Yes - missed you Wolf! I got there around 5:30, thought I would catch the last half-hour or so - ended up hanging out until almost 9!

At one point this happened:




Looking forward to more pics!

Looks like you had a nice day... Good to see an Orion and Alembicized Starfire in the mix!

It is great to see all of those " Alembic Smiles ! "

THAT'S what I'm talkin' about!!  Looks like everybody had a great time.  Can't wait to see more pics.

Nice lineup!

Here's a few more:

Four Alembics from Alembic!


Our gracious hosts, Will & Mica:


Edwin and his awesome Starfire:


Me playing Nate's Series II strung with flats while the pit crew (Dave, Edwin & Nate) troubleshoots Dave's amp - Dave was gracious enough to bring his full rig, otherwise there might not have been bass amplification!

Had a nice time yesterday. Was good to see everyone again to celebrate all things Alembic and Mica's birthday, too. As always some very sweet instruments to check out. Wish I had had time to hang out longer and enjoy more of the festivities.

Thanks for posting the pics Harry!

Mica,
Happy  Birthday ! I am sorry that I could not make it to  the " Gathering " this year .

trying to post my pics but for some reason the preview shows nothing but text

Venerable Alembics No. 10 and No. 11, with gratitude to Bay & Bill.

A wonderful time was had by all, and many were missed but with us in spirit.

Will, our gracious host, drummer extraordinaire, FOH chief engineer and best roadie ever, shown here along with a few of his backup bass players... and oh yeah, a few of them six string guys too...

I'm sorry that I missed this on Saturday. Looks like it was a blast for all that attended.
I can't help but think that that corner of the stage has some bad bass juju or something...that's where my rig was setup last time when it failed.

Those kindred pretzels are making me thirsty 
Thanks for the pics!

Nate & Edwin get down to business, accompanied by Nate's awesome, fantastic sounding, thunderous and gorgeous basses...
