Chaps,
I was just enjoying some "tunes" whilst ironing this morning, and thought it would be nice to invite a few fellow Londoners over for an evening of beer/wine/snacks and some good music.
My initial idea was to suggest an evening going through a bunch of Floyd stuff (or similar), though I'm certainly open for suggestions.
(new part to post)
As we have some interest, I'm going to make a few suggestions for the evening:
- Proposed date is Friday the 29th of Oct, start time 7pm, to wrap up at 11pm (don't want to upset the neighbours too much)
- No hardware changes are planned for the evening. This will be just about listening to some good music and having a few beers with like minded people. Lets leave the hardware fun for a bakeoff.
- I'm going to suggest that we alternate around on music choices, i.e each person picking a couple of tracks, before moving to the next person. I don't care about what you chose, that's upto you, but I'd prefer no requests for "Oh superman" or rap.
- I'm going to need to limit the attendees to a max of 7. I live in 2 bedroomed flat in London, so it's not huge. I think I can set up 2 rows of 4 seats fairly comfortably.
- I'll supply some drinks/snacks, but if you want to bring some along, feel free
- My system is rather "flat", ie. Naim CD5i, 82/hicap, 200, Linn Kabers, REL Q100 sub, electronics on Mana. If you really hate Naim sounds, please just don't bother popping along. I'm hoping to have a nice evening, not trying to explain that my personal preference is for a more boppy kind of sound as against better tonal colours. I'm fully aware of my system limitations and am happy with the compromises I've made.
- Can proposed attendees please PM me to confirm their attendance. I'll reply back with my address/contact details for the evening

So here's a bump. I'd like to attend but I don't drink and would be boring company. I like Pink Floyd though.
