Re: Eggfeast 5
*Muses*
It seems myself and Steve now have a similar dilemma,a large hall accommodates sufficient people for a large Fest,but our equipment was simply not designed to fill a large hall...... Scale it down,like i did for Withamfest 2,the accoustics are far better,of course,but it also limits the ammount of attendees,thus making it more 'elitist'. I suspect that Eggfest and Withamfest will continue for many years to come It's bloody hard work though, i don't deny (You've had it easy Steve,try a 2-dayer,lol ) but when the hard work is over i'm grinning like a Cheshire cat!!! Please help me and Steve help you,we need your feedback..................... Cheers Kindest Regards Martin |

Re: Eggfeast 5
I'm up for Eggfest5 -any date's fine with me.
Although the acoustics in the big hall weren't spectacular, I still really liked it as a venue as there's space to move, the it's easy to get to and park at, and I didn't hear anything bad at all anyway. We all know how to tweak a system in our own room to get it singing to the ultimate degree -but we're never going to be able to do that at a general event, whatever the room is, so personally I don't think it's worth worrying about too much. You can still get a good enough idea of what it does. Besides, one of my lasting memories of EF4 was listening to a very fine pair of ML TQWTs, and then feeling the top of my head lift off when James fired up his Quasars on the other side of the hall with a decided lack of advance warning. Wouldn't have had quite the same effect in a smaller space.

Re: Eggfeast 5
I rather like Eggborough for the ease of access, space, food and proximity to my sister's house - mostly selfish reasons I suppose . I can put up with the shortcomings partly because after the last four I know what to expect and can make allowances . The warm ( summer ) ones have been better than the cold ones, bear that in mind .
Having said all that, I'm not sure how busy my calendar is getting for June so will have to take stock before saying 'yes' . Mark |

Re: Eggfeast 5
I must admit I do like Eggborough.
It is a known quantity and we know what to expect from the venue in terms of sound quality. Anyway these meets are a chance to have a good natter and see what projects people have been up to since the last one. The social aspect is what I go for and the atmosphere provided by the huge station as you drive under the HV cables has become all part of the experience. You can't get a better mains supply either. Steve
