I could swing my and pick you up and then hit the Gardner.
How far north or south on islington?
How far north or south on islington?
It's an option! Depends on rehearsals and stuff going on that day.
But i'm neither north or south. i'm RIGHT at Islington Station.
Mark,
Subway is a bit tough as this place is near the lake south of the lakeshore. Might be a bus running near there, but likely a cab. Sharing a ride is a better idea as it is a real long hike from Union station when carrying a bass or two.
The place is a little dumpy but the gear is suprisingly high end (mostly Ampeg 810 cabs with Eden, Mesa, Peavey, Hartke, etc. heads). Drums are ok and there is lots of Marshall and Fender guitar gear. PA systems are almost all excellent (there are 10 or 12 rooms). I play there most Monday nights with a bunch of my customers so I know the place well. Bring some beer to drink as it is allowed!
Anyways, I coach hockey and have a 3:30 practice... so I am out. I am definately in for the next one... and I will bring the beer!
Have fun!

For anyone wondering how to get there via TTC - there is a bus, the 72, which runs directly in front of Cherry Sound - I used to have a rehearsal space underneath the Docks entertainment complex, so I've ridden it many a time.

I'm bringing my digital video and camera. But we'll all have to discuss how to distribute the images. I'd prefer not to put stuff online, but if people want to do that we'll need to discuss who's ok with their image being up, and who's not.
I am going to try and make this... no promises as I will have to run it by the "Warden"!
If I can come, I'll bring my Roscoe, Pedulla and my RH450 for you guys to muck around with...
Gonna have to be one my best behaviour in order to receive a fulow!

You can put me down as a maybe... If I do show up, I'll probably just bring my Epi Explorer. Of course, if anyone's looking for a Bag End 2x10, I could always bring that too...

I'm still not sure if I'm going... I have a lot of work to do but I hope I can make it on time.

Unfortunately, no furlow provided to me. It's not what your thinking, I was VERY GOOD on the weekend, but alas it's Apple Day for the Beavers and I have to help my 7 year old sell apples at the nearest LCBO/ Beer Store, so unless we sell out early, I can't see myself making it.
I'll put on my best Herb Tarlek suit, maybe someone will feel sorry for me and buy us out!

Hi Folks!
I'm thinking of dropping by. I'll bring my Fender Lyte bass and possibly my Low Down Sound Fearful type cab (12/6).

I'll bring a powerbar or 2 just in case.
B.T.W. We're in room #4, unless they switch things around. I'll post something near the entrance to let people know where we are.

I don't drive so it's a bit difficult for me to schlep the cab/bass down on the TTC. But, I'm going to give it my best shot. The LDS has a great sound and I wouldn't mind hearing other people's opinions on it.
