Alan, Musicground are likely to have one, but it won't be cheap if they do!

Hello everyone. I live in Oldham, Greater Manchester.

Hi Mark, Hmmn, Oldham is quite central ( if we have any Scottish forumites that is).

Deepest Staffordshire and Southampton.

It's about time the Brits had a Ric bash.

Teignmouth's nice this time of year......
Seriously though, is this serious....shall we try to organise it? How many would be interested & how far would you travel? London & Birmingham are about the same to me (Birm is a little closer), but I still think that London might be a little far to travel for some. There are probably not many of us, so we would have to make it as accesible as possible to all.

A pub sounds like a great idea...
'Rickenbacker'...what a name! After all these years, it still thrills me.

I'll be in Kent for the first couple of weeks in July. Somewhere central and hopefully warm and dry!

I'm based near Grantham, Lincs, also in North Norfolk, work in London. If there is enough interest, happy to offer a marquee in the garden on a sunny lincolnshire day, or possibly the village hall, couple of amps, small PA if anyone wants to play seriously - might even be able to source a drummer to humour us! and we have a decent pub and an excellent local brewery that does a brilliant drop. But London would be equally good/convenient to me.

We've talked about a confluence often enough - let's do it! Prefereable when Wints is in the country....
enough, already.
