If you have five quid in your pocket to spend they'll probably pay for you to go there, Greece are f*ucked and we're all just waiting in line behind them.

A BKP meet could be good this year. You can show us all your riffs JP!  It will be nice to do that again before we're all f*cked!

I was talking to Twinfan about the possibility of another meet today.

Our last one (last summer) went pretty well I thought

Would it be worth repeating the exercise?
With advance notice might we tempt a few more of you guys to come along?

I will put on a display of guitars again for some extra eye candy

It would be awesome tomeet you 38TH beatle. q: p

And talking about beers... do you guys have anything similar to the German Weizenbier???
Otherwise ill drink a c--ktail or somethingn else. i dont like traditional beers. and i think guiness and other english/irish beers are too bitter and strong for me. Q: P
or does they taste different in ENGLAND ?

I think I'll do more socialising (ie drinking) than playing this time.

The thought of sitting there with a couple of beers and Johnny Macs Big Koch blasting right into my face sounds appealing

I'll be over in England in early May.  I'll be visiting with Tim and picking up a new Bravewood.   I'll also be looking at a new Wez build, but with his other new 'build', it might not be ready!  I will also be over later in the summer, so depending on timing, that would be a possiblility too.   I'd need a hotel too.

I could also do with knowing a fair bit in advance so I can get some train tickets booked.

If I leave it too close to the day it'll be too expensive  :shock:

Yep, agreed - thats what killed the London meet for me last year too, was gonna be over £100 in train fares.

If I know three month in advance, I can book the cheap Newcastle-London train tickets for £12 each way.  Sure its the same for everyone.

Sounds like its getting plenty of interest. It would be great to see you at a meet Steve. I know you're always gigging but if you put some available dates into the hat, there's a good chance it can be arranged so you can come.
JP it would be great to see you at a meet too. You would love it! There are so many gorgeous guitars to play! There were a few Blackmachines there last time, they're right up your street.  :twisted:

I'd be happy to heave my Koch up the stairs again for servicing aural needs  :? :lol:

If I can get a chance to attend I'll come along. I already have plans about visiting a friend who's living in London at the moment and playing/listening to some BKP equipped guitars and drinking some beers sounds like a winner.

A bit confused here, are we talking about a meeting in general or a meeting in London for certain? I live in Birmingham, so not too far away, but in general prefer travelling north like Manchester instead of London.
For me though, it's less the costs but the time, that is the problem. I didn't have a lot of free days lately and lots of work on the weekend too.

After Easter would be better for me.
Title: Re: When will you guys be doing the next BKP UK Meeting?
Post by: Johnny Mac on February 25, 2012, 05:24:24 PM
Twinfan and Shobet have done bkp meets in Manchester. This is about a London meet that we have done before in a bar in Croydon. It also gives Jonathon a great opportunity to show forum members his guitars. It's good for us too as we can play them.
Jonathon, do you know if that bar still available to use?

We need to start looking at dates. I'm away in Spain the last week of May. Any time apart from that is good.

I would certainly be up for this but I can't promise that I'd be able to make it. I'm off on a long location shoot in late March for at least a month, maybe two, and after that I'll be working pretty flat out until the film's release date in October. All that said, there's a fair chance that whichever day is picked (assuming I'm not shooting) I can probably sneak off for a bit so I'll keep watching the thread with interest. :)

I need to know the dates about 8 - 12 weeks earlier if possible, just to give me anysort of fighting chance to be able to afford the train fare.

This obviously doesn't have to affect the actual dates, but it affects it for me  :lol:

I would also need to know a good while in advance to be able to get time of work as we now have to book AL 2 months in advance but sometimes if im lucky i can get it in a month in advance.

The pre booking on train fares is also a massive help too.
