VIEW FULL LIVE VERSION : Sac/Bay/Stockton GTG?
FretFree 08-23-2006, 10:36 PM OK... this has been killing me.
I know there are MANY TBers from around this area. Is anyone willing to host a GTG or even interested in participating? I would love an excuse to check out some gear and hang with some like minded folks.
:bassist:
Anyone?
Basschair 08-23-2006, 10:38 PM You know, I've never been to one of these GTG's before, but I'd totally be into it...so, +1 from me (in Stockton).
FretFree 08-24-2006, 09:23 AM Excellent!
Aweseome, Basschair!
Anyone else?
I would think that this could be a good time... and I'm sure there are more than two of us out here up for the event!
Basschair 08-24-2006, 01:44 PM This would probably have more luck in the "off topic" forum. Want to hit up one of the Misc. forum mods to move it?
I'm in (Modesto, CA) It would be great to meet like minded bassists (or even unlike minded basists)
Basschair 08-24-2006, 02:03 PM ...3...
FretFree 08-24-2006, 02:04 PM Jady--
Great to hear!
Per Basschair's suggestion I'm having the Mods move this thread to Off Topic.
I'm sure there are move of you out there! NorCal GTG? Oh yeah!
Riley R 08-24-2006, 02:05 PM I'm from Modesto, I would be awesome to meet some fellow Tber's
thewanderer24 08-24-2006, 06:17 PM I am already way too busy for my own good, but if the scheduling works, I'd love to join a get together.
FretFree 08-25-2006, 03:45 PM Great!
People are starting to look...
I know there are some more TBers in Sac and the Bay!
bassjamn 08-25-2006, 04:15 PM Great!

Hi Ian,
I would try to make a GTG around here as well.

FretFree 08-25-2006, 11:57 PM Chris!
How's it going? It's been a while!
It may take a little while, but I think we have the makings for an excellent little get together right here in lovely Northern California!
kserg 08-26-2006, 03:50 AM There been few threads about this lately, there was one that was not sticky and kind of went away (mostly people from bay area).
Anyway i am down depending on date, i am in San Jose area al though posting from Yuba city area right now.
Depending on time i should be passing Sac quite a few times in next month(s) to come.
bassjamn 08-26-2006, 12:46 PM Chris!

Going good here.
Hopefully the GTG planning goes well :)

