I'm already preparing. Told my Mrs I wanted to get away at 6am. She said she has to go to work and give someone a suppository. I don't want to be held up so said I'd do it on the way....

Load your car up with all of the gear you are no longer using and I'll pull all of my secretly-stored bundles of notes from under the kids mattresses. Meet you round the back of the car park at lunch time :wink:

I've just packed it all down and I'm not sure how it'll go in the car. Especially if I'm picking up a Marshall on the way. Need a bigger car.

Somehow I missed this, is it a 2550 jubilee? I think this gearfest is going to be the best "amp" fest I've attended so far!

I'll bring my modded TS9 with me. Won't be able to stay long as I'll have the kids but happy to leave it with you if you're able to drop back to me when it finished? I'm aiming to drop by around sometime around 1-2pm :wink:

um :shock: given I have had a 20 watt amp at most of them I must have balls the size of the moon to make a statement like that :rofl: :rofl:

I like the rundown thing, although I always get nervous and never say anything really...usually goes "Amp has 3 channels, cleans not very clean but who needs clean anyway...I like the red for doing this (random squidel)...um yeah I like cheap guitars...who's next" :rofl:
If Less is More Then Just Think How Much More More would be

You guyz are all a bunch of n3rds.

Miniforklift - all good to bring the child if you need to - might be boring as to her but I can open the church hall and she can chill in there. I might have my kids with me as well (not looking forward to that).

See you all in 1hr 59mins.
Yup - that's me and my pal Steve or little stevie vai as I like to call him. In Auckland airport when I was 26. I'm not 26 anymore.

I'll hazard a guess that Molly's already waiting outside the church.
