  • howdo, 

    is there a separate thread for the Walsall bash or do I have to hunt through this thread for the details.

    Do we have a list of attendees/bodycount?

    cheers

    Sorry I haven't posted details yet, I've been so ill this week it's not even funny and I've had to go to work all week too so very little time to think.
    Walsall is on for the 30th. Let me park this truck up tonight and by tomorrow I will have all the details here for you.
    Sorry to everyone for my apparent lack of attention, I have been more ill in the last couple of weeks than anyone could imagine.

    Man flu, manthrax and ebola is what it felt like.
    Right, while knobheads r us transport have got me parked up endlessly waiting for the afternoon to unload, I've got some time to update this.

    So we are meeting on Saturday 30th May at :

    The Wheatsheaf Pub
    4 Birmingham Road
    Walsall
    West Midlands
    WS1 2NA

    As has been mentioned, we will have to stop around 9pm so meeting up between 2 and 3pm to give us enough time to set up and play without rushing.
    There is live music on that evening downstairs and by all accounts the pub is very good so after we have had our jam session there is still a great night ahead of us.
    @Iansavage has mentioned that there is some limited crashing space at his house and I believe we will be able to leave the equipment to pick up the following day for those who are staying in Walsall that night.

    If anyone has any questions about the actual event or songs they would like to play etc, PM me and I will do my best to help.

    Right then, so who's coming ?

    Just need to check my parents are ok to look after my kids for the afternoon so I can make it, pretty sure it'll be ok. I'll be driving there and back not stopping over, so if anyone's between me in Kenilworth and the venue let me know and I can give you a lift (but I'll most likely head after once the jam finishes).

    All of the Audio and Video that people can capture at these events will, with your permission, be collated and edited into a CD and or DVD at the end of the year. This will be used for Promo stuff next year and to give everyone who was involved something to keep and upstage the relatives at future christmas dinners !

    Any and all support in capturing audio and video at these Jam's is Very gratefully received and appreciated.

    As I said before, the most I can hope for is to put in an appearance at a Cambridge event (and you'll need to get in quickly, my gig diary between now and 2016 is already more than half full.) It's fantastic that you've got this off the ground, I hope it's a storming success.

    We're playing an engagement party on the Sunday. It's our first gig of the year after my ilness so we're rehearsing Wed & Thu that week to get back up to speed. Mrs Mudslide won't stand for a WS1 day out too I don't think. Apologies - it won't get any more local for me either. :(
