Hi Bas,

Instead of going to this show, would it be a bad idea to save up and meet ,say in London or Frankfurt next year?

Alternatively, we could just set up a meeting in the U.K. or in Belgium.

You're all welcome in my place anytime you want, just use my e-mail address to get in touch and we'll arrange something.

Cheers,;)

Undoubtedly there'll be some of that, but there'll also be people like Allen Wright, Lynn Olson, Gary Pimm, Garry Dahl and Bruce Edgar there too.

Beautiful? Stupendously ugly IMO.

We're in a good mood today aren't we? Must be full moon.

Cool Frank, I'll PM you my address so you can send me my plane tickets.
 
Hi John,

Not a quaint little northern band.

Clive Messer from South of the Thames who I know quite well. He went last year and persuaded me to go. Two other people Ray Paice and Scott Woods who I don't know, both bottleheads I believe. Clive has just built a Bottlehead amp but he has a whole range of stuff he's built and kept.

We're all travelling together from Hethrow.

I have never built a Bottlehead product, but I did try hooking up an el cheapo parafeed (not that the topology belongs to Bottleheads, I have it in an encyclopaedia which predates RDH). Yes it sounded good.

Can't help but wonder, does your name have anything to do with B16a?

Didn't know if it's one of those l33k type things...


:rolleyes:
