Any pref for which Sunday and which ones are out.

I have No Preferences for a particular Day. It would be nice to have a big turnout though and take advantage of these rare events.

Leave it to the end of September, kids back at school and a bit of thumb twiddling will get a bit of motivation.

You hope!
I said it shouldn't be me doing it, I was told I was wrong, but so far I am proved to be right.

The odd one out in a threesome is probably lonelier.

636 Views and not one new attendee declaring themselves.
I jumped at the chance to attend, all the musical experience to be enjoyed from a nice short run down a motorway " Bingo".
I am sure that if in the pursuit of knowledge and experience, if a personal position can be put forward where " Principles are put above Personalities"
then all the valuable moments of a day like the Southern Phono Stage Bake Off can be very rewarding, as well as a local event for many.
Two extra hours in bed on a Sunday must be a start of the rewards, as well as a understanding of what is appealing to ones ears in relation to replaying the black stuff, WOW! , that must be money well spent.

John, it would be nice to support some more southerly get-togethers, (though being in the SW I would still likely have a bit of a trip) but I wont consider going to this event because of my principles;
BTW, picking up on your knowledge and experience comment, I agree that is what it should be about and that is why I don't like the term 'bake-off'; the wins should be in expanding our knowledge and experience rather than trying to rate equipment.
- I have no desire to socialise with a man who has declared me an 'eeediot' for simply expressing an opinion
- I think this event is more about sweetcheek's obsessive agenda around Firebottle/Arkless and selling NVA kit

Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Read the thread and the other one, I was challenged to do it when I said I shouldn't because of people like you. Read the label that was applied to this excuse. All you do is prove me right.

Shall I give up on this. Though there may be one coming up in Brighton.
#15 Re: Southern Phono Stage Bake-Off
The recent phono comparisons in Huddersfield, reading the post event comments have proved to be a very enjoyable and entertaining day for the attendees. If these reports are not enough to encourage a get together down south, then I,ll be buggered.
