Hi Everyone in the forum,
I have had some problems trying to get into this forum thanks to David Henderson I have been able to log in. Thanks again Dave
Well let me introduce myself I have lived in Chelmsford for many years and I was introduced to the Bassment after I started my nursing Diploma in the year 2000. My life changed for for ever when I listened to Guthrie¨s playing. I thought I was in a dream but I wasn´t. I was in the Bassment. I went every Thursday night and I always sat at the front row on the little wobbly round tables with one beer in one hand waiting for the Fellowship to appear on the stage. I always or most of the time got the front table because I was there @ 8:00 pm on the dot. I am not sure what made me change the decition to go and live in Spain. I really miss those Thusrsday nights with the Fellowship and all the members are incredible. What else can I say. I have had great conversations with most of them mostly about gear, sound and so forth. As a novice musician I admire Guthrie´s musical abilities because he is an example to so many of us. I was a bit disappointed when he came on tour to Salamanca my Country City with the Asia group and could not stay. I understand they have protocols to follow but it would have been great to invite Guthrie for a beer, show him the beutifull city we have and offer my my house to stay there the night. I hope Guthrie that if you ever read this lines and you ever go to my beautiful City full of Pubs you are very welcome to stay in my House. Just send me a message to respectinthehouse[at]hotmail[dot]com.
Well I am now glad I can participate on this forum. I am looking foward to give my feedback.
By the way I have been playing the guitar for a about 5 years on and off check my first ever song which I finished the other day. It is called Reflections. I hope you like it. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. The link to this page is bellow. Just type Meliton on the search engine of soundclick. _________________ www.soundclick.com my nickname Meliton |

Hi, Oscar
I think we met one night outside the Bassment.
I've made the email address a bit less passable for spam engines. Email links on forums is a bad idea
hope you don't mind the intrusion _________________ Fabulous powers were revealed to me the day I held my magic Suhr(d) aloft and said "by the power of great scale!"
I have the power! |

Hi Oscar,
Frankus is right. You shouldn't insert your e-mail address in forums. You could be exposed to spasms and other nasty undesirable internet threats.
Your brother. _________________ Javi |

Hi Frankus,
Thanks a lot to do that I don´t mind. Yes I thought the same myself after I included the E-mail but it was too late.
I am sure I know you. I must know you, do you remember what were we talking about? the thing is your name is very familiar to me, and I must have talked to you or seen you a million times there. I know a lot of people that go to the Bassment every Thursday. I would love to go there again.
if you have the chance Francus you could say that I have not forgotten them. I miss my bassment on Thursdays so much. However if I go I want to make sure that Guthrie is there, otherways my journey would have been wasted hehe. Is there a formula to know when Guthrie is going to turn in the Bassment? I always had the experience that there is not formula because he is such a busy guy, however, When I go for a visit you Frankus could let me know. I know there is a section on this forum where a guy ask about doing a timetable or something because he lives so far away that he does not want to waste his time.
Anyway nice to write to someone Who I met on the Bassment.
Regards to Everyone
