Would there be any interest in a new Shadows / Guitar Club very near to Newbury, Berkshire?

It would probably be on a Wednesday night in a hall close to the A34 with plenty of free parking.

It would be backing tracks initially due to the difficulty arranging a backline.

The hall is available but a club could only go ahead if enough players are interested.

I think it would depend who runs it, and how it's run....... A new club sounds good on the face of it.......

Newbury would definitely get my vote....as I live in Thatcham!! Yes...Newbury...go for it!!!! Wednesday is my choral rehearsal night......but I would still be able to manage quite a few Wednesdays during the course of a year. Switch it to Tuesday or Thursday & I'd be at every meeting!!! Good luck with the project Peter as there is simply nothing at all in this area. It's a long way to go the nearest club....in fact, I'm not really sure which is the closest one. Wherever it is...it's not really close at all!!!!

Best wishes,

Rob

Cheers Rob,

It's all on if we can get enough bodies.

We have all the gear for the backing tracks and a choice of 2 AC30s.

Hi Peter,

Wishing you all the best for the new Club. Look forward to attending.

Hi There!

I would be keen to attend, I am a keen bass player and can play most Shads tunes from the Jet era and I live in Basingstoke.

Thanks to all those who have expressed an interest.

The hall is available with a stage if we want to use it plus kitchen facilities so it would be a shame to lose it.

Come on, don't be shy, players needed of all standard to get this new club going.

Pete.

Where exactly is the hall? Do you have a proposed starting date?

Bests...Rob

I am interested, where is the venue?

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your interest.

If we have enough players interested to start the club and make it viable, the venue is literally 2 minutes from the junction of the A34 with the A4.

Cheers,

Pete.
