The East Bay Alembic contingent (Sonicus, Heironymous, StephenR, and your's truly) will be hosting our brother from across the pond, Jazzyvee,  on Monday night, August 28th.  If any other Alembicians will be in town, you are most welcome to join us!  Let me know and I'll get you the info.

Bill, tgo

Umm, on my calendar August 25 falls on a Friday this year... just saying....  ;)

Here in Asheville it's been the 25th for most of this afternoon and at least part of this morning.

My timing is a bit off. I'm passing through the Bay Area Monday on my way to Mexico on the Harley. Would have liked to meet you Vince.

I mis-typed, above.  It is Monday the 28th. (Fixed above)

In the immortal words of Mr. Simpson, "ddddooooooohhhhhhhh!"


Gary, it you can time it right, you could come to dinner with us.   Also, if you are passing through earlier in the day, you might be able to meet Jazzyvee on the way.  I believe he will be driving up 101 from Socal.   

Bill, tgo

Thanks for the update.  I'm kinda on a tight schedule at this time.  Ill be starting off Monday in Yreka, CA and need to be in Bakersfield by nightfall.  I need to be in Mexico Wednesday morning.  Too bad it's not Thursday in Mexico.  Riding in the desert, you have to time your day by the heat.

Who are those old guys???!!!    hehehehe

Had a great time hanging with Alembic brethren.  Of course the far more attractive group were the four lovely members of senior management behind the camera!    This morning I gave the Jazzyvees some hints on avoiding traffic and sent them on their way North to the Mothership. 

Bill, tgo

We had a great day being shown round by Bob and Mary and got to see some incredible instruments.
The sound of Alembic is medicine for the soul!

Oh nice! So great to see you all together!
The bass player's function, along with the drums, is to be the engine that drives the car... everything else is merely colours.
