Would be even better if someone could bring a bass/bass amp too. I have a bass, it sounds good through the Classic 50, but I might not still have the Classic 50, not sure. If I buy a Bassman, well then I'll be covered eh. Dunno if I'd want to try the Maz as a Bass amp!

No probs. That's what I did last time, that's what I'm going to do this time. :)

What date do we like? I reckon either the last Saturday in October (31st) or the first or second Saturday of November.

Any preferences amongst you fullahs?

don't think I can make this one, we're doing quite a bit of gigging over the next couple of months or so. Better placate the missus even if we aren't gigging on the day ;)

It turns out November would be better for me. I can do the 31st but not easily or for as long.
