Yeah, I agree that my pics don't do justice to that Flying V and I'm hoping Mica has some of her top notch build photos to share. It was a real show-stopper. But so were some of the other one-of-a-kind instruments.
 
Here's my photo album on facebook that is accessible to the general public. Of course, I welcome you all to friend me, if you're so inclined.

Sam,
many thanks for the photos.
They are great.....
Oliver (Spyderman)

great photos guys. I'm jealous as hell but I reckon it'll be a few years before i get back to the states again.

p.s. I also think that flying V is gorgeous.

Nice!  Thanks for sharing.

Same here Jacko I'd love to go there again in the future. Maybe a few of us from this side of the pond can co-ordinate a trip out there together in a few years time.  
 
Jazzyvee

Yeah, would love to join the european chapter
visiting the mothership....
Oliver (Spyderman)

Really sorry that gigging kept me away this time. I'm going to obnoxiously insist that Mica make good on her threat to do a Mothership gathering later this year!

Thanks for the compliments, Oliver. If you, Graeme and Jazzyvee could coordinate coming over to this side of the pond for next year that would really be fantastic.
 
Or...I know the time differential might be weird, but how about a Skype hookup so we could walk around with a laptop or iPad and you could see and hear what's going on in real time? Now THAT would be way cool....

Great pics Sam; thanks!  One note, where you mentioned the age of #10, I think you meant 40 rather than 20.

I added a couple of recordings from my phone on Sound Cloud. You can get a little glimpse of the day here:

Working on videos to share this year too!

Thank you for the aural experience Mica!!!!
I think that there needs to be a designated sound/video person during the jam sessions to aid in the less fortunate blokes like me that can't get to gatherings to actually hear what's happening!!
Once again...Thank you!!!!
Chalie

Mica,
Thanks for the soundcloud link ! I had a completely superb time . I am so very grateful to have had this opportunity to participate in this event . It was awesome to see the familiar faces again and also to meet a few new faces in person .  I left looking forward towards next time !
