things to bring |
after literally years of forgetting things when we go to gigs and studios, we thought we'd share a little list of some of the things that you might want to stick on a list on the front door that you can check before you come and see us!!!
one of the best things about now owning a studio is that all the things we usually forget are now here!!
if you DO forget anything, we've usually got a few spares here. we'll have to charge you for things like batteries and strings, but most other things we can loan you. if everyone forgets the same thing however........
