Wellington Gearfest November 14th

Post by bender »

Saturday 1pm-6pm at Eclipse- 1 Jackson St, Petone. $15-$20 per person would be appreciated depending on the turnout.

We've got both rooms and there's a drumkit we can use if anyone wants to have a bash or knows a drummer.

Bring your best chops and let's make some noise!

The game is 8pm. Should be enough time to get there.

You're far too modest Ben, you are a fine musician. Hopefully I can make it too, show off the Maz.

Ooooh It's three days before my final performance exam... hmmm It could be just the kind of study break I need :D

So I'm down as a yes at this stage. Will bring: PRS, probably ESP, Boogie, Legacy 2x12" maybe my flightcased 1x12" with EVM12L if I get around to finishing it in time (not looking likely) and simplified-but-still-insane-pedalboard-of-doom. Maybe a new guitar too if I'm lucky 8) Quite likely actually..

If circumstances allow (they do right now) I'll drive down. Make a nice change. I'll have to drive back to Wangas after it's all over, though, most likely, not paying for a motel.

I'll bring my Vintage Modified and my Satin Trans Fat strats. Won't bother bringing my MG15CD :P

I'll also admit I had thought of waiting until I have something noteworthy to show off, since I can't play worth a damn. And I'll be able to prove this next month.
