UK pickers..anyone going to the London Guitar Show?

Essex Boy · April 19th, 2005, 10:51 AM

I'll be there on the Saturday. I'll be on the lookout for any nice kit...especially any groovy OD pedals.

Rick J · April 19th, 2005, 11:44 AM

I'll try to get there sometime over the weekend, - are you coming Peter B? Hopefully some of us can hook up.

That'd be sweet. Would I be included...as a newbie? :D

Telemaniac · April 19th, 2005, 12:28 PM

I'm going on the Saturday - I guess we can wear TDPRI tees or sweats?

meanbobs · April 19th, 2005, 12:28 PM

Didn't know about this but from the website it looks like fun. I might just pop down and take a look.

I could do with a new......etc.

Essex Boy · April 19th, 2005, 12:29 PM

Yeah! Is there no other Essex men around?

Planning to be there on the Saturday with my usual gang of kids (my son and his band playing mates

) in tow and spending my money!

Jonathan Wilson of Greenwich Village Custom Guitars (NYC) was toying with the idea of attending as an Exhibitor. Jonathan, are you going to be there?

Hey, Essex Boy. We're all Essex men at heart. Blinging!

:D Peter

Essex Boy · April 19th, 2005, 12:42 PM

Nottingham!? Bleh!

I've got a friend from Arnold, he's a good lad! ;)

Scotland · April 19th, 2005, 01:29 PM

Peter Bling knows Arnold, he bought a car from him !
I'd love to be there but unfortunately Britain ends around Manchester somewhere

John Potter · April 19th, 2005, 02:33 PM

I'm going on the Friday.
Don't forget the following shows:

Norwich Guitar Show Sunday June 6th
Norwich Sport Village

Birmingham Guitar Show September 11th
National Motorcycle Museum

We're looking to arrange some workshops with both acoustic and electric players at Brum, say about 10 people at each, with a couple of 'name' players, in addition to the usual programme of demos.

John Potter · April 19th, 2005, 02:34 PM

Sorry - tryping errot!

Norwich Sunday June 5th!

J-man · April 19th, 2005, 02:35 PM

Too far away.

Essex Boy · April 19th, 2005, 03:59 PM

I'm jonesin' hardcore for the voodoo labs superfuzz.

beachhutblues · April 19th, 2005, 05:05 PM

A friend of mine had a stall last year....and said it was a bit of a nightmare. Hot and VERY crowded.

Headache guaranteed.

Sorry to be a bit of a "downer"......just thought i'd warn you! :)

Essex Boy · April 19th, 2005, 05:25 PM

Been the last two years. Where in SE London are you? Nr. Dulwich?

beachhutblues · April 19th, 2005, 06:35 PM

Charlton/Blackheath/Greenwich way.

You?

Sarfend?

Essex Boy · April 21st, 2005, 05:59 PM

No thanks!

Shoreditch, or Epping.

meanbobs · April 27th, 2005, 09:35 AM

I haven't been before so,

For those that have been before (or those that have thoroughly read that website) - what stands/stalls/seminars should I be on the look out for?

Essex Boy · April 27th, 2005, 09:49 AM

It's all worth a look. There's loads of cool individual luthiers and manufacturers. I didn't go to the seminars hall, doubt I will this year either.

Telemaniac · April 27th, 2005, 11:47 AM

The seminar halls are probably worth a look - The Hamsters, Illegal Eagles, etc.

Essex Boy · April 27th, 2005, 12:41 PM

The hardly anything those guys can teach me. I'm beyond reproach.

Telemaniac · April 27th, 2005, 01:08 PM

Crossed wires EB - I meant the bands performing on the main stage - http://www.londonguitarshow.co.uk/stage1.cfm

Essex Boy · April 27th, 2005, 03:31 PM

Cool.

I was only mucking around btw. I'm not that cocky really!!
