Hey all,

I'll be vacationing in London in mid-February. I was wondering if there are any CBG-related events/concerts/meet-ups scheduled? I'd love to participate, seeing as not even a Christmas trip stopped me from planning out future builds and scouring hardware stores...

Whereabouts will you be?...let us know and I'm sure we'll be able to hook you up with some contacts and music events.
I'll be in the greater London area, staying in a flat in Wimbledon...

Count me in if possible as I don't live far from Cambridge myself.
Since I'll be there for a good while, Cambridge is an option!

If you are doing the tourist thing and visit Cambridge, let me know, if there is no Gig on, maybe we could meet up for a Coffee or a pint or something ?
Mid-February until late February!
If we arrange a meet-up, Brickdust. I may demand a performance of "I Don't Have the Blues"!  :-)

Brickdust said:
When do you get here and when do you leave?
Hi Scotty. I am on the outskirts of north west London (nearish to Heathrow and Windsor). If you are in that direction let me know. Hope you have a great time here.
That would be a real gas, Brickdust! I've been looking for more things to do since my plans to see a Sex Pistols tribute band were kiboshed due to time constraints...

Brickdust said:
I'm tying to organize a cbg night, in a local club, and if it comes off you, and anybody else who wants to, can come and play. Will confirm this week. Take care mate

Brickdust,

I believe the 27th is a Sunday...? At any rate, from the morning of Friday the 25th to the morning of the 27th, I will be in Liverpool. And on the 28th, I will be flying back to the States.

Brickdust said:

Scott - will you still be around on Saturday 27th Feb ?
Yes please! Let's set something up, and open it to the other fellows on this thread... We had a Chicago-area pub meet-up of CBG builders in November, and it was a really good time. It's nice to share advice and discuss builds in person!

Brickdust said:
Scott - I can't get anything booked for the  weekends that you're here. But if you're up for it - will definately meet up for a beer and a chinwag.

You're in Liverpool 26 & 27th? I'm exhibiting at the Birmingham Guitar Show on those days...that's a couple of hours away from L'pool.  Hope you manage to get something arranged over here in the UK.

Many thanks for the invite, John, but I won't be able to make it to Birmingham...I have a quite a lot to see in Liverpool. Some of the destinations, I've wanted to visit for almost 20 years. (You can probably guess why I'll be visiting that particular city...!)
