The Unsung Heroes

Postby Nick Bidmade » Thu Apr 28, 2016 5:20 pm

I thought it would be appropriate to post a recognition of the work and support the 'Band in a Box' guys (and gals?) provide to keep our meetings viable, enjoyable and stretching.
So, Derek and Keith in the North East, Donny in Scotland, (not forgetting the great video from Bob), Shaun in South London (and great creativity from Jon), and Uncle Roy in Bristol (apologies if someone else provides support to the Bristol meets) I'd like to acknowledge the time, your own money and ingenuity you share, usually without thanks, to allow us all to enjoy our meetings and play along to great backing tracks.
Thanks guys. Unsung heroes.

Hi Nick,
Thanks for the mention.
I actually really enjoy helping to put tracks together with my buddy Derek and I'm learning BIAB along the way.
I'll be back from New Zealand in a couple of weeks time and we'll get started again. Suggestions for tunes are always welcome!
Keith.

Well said Nick, never was a truer word spoken through a falser set of teeth.
