phil_the_bassist Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Ok, I'm opening this thread in case any of you other mobile bassist would like to help our less motorised brethren attend this event. Even with my full stack (If I take it) I'll have at least 3 spare seats in my car (4, if people don't mind having basses laid on their laps on the back seat!). With this is mind, I'm more than happy to pick up/drop off BCers who are on my route...especially if they want to make a very reasonable contribution to my petrol/entry costs I'm going to be driving from South Newbury, thru to Basingstoke, and near Fleet and Aldershot toget to the Guildford Travelodge. Any Chatters on that route require assistance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onehappybunny Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 If anyone wants a lift to make the short trip from Godalming, just give me a shout as I should have space in the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbass Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 I'll be dropping down from Crystal Palace, through Croydon, Caterham, thence round the magic roundabout to the M3. Or, I might come out through Clapham/Wandsworth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterbass Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 I always think that a Warwick Profet 5.1 should be like a Dolby surround sound thingy... creates these images of some poor guy surrounded by loads of bass amps going deaf. Bit like BassBash[sup]tm[/sup] I guess... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamster Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 I live very close to Guildford, but am happy to give a lift to anyone who needs it from the KT15 area. I'm also happy to run a bass taxi service to and from Guildford train station / local bus stops for anyone without wheels. Hamster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamster[/quote] I [i]think[/i] that one of the free bus services that runs around Guildford [i]may[/i] head out that way towards Tesco's from the station for those with just basses. I shall try to check that out when I am back in the office on Wednesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete.young Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Anyone from the Ipswich area interested in going along to this? I know it's not exactly the South East, but it's probably about the same distance as Northampton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZMech Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I just responded to G-77 about his offer, so i'm not sure if I should be asking this, but is there anyone going from north london (i'm in barnet) with a space? just as it would avoid having to take a tube to west london Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
