and this time i'll have a bit of new gear to show yous too
a "normal"ish rounded guitar (Eagle)
the refinished Cort pointy
my finished pedalboard/case (this thing would easily survive the "Vox test" as long as the velcro holds) :wink: :twisted:
ultra pointy Balalaika :mrgreen:
Hurdy Gurdy.... some how... and I'm not entirely certain how mind you, an instrument that sounds like someone has shoved a nest of angry hornets into a goose with a kazoo bill and is randomly slapping the poor creature with an accordion.... Sounds amazing.

If we're set on the 10th we can see if Lawrence can hook us up with the Whitireia space in Cuba St again. If not we can cast around for somewhere.

Hopefully I can get someone else to do sound desk that week. Should be able to. (Sundays are not fantastic for me, but are do-able.)

I'll bring the Tele and a bunch of pedals you lot ain't seen yet :)

Usually have band practice on that day, but I'll try and get out of it, and bring the other guitarist in the band too.

Just had it pointed out to me that we've got a combined kids' birthday party on that day for a bunch of friends, but the missus has given me the all clear to go gearfesting after that, so I should still be cool.
