yorks5stringer Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 [b]Loading In Details for Yorkshire Bass Bash[/b] There is a lift, it’s just on the left as you come in to the entrance. Also, there is a door to the right of the lift leading to the basement where you will find some steel cages that you can wheel out to put your equipment in and then in to the lift and then in to the concert room.

Dr.Dave Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I'm a 99.9% for this tomorrow - looking forward to meeting y'all. So - if you're short of any Fendery bits have a quick look at my ad in the 'for sale' section. Obviously I can then bring them with me and sell them to you there.

Also hope someone has some Mark Bass equipment as I want to feel just how must lighter than my current gear it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Born 2B Mild Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Have a great time folks. I would be there, but I'm doing a Sunday afternoon slot at Harrogate's Blues Bar. I hope another Yorkshire Bass Bash happens, so I can make it. Maybe you can add comments on your experiences, on BC, so us absentees can see what we missed?

noisedude Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Hello all, I had a good laugh this afternoon and watched some excellent playing on instruments ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous (and no, I won't be drawn further on that)! Just want to know who I met because I didn't really get many people's names ... I'm Nik, rotund with glasses and a tango'd orange Ibanez Doug Wimbish. The only names I caught were Chris Jobiebass and Dr Dave but I spoke to other people!! If you saw me there, help me make some connections between real people and online people!! And thanks again to Keith for organising, it was well put together so that it didn't feel totally weird turning up by myself! Nik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobiebass Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 (edited) I had a good laugh, met some nice people and heard some great bass, shame im not too hot myself lol. Yeah im with NoiseDude with the names thing, Dr Dave and NoiseDude were the only names what stuck. Thanks for york5stringer for putting it all on, really enjoyed myself, Im thinking It could have been a little longer though, I didnt really get chance to play everything lol, didnt help I had a blow out on the motorway doing 80mph on the way there, did slow me down a little. oooo, I won some drum sticks too, They'll get used....................... on Rock Band for the xbox whos were those Wal's anyways? and I never got chance to play thats fretless/fretted double neck thing which I was a little guttered about. Edit, the guy with the 9 string, HILARIOUS. (meaning your funny, not mocking your ability/aircraft carrier) Talking about ability, It makes me realise I suck at bass 2nd edit, NoiseDude, your Ibanez is LOVELY to slap, real crisp sound, LUSH Edited June 29, 2008 by Jobiebass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been great to meet everyone.Where else could you go try Celinders,Wals,Shukers et al through Aguilars, PJB's and the rest of a Sunday aft. Massive thanks to Keith for that opportunity , hopefully if it happens again more of you out there wil take or make the chance to join in. Special thanks from me to Joe (and Duncan the cat) for collecting me in Shipley, putting the kettle on and then ferrying me to the bash. And to Russ for bringing me home , where we had a fiddle with the rest of my basses and put the world to rights for an hour or two. And I won a botle of Vodka in the raffle. Bye bye , everyone , bye bye !!!!! Edited June 29, 2008 by Dr.Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonybassplayer Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Just like to say a big thank you for organising today's gathering and looking forward to the next. I was only able to attend for an hour and a half or so but really enjoyed chatting with the people I met and I had the opportunity to hear the sound and feel the weight of Mark Bass cabs and it convinced me of my next purchase. Only down side was later in the day I got a call from our sax player to tell me our drummer is unable to play for two months due to a problem with his ears so it looks like we are going to be chasing round for deps for the next few gigs !! For identification purposes I was the guy that came late dressed in black jeans and black and white shirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Good to see everyone today - and Dr.Dave, no problem.
