Bungay Bash

Great to know that the Bungay Bash is going ahead on June 4th 2011 and hopefully we'll put on an event every year at the same sort of time, later spring early Summer. Suffolk and Norfolk are such lovely places that time of year, so hopefully we can attract fans from outside the area as well as within to come to the event.

The event is being held in conjunction with a beer festival, so should be a lot of fun. We're testing the waters with this event, hence it being a mainly AD line up of local instrumental music artists. If things go well then well make it an annual event and widen the net as far as acts are concerned. However, I'm thinking that this should be an annual charity event, simply because with the best will in the world, we can't make enough on the tickets to pay for acts to come unless we make the ticket prices high, which we know from experience keeps people away. So, and I'm thinking out loud here it has to be said, if we make it an "expenses only" event and ensure artists are wined, dined and accommodated and give the profit to a Charity, then it makes it easier for future events. It's only an idea, but one that I'm giving serious thought to!

As to performing, I'm looking forward to sorting out a set of new space music for the event.  I'll be performing solo in the afternoon and with Code Indigo in the evening. Rock on!!
