OK; a very late and quick update re: next Saturday's Bass... Arrangements for the various spaces are as follows:

[b]Foyer area:[/b] Sign-in desk, refreshments (courtesy of Hamster & Mrs Hamster :) ) and a 'Buy/Sell' area. The Raffle will also take place here.

[b]Theatre:[/b] Space for Talks & demos (more about that in a minute) and for low volume level gear/rigs

[b]Main Hall:[/b] This is the place to set up your gear/rig if you want to make a lot of noise!! (last year it got pretty loud in here, so be warned...)

[b]Jam Room:[/b] As per normal - the place to have a Jam with [b]Paul[/b] on drums (hopefully) and other creative Basschatters..


[b]Raffle: [/b]Has anyone got something they'd like to donate to the Raffle? If so, please let us know - thanks.

[u][b]Talks/Demos:[/b][/u]
Sincere apologies to one and all but for various reasons, we've not organised much in the way of talks/workshops this year, which is a bit of a shame after last year's Bash.
However, we do have one talk happening that is being given by Happy Jack (time to be confirmed).

[b]Happy Jack's Talk:[/b]
Jack has finally got the better of his chronic bad back through Pilates, and wants to share his experience with anyone who’s having similar trouble due to regular bass playing. Jack did this talk at the West Sussex mini-Bash in August and it was really good, so it's well worth checking out!

[u][b]A last-minute Call To Action![/b][/u]
Is there anyone coming along on the day who'd like to do a [b]talk/workshop/demo[/b] for us on the day? It could be about pretty much anything bass-related really.. To give you an idea, at recent Bashes we've had:[list]
[*]Theory workshops
[*]Double-bass workshops
[*]Gear demos
[*]Set-up workshops
[*]Talks about pre-amps & e.q, acoustics & cab design
[*]Talks from pro musicians
[/list]
Etc, etc..

At the last Herts Bash there was a really good P-Bass Test for example, so if anyone fancies doing something along similar lines, that'd be cool... Or a 'solid-state Vs valve amps' shoot-out would be good... Basically, anything that shares some good ideas, shows us something new and gets us thinking would be great!

So, if anyone would like to step forward at this late stage with an idea, a suggestion, please let us know! :)

Thanks and see you all next Saturday.

I don't want to give a talk, Nik, but I'll set up a double bass in the theatre and do some one to ones - or even one to fives if anyone wants a go.

Fantastic; thanks Roger!

I'm sure that will be really popular on the day.. :)

Would you like me to bring a DB down so that more people have a chance to try what you show them?

You or Colin should still have the box of prizes left over from last year's abortive Tombola ...

I don't have those Jack, so am assuming Colin has them..

Good idea about the DB by the way?

Does anyone know if drummer Paul is coming Saturday?
