Sure, that's part of it and the very public bit that gets all the pr after, but plenty of people come along for the banter, practice time and to learn from others without setting foot in the main room. There's so much else going on with no pressure to perform if you don't want to.
At Sasquatch, it's particularly fun to hang out in the booth with @Sasquatch_Bob and listen to his dry Yorkshire-isms...especially when he's taking the piss out of @Bridgehouse getting flustered

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youI really hope you don't let things like that put you off in any way though.
When I saw there was the event happening I didn't even click it because I knew that unfortunately I'd have absolutely no chance of attending (new baby etc.) but now I've read a bit out of curiosity it sounds amazing and I really really hope that one day in the future I'll be able to make it to one of these and if I do make it I'll be very grateful to the people who help organise the event just like I admire those people now despite being unable to attend.
We don't currently have a logistics thread, so I'll summarise what *I* think the plan should be and you can tell me I'm wrong from there. This is mostly relevant to hotel dwellers
Saturday morning:
Hotel dwellers call at the hotel to drop bags off / check in if rooms are ready
12ish ...hotel dwellers drive/ car share to Sasquatch with all guitar/ jam related gear, then dump cars in car park / nearby roads.
Evening: Tame minibus driver(s) and anyone who's not drinking that wants to, ferries us and just the guitars/ kit we need for the gig up to the club. It's actually walkable but takes around half an hour without lugging kit but that's an option for some.
End of gig: Minibuses drop hotel dwellers at hotel / in town if more "culture" is required, and kit + security / spoon team back at the studio where we will watch all the gear all night and definitely not just play everything.
Sunday morning: hotel dwellers check out, minibus brings you all back to studio (which will now smell of a mixture of bloke and a nervous @Bridgehouse ) with your bags, so you can pack up and leave from there once Sunday is done.
Does that make sense? Have I made any glaring omissions?

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youJust wondering if there's a window for shower/chill out hour. Don't want to sound like a wuss but could be nice to have a break.
I'm sure @Sasquatch_Bob will give you his face flannel to give your coconuts a quick wipe!
Ok...serious answer...you're quite right, I had missed that. It's two more minibus trips, which will obviously impact costs. Unless you / somebody wants to stay sober during the day jam and ferry folk back to the hotel?

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youIf I've said the wrong thing to anyone I apologise, was only in a friendly jest or plain unintentional, but I'm not feeling good vibes at the minute?
