When I lived there Pete, Enfield & Barnet were very much 'London', albeit a bit suburban.. Perhaps we should see if Her Majesty will hire out a room in Buck Palace for an afternoon?

Pete, Enfield & Barnet? Is that like Crosby Stills and Nash? bever mind. I've been drinking

[quote name='Jerry_B' post='704443' date='Jan 7 2010, 05:04 PM']Don't worry about that - it'll be a laugh. I've been playing bass for yonks but I don't have anything fancy in my repetoire - I prefer the opposite in fact [/quote]

I can cope with a laugh, so long as nobody expects me to play anything more complex than three blind mice all will be well...

Depending on precisely where and when I might be able to make it too....

No guarantees though

Will you bring your Berg ?

If I can come along I'll be bringing my Berg.

If he's not snowed with something else I'm pretty sure Plux would like to come along too, and he'll be bringing his Bergs too in that case (HT115 and HT210 stack)

So yes, there would be Bergantino aplenty in that case

[BassJase]

I'd be well up for a bash in North London (or London in general...)
I lived in Enfield until last summer and know of a couple of places that might be do-able (small studios/rehearsal places) and might let us have it for a reasonable rate.

If I can help with any organising then just let me know, I still visit Enfield every week so can easily pop in somewhere if needed? (and I'm only in Finsbury Park now so its not a million miles away!)

[ash_sak]

Sounds like a great plan to me.

I'd offer my equipment for people to borrow but it's far from anything special.

I'd be happy to help with promo. if there was something i could do.

[JackLondon]

So where are we at with this London Bash ? Seems a bit dead now ?

As I said before if the OP doesn't want to organise it I'm to.

[JackLondon]

I can help with organising it coz I've got loads a time so shall we maybe agree on some sort of a ballpark date ?

[urb]

I'd really like to see this happen, if there's anything I can do to help please let me know, I'd like it if someone could suggest and or find a venue - about time we got a London one sorted, I might be able to pursuade the chaps from the Gallery to get involved... M

Hi Guys,

Ive emailed afew places in the camden area, just waiting for a reply. This place looks good!

We should be able to find a hall from one of the above. Costs if good would need to be split between us all, how many of us are likely to attend.

Cheers,

Robbie.

You mentioned before about finding a drummer etc. to do stuff. I play drums as my main instrument (started in '99) and would be up for that.

Hi folks

Would you please vote for the month that would suit you best for this event.

I could have done this a while ago, but got distracted with other issues TBH.

For now, I'm would like to get this event off the ground and suggest to everyone that for this year, we adopt the 'keep it simple option' suggested by some good people here.
The general consensus seems to be just one or two rooms for this year. Is that ok for now everyone ?

I began a while ago with the idea of organising an event that would suit the majority of people, with the aid of some excellent feedback from previous events. This kind of thing, while well intentioned, has proved to be too complex to organise in the very short term and is perhaps better organised over a longer time period.

For anyone that has got fed up, felt ignored at all or in other ways felt dissappointed with the things so far on this project, please accept my apologies. I hope this all works out soon
