Work on Saturday, looks like I'll have to flag it. We need a Palmy or Wanganui gearfest! Maybe Hawera (haha, like anyone goes to Hawera as a destination.)

Looks like I won't have a car - is there anyone who could give my gear a lift from the Courtney Place area to Cuba? otherwise it will be me minus gear.
Way less fun.

I'm coming too. Got a new electric p-bass thing, the usual acoustic and the Jedson.

Perhaps I can give you a lift, Ben, but I need to unload first.

Ill be there along with ED, I'll have my Tele, PRS, Dark Terror and the Joyo pedals. I'll bring some tools for those that want a real basic setup done.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...
