Very little response to this post so I'll start the ball rolling...

1. Why not open the field up a little. Why not invite some of the UK pro's
such as Analogue Solutions or Analogue Systems? Or even Uncle Bob?

2. A 'bring and buy' sounds good. I have loads of old 'crap' that I need to
pass on.

3. Why not have some kind of a 'sequencer shoot-out'? I'm up for it. ?:)

4. Instead of just 'talks', why not encourage some kind of afternoon
performance? (Let's save the evening for the meal/pub). We all make tunes
with this stuff so why not let a few people showcase their work?

Hope this helps.

Cheers
    David
