Central location (a few hundred meters from the Harbour Bridge), heaps of parking, cheap and no immediate neighbours. No separate rooms for acoustic guitars +/- whatever a 'black mamba' is, but oh well.

Still looking into the school hall option. It might be too close to neighbours (and have no bathroom facilities).

Re: Auckland / Northland Gearfest
I'm guessing if you're going with your wife and kids you're only bringing one guitar and maybe one amp?mugamee wrote: ↑Sun Jul 04, 2021 8:40 pmI go there weekly with my son. He loves riding his scooter there. Yeah, sell it at a family activity

Re: Auckland / Northland Gearfest
I suspect there will be plenty of guitars and amps to go around.

At this rate we can hold it at my place. Three rooms, amp each
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

COVID obviously isn't permitting Auckland gearfest this weekend.
Reg and I had an impromptu mini-gearfest yesterday. Was bloody good fun. I think I'll pencil one in for Feb / March in Auckland.

Who has a diesel generator?
The Bishop strikes me as a black-grey burst PRS with gold hardware type of guy. And a stack of Mesa Boogie Rectos that aren't actually plugged in.
