SimonK Posted July 31 Posted July 31 Just to manage expectations - as I am getting excited about this already - is there any reason why I can't pack my car with cabs and other random bass kit I have collected over the years, and then just comment on the day that I am open to offers should anyone else want to buy any of it from me? Note I am not a business, just someone whose bass collection has got a little bit out of control and this could be a good opportunity to pass some bits of it on to others without faffing with ebay/postage? 1 Quote

There's always been a sale table - no reason why this can't be the case here. 1 Quote

Yep (ref. pg#3). Do we need to give any disclaimers regarding that "the management accepts no responsibility", etc.? Quote

Living up here isn't exactly conducive to a life in the thick of the bass world!! I'm about three hours away from the venue, so at the moment I'm not sure. I'd love to be there otherwise! 1 Quote

What would folk like from a mini-clinic / talk / nerdy ramble / tech lesson / theory and technique teaching workshop? 2 Quote
prowla Posted July 31 Posted July 31 I'd just like to point out that this venue is a single hall, so we can organise the talks as interludes between folks bashing their basses (or is it vice-versa!). We've got about 5 hours to play with, so it should work out about right. 1 Quote

What about a chat on the practical use of compression for the gigging bass player? Some compression chats can get overly technical and alienate some folk. Quote
police squad Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago what about 'is it any good for metal' discussion/masterclass 1 Quote
Wombat Posted 43 minutes ago Posted 43 minutes ago I’m still not 100% certain I can attend but I was going to bring my Livetrack-12, NUX MG-30 & Stomp so people can have an idea of what ‘no amp’ can sound like. And be able to play as loud as they like without annoying anyone else. I have a few spare earbud tips and wet wipes but remember to stick your own headphones/earbuds in! Also if anyone is thinking of travelling from Bromley/Orpington area I have space in the car! Quote
