    Does anyone have a preference for when we should organise this...

    July?

    A weekend in July would suit me (except Sat 20)

    I'd be up for it, schedule permitting (busier with gigs at the moment compared to a couple of years ago). 1st weekend in September seemed to work well in previous years . . .
    July not good for me

    1st weekend in September, as I said! Mid-August to mid September in general has possibilities

    I'd suggest avoiding August - people might be away on their hols. Schools restart on September 4th, so the first weekend (7th) should be fine.

    I'm 70% yes for 7th Sept - have booked it in the family diary but
    1) I may have a gig (20% chance)
    2) There may be a family event that day - it's going to be sometime in September (10% chance)
    Happy to pay share of the subs required for the day and leave it as a contribution to the general bonhomie if I can't make it

    As in live in West Herts (1 mile from Bucks), anything west of Cambridge is attractive
    Imagine something sharp and witty here ......

    Cool beans.

    Hols this week but I'll check availability when I get back.

    7th sept is currently not a gigging date. As long as herself doesn't decide I 'need a holiday', I'm free and game.

    Lots of village halls round my way (around five miles south of Eye) but right out in the sticks.
    A Deuce , a Tele and a cup of tea.

    That's far enough ahead to be bookable.

  • I'm assuming this is not happening.

    It would be fun though - I hope we can sort something out in future.

    Unfortunately I'm completely tapped out with my new job so the chances of me finding the time to organise anything is minimal.

  • I wouldn't recommend Resonant / Half-ton. Small rooms, poor acoustic isolation and dire PA.  In Cambridge, Rhinocorn is the best bet - but the largest room is only big enough for a ~6 piece band.

    I haven't been to Rhinocorn since it was Mulletboy but it used to be awful -- tiny rooms with wood veneer everywhere that made them horribly splashy. Has that changed?

    The two main rooms at Resonant will easily hold a six-piece band and the acoustics in the main one are fine. I work there regularly so if you want to do anything there I can talk to the owner and sort anything out that needs sorting.

    Hey Nick & others - any interest in resuscitating this thread?

    Perhaps a Sat afternoon / eve late in Feb or early Mar?  Nothing elaborate, just a few amps, a few guitars and a few old guys ...

    @TTony ; yep I'd be up for that. 

    I've got the Cam half marathon on the 8 March, but maybe after that it could be a goer.

    So 14 or 21 Mar?

    If you can check availability of that village hall at the bottom of your garden, then we set a date / time and see who'd be up for it.

    Whatever date  is chosen, there will always be some people that can make, and some that can't - easier logistically to set *a* date, and then see who fancies it.

    As you said originally, definitely not a jam session!

    Not sure if East Anglia includes mid Essex, but I'd be up for popping along if there's room. Not in a band at the mo, and it would be good to be able to turn up loud and talk crap about gear
