DFW get-together anyone??

What's the rule on bringing friends? No, I'm not bringing some bimbo. I have a buddy who plays bass. I've mentioned talkbass to him a couple times, but I don't think he's ever registered. He's got two or three Fenders and two Ibanez ATK's, an ampeg stack and a rack full of toys. I ask because I'll probably crash at his place when I'm down there, so I might be able to drag him over with me.


I don't know if this has been said, but to my knowledge there is no "rule" about who you can and cannot bring. Everyone is welcome! :)

I'm thinking we're going to need a group photo with the gigantic pile o' basses in the foreground...

I'm just wondering where we're going to get a camera with a lens wide enough to capture all of this!!! I've got a digital camera that I'm going to bring, but I don't think even all the BASSES would fit in one picture.

Maybe we should get a locked thread with just time and location info...we're getting a lot of the same question. Since this has more or less turned into a discussion we could unsticky this and sticky the location posting.

Well, we could do that, I suppose. I just editied the first post of the thread to reflect when, where, and what, so hopefully that will answer the questions of anyone with questions.

If anyone feels the need to start a new thread, please, go ahead. I've done enough posting for the day :D

I'm really startin' to get excited about this thing now. 30 bass players all gathered into one place with tons of gear.........I feel an earthshake comin'. :D


BTW.....Pacman definitely cannot make it, and NJL is still a maybe. I PM'd Sir Pawlie to see if he could make it and he hasn't gotten back to me yet. Hopefully we'll know soon whether or not our fearless leader will be in our presence :D

This sounds like a fun time. I'll have to see how things shape up on my end as the time approaches. I'd love to come up and bring a few of my basses.

Hey Greg,
Would love to meet you and try out some of your basses. I have been a cyberadmirer of your basses for a long time. I love the spalted twins and the figured walnut basses!!

Do what you can to attend. :)

I just sent an email to Bass Player magazine to see if they were interested in publishing any group shots from the get-together! I'll let you know what they say.

Just think....we could ALL be FAMOUS!! :hyper:

That'd be awesome. Maybe they'll be interested in sending a rep out to give us all free subscriptions too :D
