We started very small:   20 strings,  30 fingers,   4 Alembics,   3 fanatic bass players,  13 speakers,   1 fine bottle of Alsace Gewurztraminer   and some strong Italian espresso?  Here are the pics form our first Belgian meeting of Alembic fans on the second of december, it won't take long for Paul TBO to write down some beautiful proza about the evening :-)  Enjoy !  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That must have been paradise! I hope you have good contacts with your neighbours.... With all those amps, there must have been a little earthquake. Very nice collection of basses, I still like that EeeveeeeHuuuu bass. It has a very 'female' touch....

Hi Paul TBO, hi guys,
seems that you had a lotta fun over there.
BTW what is going on with our meeting Paul?
 
Many greetings
Oliver Baumann

That looks like a good time for sure.  What a room full of gear!  The EVH is very nice.  I've not seen/heard one of those in person.  You even had one of those metronome things.
 
Sam

All basses loaded. Looks great, I hope you guys had a lot of fun together.
Sam, nobody has ever seen or heard him . He does have a EVH 5 string for sale. http://www.connectionbult.com/bass/bassmain.html
 
Manfred

A lot of wood going on there!!!!  Looks like you boys had way too much fun.  Congrats on your first meeting.  That would have been worht the price of a plane ticket.  When is the next one?
What do you say.  Do we need to have a New England Chapter meeting guys!?!?!?

Ahem ...
Once it was that 3 fierce riders of the low frequencies set to Hofstade ...huh ....no ....
 
For one or another reason that doesn't sound appropriate ...that Hofstade.
 
Well what can I say?
 
Spyder Ollie ...I'm sorry ...I forget about it. Arriving at Jan (Brother Jan the River one) 's place I recalled  ^&^&^*$-))>

*******WAY COOL*******

let's not forget the Moore Alembic Chapter (MAC), we now have 4 members 3 bass players and 1 guitar player, 5 Alembic's
 
Moore Okla. the Alembic capital of the world (percapita) also the Tornado capital of the world
 
David T (the loud one)

David,
 
Can I join? Can I, can I? I know I'm in Texas, but the last name is Moore. Come to think of it, maybe you're in my town?  
 
To the ABC: Way to go! Do it again and get the rest of the AE(uropean)C involved!
 
Mike

That's the plan Mike, that' s the plan.
Now it were only 3 players, playing Alembic + having a computer + internet + speaking/writing US lingo + with a mind open to other people and players + a kind of show-off style to be in this club (well ...a tiny bit ...no?? ...just a eeny-teeny-weeny bit???)
Anyway ...let it grow ...let it grow

How about a World Chapter meeting?  I would suggest Florida as a central location.  
 
Sam

Mike your always welcome in the Moore club and if your ever in Moore let me know we'll dig out some basses and set up a big amp and have some fun and take some pictures.
   
David T
there are some pictures in the showcase under Electrum

Paul TBO,
you know the classic WHO line: you are forgiven...
Don?t mind about this.
I hope that we will find a fitting date soon so that we all can meet again...
And as for the Frankfurt Music Fair:
who will come to there so that we can meet?
The Frankfurt Music Fair will be from Wednesday 31st of March 2004 to Saturday April 3rd 2004.
I think I will be there all the time; so let?s meet there!!
 
 
Oliver (Spyderman)

Well guys, what can I say? Bass nirvana!The EVH is v cool, but Bonnie and Marilyn (I take it Jan settled on Marilyn then?).....wow. Looks like you had a fun time! Just one thing; how on earth am I supposed to decide on whether to have walnut or maple facings after seeing those 2 incredible basses together? Just when I thought I had it sorted....!  
 
All the best
Shaun
