig on Saturday and various other stuff to do. I hope you all have a great day.

[silverfoxnik]

Sorry to hear that Pete!

I have also just heard that Happy Jack can't be with us either, so no drummer for the Jam Room so, we're going to need drum machines or similar maybe to keep a groove going in there...

I've definitely got some questions for the FX workshop!

[Silvia Bluejay]

Nik, as far as I know, Paul [b]will[/b] be there (and so will I, and Simon). We'll all be missing Jack but hopefully a day's rest will allow him to feel better.

Very much appreciated! Will try and bring a stand along as well not to take up your space!

[Booooooom]

I've been hoping to attend as I thoroughly enjoyed last years but haven't been able to shake off other commitments.
Should any of the workshops get videod and posted on YouTube, please post links in this thread!
Have a great day.

[Silvia Bluejay]

I'll be there with The Infamous Camera and I can take videos too, as long as they're max 10 mins each (they're more manageable that way).
