Looking forward to it!
Presumably there is food (as well as alcohol) available from the bar?
Yes indeed. I have sampled it twice these past few weeks and it's good grub.Quote:

Yes Ken. I will cover the photography duties for Nebo 6. Can i ask people who wish to take pictures that you ask anyone in shot for their permission to be included before taking the shot?! I don't want to be responsible for infringements of peoples civil liberties and some folks simply don't like to be photographed. Snapping the gear is not a problem, fill yer boots. :DQuote:

Marco.
After nursing the Mrs with her flu this week. I've tonight started with coughs and sniffles myself.
Christ I don't want to call in sick for NEBO but at the same time I don't want to take down half of AoS with the lergy either.
I'm taking some medicine, and heading to my bed and hoping for the best:(
Anyone got a surgical mask I can borrow for the NEBO?
I don't know if I should have posted on here but I was going to bring my eddies to nebo but I've had a burglary tonight and all of my hifi gear has been pinched its the 3rd burglary this year I'm devistated please feel free to delete this post if you guys think it's not appropriate
Thats terrible news Steven. Hope your insured, not that thats any consolation, but it will help in the coming months.. Really hope the cops catch the villians responsible. At least they will be able to get caught if they try to sell the Eddys, as there aint that many around ....Quote:

Thanks for your kind words boys changed insurance after the last burglary think I paid outright instead of monthly direct debits can't find the documents and can't remember who I got insured with any how gazjam I'm gonner borrow brians Santa mankini and come to nebo in that might be a bigger talking point than my speakers gutted only paid Alan half bat for the Firebottle and the smackheads have taken that as well been left with the power supply for the rp6 could always watch the light glow on that
Check your bank statements Steve . Really sorry to hear about this . The arseholes probably don't even know what they have nicked . Hope you get something sorted out as soon as possible mate . I'll bring the mankini down mate , I'm sure it will cheer you up a bit :uhho:
Shit Steve, really sorry mate, what a bummer.
Yeah, as said, get some pics up on the forums of your gear if you have them, we can all keep our eyes peeled.
I'm also on a few local buy/sell music gear Facebook groups and I'll put the word on them too.
Good to get the word out, Social Media/word of mouth is a good thing in cases like this.
Burly feckers mind to have half inched the Eddies.
Not may of them about so as has been said, watch them on classifieds.
I f##kin hate tea leaves, the feeling that some scumbag has been lurking round your gaff and precious kit is horrible.
It boils yer p##s and no mistake.
Aye too right.
Thats really bad shit!! I wish a camels fleas on the scumbags who nicked your hi-fi marra! I rarely get offered second hand hi-fi (I don't really buy and sell) but if I'm offered this (20 odd miles north of you) I'll deal with the twats in the appropriate manner :eyebrows:
Steven I am gutted for you. I am really sad about that and hope you manage to get you gear back.Are you ok? Situations like this can be devastating on the psyche. If there is anything I can do to help please get in touch. If you send the guys some pictures if you have them we can keep our eyes peeled and post appeals on social media. Do you have serial numbers?Quote:

I have pics of the Icon pre and would be happy to swear a statement to the effect of confirming the sale.Quote:

There's some strong competition there but I'm hoping they'll give a good account of themselves.Quote:

Although they're fighting in a different class the NVA Cubettes will be a plucky little bantam amongst some of the heavyweights too.
We are working on a plan to get a pair the Edingdale speakers to the meet. Watch this space.Quote:

While I'm not sure any of this equipment would make it's way into Cash Converters etc I'll try and keep an eye/ear out in the Teesside area in case it makes it's way down here
Know a lad who lives 100yds or so from you,who got burgled by the t... next door [would you believe he left his footprints in the snow!]He's away for the weekend ,but I'll ask him s.a.p ,if he saw any items being moved into his neighbours [can't hide something the size of your kit under his coat] Fingers crossed ,hope for some better news

Bloody hell, I wouldn't want to be him if he was the culprit. Vigilante justice audiophile style, we'd tie him to a chair and conduct a double blind cable comparison on him using only Diana Krall music.Quote:

Hey.. Leave Diana out of this. No problem torturing him though... Bassa!! Imo its one of the lowest crimes out stealing from a working man/woman.
Yep, can bring my Monarchy Audio SRM Pro power amp if you want to borrow it Steve.
