It would be great if it was run more often because the last one was pretty cool, but obviously the Capt has a business to run, so can't.
The last one did seem to go really fast, I was just getting settled in when it was all over. I spent too much time outside on the gaspers :roll:

Edit: It would be cool to find an informal regular venue for a NZG social club thing where we bring our amps and stuff to just make noise, hang out, talk music and eat pizza etc on a more regular basis.

I think I'd get bored of them if we had them all the time. I think having them spaced out makes them something to look forward to, and then more people will come.

How long do these things usually last? I've been put off in the past by working a lot of weekend days, always wondered if it's worth trying to get there after work.

AR, experience has shown us that a decent amount of time between gearfests works better.

Stormy, they normally run from about midday to 6pm. Seems to be a ideal amount of time for most guitarists attention span.

though it's preferable if you polish your sausage off at home, either before or after the fest...
