Wellington Gearfest - 5th June

Post by Polar Bear »

Hey guys. Seeing as Mr Henderson has once again graced us with his precence, how does another Welly jam sound?

I haven't organized one of these, but am happy to do so if no-one else is.

I haven't been to the last few, what venue is best?

Who is free when?

Interest?

I'll be disappointed if you're not a sexually attractive Japanese lady, Ed. These are my assumptions.

We usually have them at Eclipse in Petone, which usually works out to $10 - $20 a head. Ideal venue because there's two seperate rooms to set up in.

What, the lady ninjas? So you put them all in one room, and the gear in the other?

I thought Eclipse rates went up or something? Benderissimo was probably in touch with them last, he can confirm.

I'm keen

I'd be interested, no major hassles date wise at the mo. And yes, I still suck ass.

I'm kinda hoping it doesn't happen until I've got some kind of show-off worthy amp though! :lol:

It'd be nice if we had one in Wanganui, then I could get utterly smashed. As it is, I have to stay totally sober to make it past the work-of-Satan motorway and get back home.
