joz Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Ok it's on again, Though it nearly wasn't. For the same reason @Marc is no longer having them. But somewhat reluctantly I have to admit the thought of not catching up with the great guys I have met throughout the years has it happening again. Why let one bad apple? It starts anytime from about 1pm I suppose till god only knows when. Byo a share plate and drinks, anyone who has been before knows that with this day may be like. Lots of food, drinks, laughs and even some music. Some will arrive early others directly from after the show finishes and which is a 5 minute Uber ride from main event at the Mecure. ok heads up here, I understand that some will be at the show but I'm sure we'll be kicking on a bit later than that. @djb @Mike13 @candyflip @agelessgoodguy @Snoopy8 @Assisi @Yamaha_man @buddyev @The Fez @andyr @Red MacKay @Sierra @frednork @cazzesman @gat474 @Yngvi Oh just because your names not on the list just message me for details. I haven't added all the usual suspects either so don't feel left out, I know you guys will turn up if you can. 9 1
Guest Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Good on 'ya Joz. I might get the courage up to run another GTG one day. Just a reminder for anyone not aware that for the first time, this year's show is open until 8PM on Friday night. If you're kicking on I might drop past post-show mate. 2
betty boop Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 will be sure to pop by at some stage Joz, very generous of you and good on you for doing 1
joz Posted October 11, 2019 Author Posted October 11, 2019 Well you know these guys, I'm sure we'll be kicking on quite late. Look forward to catching up again @Marc 1
Martykt Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Fantastic to see you keeping the flame alive @joz. Hopefully I'll get mine happening soon as promised. My phono stage has arrived though my system is letting letting the team down so waiting for new tubes to arrive.... Yes @Marc, it has been too long.... Yes a bit of courage, a bit of planning beforehand to keep valuables safe and the Closed Listening Room can become Open once again....
Kensell21 Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Great news Joz. It makes the drive over from SA just that bit more worthwhile.. looking forward to catching up with other members again.. P.S. I actually don’t like apples [emoji519] . [emoji4] 4
Ahh- Schnoo Schnoo Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Did someone steal stuff at a GTG? 1
Luc Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Will be an early arrival and will bring something to drink and possibly a plate to share with me and the host and don't mind me if I've got a few screwdrivers and a shoulder bag and seem to be overly interested in the rack contents...I don't get to the big smoke often and like to look closely at gear. If I disappear for an hour or so it's only so I can come back for more Duck salami might be a tall order this year but...I'll see what I can scrounge up. First person to play DSOTM...now that's always a good betting game at a GTG, usually closely followed by a DS track. Fight the urge people! Don't give in to it, drink a XXIPA or better...drink two and remain comfortably numb for the night and play something new! 1 1
gillmaverick Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Well Work got in the way of Saturday Night Dinner this year but I am not gonna miss this Joz , I will be there at the show early Friday morning and will come over sometime after lunch.

Ittaku Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Thanks for holding this GTG Joz; very generous of you. I'd love to come along this time, just not sure what time but I assume it doesn't really matter with this event. 1
Nigel Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 G'day Joz, almost tempting to make the trip just for your gtg. Almost... seems like you may have 100-150 people turning up to the house....that's a lot of coffee!! Hope you have a great weekend. cheers 1 1

blybo Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Pretty sure the better half is working late so I might have to pass.... again. Why do the stairs never align? As it is we are both working Saturday so I'll only be making the Sunday of the show and Saturday nights dinner
Kaynin Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Count me in Joz, I'll be there after the show. 2
