Okay - the venue is booked between 2 and 7 on Sunday July 18th
We should have plenty of space
It would be nice to see as many folks as possible

Johnny Mac - maybe you could change the title of this thread to include the date /place
Or should I start a new thread?

[badgermark]

I'm in! Bring along Excalibur (the tele) and possibly my SG with MQs. Still undecided on transport, what's the parking like Jon?

[38thBeatle]

I might actually be able to make this one with any luck. I am gigging the night before and have a long journey home but hopefully I'll be there and bring  a plank or two.

Just a note to all the other forum readers
Please note this isn't just a closed circle of friends getting together - in spite of many of us having made each other's acquaintance before.
It is open to any of the BKP forumites (even if you haven't posted)
It will be a fun afternoon and be a great chance to get to know other guys like yourselves who are mad about guitars and pickups, amps and stuff.
We are not pro level players and it isn't an organised jam session in any way
We usually end up just trying out each others guitars and having a laugh and all learning stuff (the fun way)

There aren't many rules (apart from being nice to each other and not nicking each others guitars, picks or beer)

The event will run from 2 till 7pm (longer in the bar later perhaps) on Sunday 18th July
It is upstairs at The Scream Lounge
Scream Studios                              
20A Southend
Croydon
Surrey
CRO 1DN

Nearest rail = South Croydon, East Croydon (probably busiest station) or West Croydon (London Overground as well)
Lots of buses running to outside the studio as well
Road users - South End is part of the A235 and is easily accessed from M25/M23/A23

To follow on from Felines' words-- it's not the kind of atmosphere where you feel watched or critiqued by other members-- there's usually a few amps going, and people plugging in each others guitars into them, and just having a laugh; it's not a formal event at all, and there's no pressure to play either..... it's just good fun! :) It's also good to put faces to names, don't think i've met a bad BKPer yet!

Mark: there is Pay and Display bays outside (not sure if P&D is on a Sunday, or if it's free), and there's a car park opposite which is also Pay and Display, but again i'm not sure what the deal is on Sundays... i'll try and find out as i'll be going past there sometime soon on the way to the bike shop :)

I hope you all have a marvellous time on the 18th! I will be on a plane to Ibiza :)

Just leave the V with the T-Tops in a black bin-bag round the back of Scream Studios - we'll make sure it's OK for you :D

[MrBump]

I think that I might be able to come.

For those that haven't met me before, I'll be the tall handsome one in the Mr Bump t-shirt...

You can always come over and try it, or borrow it for a few days and bring it to the meet..
