BKP chapter meet London Guitar Show 2008.
« on: December 07, 2007, 08:58:26 AM »
Couldn't help but notice alot of the guys on the boards getting together for meets which is a fantastic idea.
The London Guitar Show is going to be a huge event next year, it's a 4 dayer- June 12/13/14/15 at Excel/Docklands.
How about we organize an official BKP meet?It's far enough in the future to be able to sort out something decent and whilst we endeavor to meet/talk to everyone during the show it'd be nice to hook up with all the forum members and put faces to names outside of the chaos of the guitar show(which as those of you who've attended will know is pretty damn noisy!).
Let me know if you think it's a good idea and I'll start kicking some ideas around.

Sounds like a great idea  :)  Count me in.

How about we each bring a BKP-equipped guitar as entry to the meet?  That way we can try out each other's axes?  Especially those with non-standard selections that work well?

I guess someone needs to provide amps though.....

we could hire a biig rehersal studio.. shouldn't be much between all of us.

curry also sounds good

Thats a good idea!

I'll be at the show even though we are taking a break from exhibiting.
Since Chris' death I decided that needed a year off from doing the show as doing the prep all by myself would probably be too much overload - especially when I have a lot of custom axes to get finished for guys too!

I hate exams :( I mean, why do they always have to be on the days and weeks you don't want
