evil c Posted August 10, 2023 Author Posted August 10, 2023 And obviously locals, I've personally contacted virtually every person on the guestlist so far to get the numbers we currently have.
surprisetech Posted August 10, 2023 Posted August 10, 2023 This event is always a lot of fun and the tucker is great. Hope we can rustle up the numbers. Thanks Clive for taking up the task yet again. 1

Will sadly miss out this year, Clive. Great to see you putting it together again - always a highlight of our visits! Will definitely be back next year! 1
tubularbells Posted August 10, 2023 Posted August 10, 2023 I can eat for two (or possibly 3 if I skip lunch) if that helps bring the numbers up so possibly put me down as 3 ....yeah the sacrifices I make for you lot 1 1 2
POV Posted August 10, 2023 Posted August 10, 2023 I’m really keen @evil c and if I’m in Melbourne will certainly attend but I can’t commit yet unfortunately and don’t want to stuff you about. I won’t know for sure for another week or 2.

joz Posted August 10, 2023 Posted August 10, 2023 I may actually have to pull out of this one, we’ll see. 2

Gee Emm Posted August 11, 2023 Posted August 11, 2023 I'll be there. Someone has to have a sun tan at that time of year. Looking forward to a great catch up withe old and new. For those sitting on the fence; this would be an event not to be missed! Seek forgiveness, not permission. Good job @evil c ! 3

Bass13 Posted August 11, 2023 Posted August 11, 2023 @scuzzii I had no idea how I got home from that one(I did but I didn't), what a night....to say most of us where a little tipsy is watered down. 2 2

Come on people, most of us spent more buying a LP or CD, getting a slab of half decent beer, or possibly a pack of smokes, how does any of that compare to a $55 feast with fellow music enthusiast (Priceless) , with as much beverages that you can buy or get shouted...., yes falling asleep is allowed, but not recommend..
