josh3184 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 (edited) STICKER I think, hoping to be in leeds that weekend so there's a chance I can pop in! Any other lefties coming? And I can bring one bass so does anyone have a preference? Also, am I right in thinking that if you're on leeds road coming into harrogate you take a right down the road just before the saab garage on the right hand side and head down there to this place?

steve Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I'm hoping to come along to this, what's the deal regarding 'security'? if we bring our gear along, and then leave it lying around while we're drooling at other peoples, how do we know some scrote (from the general public, not a forum member obviously) isn't going to nick something?

Born 2B Mild Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 Security is a good point. Yes, the venue is tucked away, so passers bye are unlikely. Yes, there are members of the snooker club around within the building, but I dare say they'd give our room a wide berth. Yes stickers will help to identify legitimate visitors (thanks Yorks5stringer ...how many stickers have you got up to now?). And I'm in the same boat as you all ...got gear there and don't want it nicked. For the Jim Fleeting talk, we may have to walk to another room BUT I will have family members pressganged in to guarding the hall that we are in, whilst that's on. BTW the venue owner is keen to ensure that noise levels aren't so high as to upset the neighbours. Mind you, they do have gigs and discos regularly. Mind you, if it gets very loud it is not going to be healthy or enjoyable. As for being near anywhere. It is near a park (but it's winter). Harrogate's very nice central shopping district is a good mile away. Personally, I recommend the Turkish Baths! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niceguyhomer Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 (edited) Hoping to have my Spector Euro 5LX with me c/w newly installed ACG02 preamp if anyone's interested in trying it. I've got spare seats in my motor if anyone wants a lift. My route will be along the A59 from Preston all the way to Harrogate - I don't mind a small deviation from the route to pick someone up but no piss takers please .

OutToPlayJazz Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Damn! I was really looking forward to my trip to Harrogate.
