Eagerly awaiting confirmation.
 
If Bag End hosts, does that mean we can just bring our basses and amp heads - they will provide speakers? :-`

Oh man...I'll bring my Further!  Please keep us posted Mica.  That is so awesome of you!  
 
Rog

If it's the 30th, I should be able to make it.  
 
Jonatha

Mica...will you bring the Further Stage Model?   I'd love to try that sucka out!  
 
That guitar was exactly what I had in mind when we were talking about it on the phone a few months ago.

Looks like we're a go for the 30th @Bag End. Thinking about 11-5 for the time.  
 
I'll have several instruments with me, but I'm not sure what the roster is yet.

Very good possibility I can make it. If I fly in (probably wil do) I won't be bringing any of my axes. Just don't trust those airline people ya'know.  
If I drive up (very doubtful close to 900 miles)I'll have the Apha Omega in hand.
 
OO

YES, YES, YES!!!
 
It's going to be a LONG wait until May 30!
 
If we can put in requests, I'd LOVE to get a chance to play a 5 or 6 string Series II with ebony neck lam!
 
I'll be bringing my two Rogues and can bring anything else that anybody would like to try (check my profile for my current roster).

Please count me as there!
Ooh, Ooh! new goodies from the mothership!  
Will we be able to jam if we choose to? If so, I'll bring my 2 Epics and my Distillate. (I could also bring my '72 Guild Starfire if anyone cares to see her.)
Mike

I hope this turns out like the gatherings that Will has hosted in the Bay Area. Lots of folks show up with their various Alembic basses and guitars, there's talking and playing and jamming. We've got some snacks to sustain us through the fun. My dad will likely be there too, and he brings a small stash of repair parts, so he's able to do some onsite servicing if there's anything with an ailment.  
 
These have been tons of fun! As the date gets closer, I'll setup a mailing list for the attendees. If you're planning on coming, just send me a message with Chicago Gathering in the subject line and I'll add you to the list.

I'm making the airline reservations so I will be there on the 30th. Won't be bringing any instruments with me due to flying.  
 
Keith

Old#12 will be there I live just around the corner!

YES!
I will bring my Distillate and most likely my bastard fretless (see half way down, 3 pics on this thread: http://club.alembicguitars.net/Images/393/57930.html?1229429742ttp)as it seems some may arrive without instruments.
 
What about amplification?  
Anyone know a drummer? :-o

Old #12 making an appearance?  Boy, I sure would like to be there.  If there's anyway I can swing it ...    
 
Bill, tgo

I'm in...
