I'm thinking of heading down to the big smoke for the LGS on the Saturday. Just looking into trains/planes and possibly crashing over on the Fri night.
Anyone else going on the Saturday???
-
me, ben, phil, the bkp crew, jonathan and dave too i believe will be there all weekend.
see ya there :D
-
yup - will be there
Hope to have Davey and Afghan Dave helping out amongst others and i think Ben and Phil King will be helping at BKP or just having fun
Hope to see you all there
-
I'm going on the Friday...
-
dave is helping out too?
oh dear me
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
good to hear :D:D:D
-
I'm there (with the missus in tow) for the Saturday.
Andy!
-
I will be there, with 99.5% certainty. The only thing that will keep from attending will be the possibility of a tour that week, but at this point it looks like I'll be in England. Sat. night is British Steel fest, too!!!!!!! \m/

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Yeh dude... I'll learn the harmony part of Technical Difficulties if you fancy a good laugh.. :wink:
Really looking forward to this year as I "should" be mobile and stood on my own two feet!

^ Promises, promises!

^ Promises, promises!
Oh that reminds me... I'll bring that "Chicks with Dicks" DVD I was telling you about last year... :wink: :twisted: :lol:
You seemed quite interested.... :D :D :D
-
a bit too interested if you ask me LMAO
if you do learn it, learn the 2nd part (the higher one) hehehe
i'm at a dilemma though.. bring my charvel, or bring my jackson :P
i'll be picking up a neck pickup for the jackson @ LGS .. and if i got the jackson, i could possibly wire it in right away hehehe... but it's not in a show state, cos i cant be arsed to set it up and all...
i'll probably bring my charvel.
-
I'll be there with my ESP methinks :p
-
i dont think you can bring guitars in, if you are a visitor though.. venue policy, cos they have some vintage and quite a lot of custom axes in there and someone could walk out with one.
-
I'm going to be there every day. I have my earplugs, my support earplugs, my spare pair of earplugs and my extra spare pair, in case the others get lost. Oh and just in case I will give Ben an extra spare pair too!!!
I know many of you think it isn't too loud, but when you are there all day the residual background noise is a problem and towards the end of the day you are really staring to struggle to hear people! I'm not sure how it will be in ExCel as it is larger than Wembley, but the size could make it magnify the sound more if everyone is in one large room.

I remember reading that they ask you to have receipts for anything you walk out with, which would be totally lame =/
Hope they have a large number of rather nice axes for us to play then, cos if someone hands me a squier or a cheap yamaha to try out some phat amps or effects I'll be upset ;(

Nope... I doubt there will be anything there that's much better than a Pacifica 112.. :roll: (apology - sarcasm is my lowest form of wit)
See you on the Feline guitars stand - I think you might find something there to tickle your taste buds :wink:
-
That's where I'll be heading straight away :>
-

i doubt it.. at wembley it took me half an hour to find the stands..
and of all the people i see the hobbi... err i mean ben first LOL
and like i said. lots of custom guitars. custom shop deans, some prs, felines, last year blackmachine was there too, so a LOT of high end gear is being shown off and dealt with there
-
I am really fed up with not being able to go but I did think that depending upon what time I get home on the Sunday morning(I am flying back from the USA that day), I might be up for it but the missus has told me not to be so stupid. Whatever you do, take lots of pictures please gents.
-
Will do.
Will make a placard saying "For 38th" and get random people to hold it while I photo if ya want :p
-
we'll be like japanese tourists just for you steve :D
-
I'm heading down on Saturday too, looking forward to it. Certainly have to stop off at the BK stand!
-
I think you all know what I look like, as I don't know what most of you look like.

Feel free to say hi when you see me!
-
when you walk around the BKP and Feline stands, watch out where you're stepping, cos there is a good chance i'll be rolling on the floor laughing my ass off, cos of Daves stories :lol:

jonathan, johny and me last year.
-
I _HAVE_ to try the Gothic SG *drool*
And I'll prolly say hi to a bunch of you :p
Jonathan - Try get the Feline stand and the BKP stand pretty close together :p
Do you get a choice of where you are in the floorplan?
-

We are almost opposite BKP - as BKP have a kind of triangular stand this year, so we are about as close as is possible, and next to the PRS stand too
We will bring the Gothic along just for you!
It's just been fitted with an Earvana so it's even better now!!
Try it out when you come along....
-
AWESOME!
Will do! :D

Hey, cheap Pacificas are way cool! :)
(not actually sarcasm, mainly coz I own one.. :oops: ) :lol:
-
I think i'm gonna go on the saturday. Last year was pretty cool, Though I wish I could of turned those Framus Dragons up a notch.
-
Right, the friend I was going to stay with is out of town that weekend. Bugger. Might have to get a hotel instead.
Is anyone staying over on the Sat night anywhere? I was planning on crashing at the Ibis on Docklands for £60...
-
SWEET! Hayden and the guys from MatAmp are on the bill too!
i cant wait!!
anybody seen afghan dave around?

Travelodge in City Airport has £26 rooms. Davey, Ben and I are in there, but we're going to the British Steel Fest on Saturday Night.
-
Cheers Phil.
Looks like I won't be going to LGS after all. I was going so I could try out a VOS Gibson SG somewhere but after contacting Peter Cooks, Gibson Europe etc no-one can confirm they'll have one at the show. Not even Gibson :(
-

I dont even think that Gibson's distributor : Rosetti will be at the show although Gibson Europe are supposed to be there
So that means no official stand for BC Rich or Rickenbacker
I dont think that even Fender will be there
A lost opportunity and very short sighted in some ways
-
Yep, no Rosetti just the Gibson Europe bus. And they can't tell me what guitars will be on it as "they vary". Very useful :roll:
-
I'll be there Sat or Sun or even both!
-
\m/
jonathan, do you have to report, or otherwise tell the venue, which guitars you will have on your stand, for security reasons?
-
Methinks i'll go for the Saturday hoe-down, should be good fun :)