Yeah... I figured that might be the case so I asked the Mods to sticky it for us.
Glad you're interested!
I think in the next week we'll be able to enter the planning phase!
DigthemLows 08-29-2006, 04:34 PM i'm in sactoe
FretFree 08-30-2006, 08:54 AM It's coming together, people!
I am leaving town for a week... When I get back maybe we can hammer out the logistics?
I know there are more players out here. I'm glad you guys are all interested.
FretFree 08-31-2006, 02:11 PM OK...
I know there are not a ton of us involved, but I'm ready to throw out a date:
Saturday, 9/16
How does this work for anybody/everybody? My family will be out of town and would lend itself very well to me hosting the event at my home.
If anyone else would like to host or have it on a different date, please let me know!
Thanks!
Basschair 08-31-2006, 02:24 PM That could work for me.
FretFree 09-01-2006, 02:28 PM Is it just going to be you and me Basschair?
Maybe I should start PMing everyone else...
bassjamn 09-01-2006, 02:35 PM ugh, That weekend might be bad for me(had a group road ride planned already)
I'll find out for sure by mid week.
bassteban 09-01-2006, 03:44 PM I'd love to meet real NorCal TBers in action. I suck but could bring 2 very nice basses(& 1 not-too-shabby). I'm in Vacaville.
Basschair 09-01-2006, 06:51 PM Is it just going to be you and me Basschair?
Maybe I should start PMing everyone else...
:D
pierce 09-07-2006, 09:11 AM could be doable for me, although i was hoping it would be closer to oakland...where the heck is elk grove? :)
Basschair 09-07-2006, 11:26 AM could be doable for me, although i was hoping it would be closer to oakland...where the heck is elk grove? :)
:D
It's where they keep busting the pot growing operations...could be a fun town;)
FretFree 09-07-2006, 12:43 PM Elk Grove is just south of Sac... 10 minutes or so.
OK, guys: who can make the 9/16 date? I want to get this date down or find a new one.
Let me know...
jazzbo 09-07-2006, 05:06 PM 9/16 is my birthday, so that's out for me. Where is this going to be? I'm in SF, and would find it hard to get to Central Valley.
FretFree 09-07-2006, 07:02 PM Jazzbo et al--
I'm planning on hosting on 9/16 in Elk Grove (Sac). My family is actually out of town, so this will be the only time I will be able to host. If anyone can host in another location and/or another time, that would be great.
I'd love some more responses so I can know if I should plan for Sat, 9/16 or not.
I, obviously, am all for it... but I am pretty flexible, too! :-)
Basschair 09-08-2006, 06:55 PM I'm still up for it, and will keep it open. If it doesn't work, just keep me posted, and I'll keep another weekend open.
FretFree 09-11-2006, 07:40 AM OK.
This is the official roll call: who can make it Saturday 9/16?
If I don't get responses, I'll start PM-ing. I think if more than 4 of us can do it I'll plan on hosting. If not, someone else can host at a later date.
Thanks, all! I'm hoping this works out!
FretFree 09-13-2006, 11:11 PM Hello, all!
I am officially cancelling 9/16 as a possibility.
I hope someone else will be willing to step up and offer to host for the area in the near future.
MysticBoo 09-15-2006, 03:50 PM Heh... funny coincidence that you had offered 9/16 as the GTG date... I wasn't going to be able to visit my family this weekend in Elk Grove anyway, thus ruling out a trip to Sac out for this weekend overall.
I'm glad to hear it will be rescheduled :D
I can't host a GTG unfortunately, because all I've got is an apartment. I'd be more than happy to get in on one, though!
FretFree 09-20-2006, 10:38 AM I'm glad that people are still interested.
Maybe someone else can offer up a new date? I had the opening since my family was out of town.
Anyone else intersted in hosting?
bassteban 09-20-2006, 11:07 AM I can't suggest a date or provide a location, but I'll gladly come & horde food. :D Put me down as interested.
Joel B 10-09-2006, 11:16 PM Hey Guys, I also am interested if the date is right. Keep me posted. Thanks:bassist:
FretFree 12-14-2006, 11:25 AM I'll do a holiday bump for this thread...
I'm still very interested in doing a GTG, but will not be able to host with the family home (small kids).
Anyone else up for hosting? Anyone want to throw out some dates?
DigthemLows 12-14-2006, 12:09 PM I could host, Im in downtown Sac-toe. I could probably only handle about 10 people though.......with equipment and all.
RobbieCanuck 12-14-2006, 02:26 PM I'd be interested in attending if a date works for everyone - I'm up by Arco Arena.
- Rob
I'm in schedule permitting, Sac isnt too far to go for me.
DigthemLows 12-15-2006, 12:46 PM Everyone want to wait for the new year, or try for sooner?
Riley R 12-15-2006, 02:18 PM I could possibly host sometime in the new year. I'm in Modesto.
Kurtmon 12-15-2006, 02:22 PM I am about 1 hr north of Sac, I would be in, if it comes together.:hyper:
bassman275 01-23-2007, 11:57 AM I am in Sac.(Land Park),I am in,sched. permiting.
FretFree 01-24-2007, 09:12 AM Good to see the responses flowing in...
Anyone up for hosting?
Foamy 01-24-2007, 09:17 AM In - Roseville area
bluetiejeeper 02-10-2007, 02:37 PM any news, still trying to find a venue? I just know theirs alot of us from the bay area.
Silas Martinez 02-23-2007, 12:23 PM I'm interested. Sacramento Foothills - I80 corridor.
A few of us bassists (I know at least 2 of us are TBers) are putting on a Solo Bass Concert on March 20 in Modesto at Tymeless Cuisine on 10th St. If enough of us show up it will be an impromptu Mini GTG :hyper: :bassist:
Zappstorius 03-05-2007, 04:07 PM Hey, I'm new to TB, but I would be interested in a NorCal GTG. I'm from the East Bay, but could travel a little to get to one. Please keep me informed if you get a date!
