    Steely Dan + Stevie Winwood playing in Birmingham Sat night - 23rd
    I'll see what I can do
    why - Do you have contacts etc to either get a few tickets and or block - I'm interested in going - normally go back home on a Sat as only 1 hour away - But other option is Manchester gig on Thursday before 21st, but somehow logical to do the show, then the gig and stay over this year all in Brum

    Liverpool are away to Man United on Saturday 23rd.
    Wrong division, don't pay any attention to that this year
    I thought you were the hairy godmother?

    The coffee guy was popular last year - he had a queue from opening time to about 3pm!

    Also, can we have the FB name badges back?  
    With a "please return to stand 57 if found wandering aimlessly" message on it?
    Having trouble posting images here?  This might help.

    No, I meant to see if I could get them to come along to the show, unlikely but if you don't ask...

    Don't forget I do a hotel deal for exhibitors

    A sensible sized Thefretboard sticker or pin badge would allow people to identify fellow forum members on the day, and joe public will see them and recognise the stand when they see it. 
    Karma......

    A baseball cap would work too.

    Have you got yours?  ;)

    You never have a How to Find bit on your website, always people on here asking the best ways to get there. I know most people can just google it these days but it's not an obvious place to get to if not driving. 
    Tipton is a small fishing village in the borough of Sandwell.

    Yeah may be I should, I just never think about it, I have a phone that gets me everywhere, I'll put up some info about distance from train stations, which number buses etc. I used to have a google map, but they now charge you as a business (quite a lot)

    Didn't know you'd be charged for that, think they'd be happy for the traffic. We have Bing maps at work, the address of every person on the database ( essentially the population of Worcestershire ) can be opened up in Bing. Apparently much cheaper ( as I understand it the Bing system is the Uber one) although the complexity of the pricing when I googled  ( how ironic...) it confused me quite a lot.

    Yep, its a new thing, I suppose that google can't be free for ever, I suspect this is the way the internet will go

    I've added distance from New Street and Snow Hill, plus the Jewellery Quarter local train, plus the buses that stop outside.

  • @jason , one of the things I like about The Guitar Show is that it keeps getting better.   I also know that there are going to be some great deals at the show.  It is actually possible to save more than the price of entry with some astute consumable sales .
