Also a chance to meet some of the guys who build the custom shop guitars if I'm reading the promo on their web site.

I've only been playing since Oct. 1 (yeah, less than a month) so I probably wouldn't go to any GTGs, but maybe some day...

For me that was long ago. Unfortunately I'm still not that good.

Has the GTG been planned/ carried out already? I'd love to meet fellow bassists from Ontario.

No reason why a Toronto GTG wouldn't be as successful. They had bassists driving 3 hours to be there. New England FALL 2011 GTG - Save the Date! November 5, 2011

Then Burlington, Harlem (north of Kingston - look it up), Hamilton again, Ottawa, Saskatoon, Pincourt (outside of Montreal) and now San Diego.
Wish I was back in Southern Ontario!
