A by-product of being shy I guess
Next event i'll try and talk to people, i'll try
I'll have to get a "I'm Slick2097 and i'm shy PLEASE TALK TO ME" t-shirt made up or something

Dude, at my first BIT (Gossips London / BIT3) I spoke to..
1. The person i went with.
2. Chris & Kenz
3. A german guy from RSI
4. David Whittaker
5. A couple of guys from PPOT
THATS IT.
At Brighton I spoke with Andreas (Performer), madfiddler, Pex (a little but not as much as id like), Chris n Kenz, Subzero, Jeff (Octave Sounds), Rob Hubbard (for all of 14 seconds since my mind went blank, plus I had alex's camera in my snout), Dr Future, Vosla, Martin Galway, Mr Dillgrass and Makke.
As with everything, you meet, you get to know people over the forums, then get to meet them in real life.
The RV/BIT Manchester meet was busiest for me as I met and spoke to almost everyone !! Merman, Waz, Bog, Chris, Kenz, Natz, Tomsk, Ben, madfiddler, Markie, rocky, mayhem, chappers, peek poke lee, theo, jesper, etc etc etc ....
My only hope is that there continues to be more events of this type, im loving every minute of it ! Keep your eyes on sidstock.co.uk now ... itll be a couple of years away, but itll be one HELL of a party when it arrives !
