Is that what that was John ? Wondered why my arms itched so much.
 
For those who missed it..BagEnd's setup was the 4 x21 sub mentioned above. 2 2x18 cabs..2 1x15 low cabs..2 1x15 reg cab's..1 1x18 ELF..1 2x10..and 1 4x10..at least one each: F1-x..SF-2..F2-B. And they threw in a 1x12 for guitar  
With the exception of the 4x21 and 1x15 reg cabs it appeared all others were their powered cabinets..1000 watts each.
Yes..we should all have a similar rig in the living room for practice !
And of course alot of great instruments to oggle..think the Bird of Prey was also my fav..but that Cocobolo Excel was pretty cute.
I'm sorry I missed the Durty Nellies party, the gig I played instead drew tons of people..counted 14 (including the bartender), but we did get a few hours of practice in.
 
Thanks again to all for a great day
Gary

That was the infamous John Judge.
 
Bill, tgo

A special Thanks to Alembic, Bag End and to Mica, (who couragously answered all the multitude of questions), for hosting and putting together the event/ great experience. Thank You for providing the memorable day for me and my sons, (one of which managed to make it into a picture with the wonderful sounding, playing and looking Buckeye Burl S.C. Signature); the pizza, and sharing of build/ ownership and th eplaying of members basses along with listening to jams. It was great also to be back at the Bag End shop: since my last visit was in Palatine in the mid-seventies, where I heard my 1st Alembic!!! Note: Love those Low Bass powered single 15\s!! Thanks for the facility to be able to connect with other local, (as well as distant), Alembic owners/players... hope to keep in touch.

Wow! So many more of us wish we could have been there! (Okay, maybe a little bit jealous...)
 
I have been living vicariously through your thread postings and pics, but does anyone plan to put NAMES with the PICS? I can figure out Kevin, John Judge, Bill Panzer, Mica...but where and who are the other players (with club handles would be nice).

This one is me.

OO

Keavin and Me.
 

 
John

You've aged a bit since your profile pic was taken John ;-)
 
Seriously though, it looks like you guys had a fantastic time, I really do wish I could have been there. The Bag end set up sounds like it could trigger an earthquake. Just as well they're not based in San Fransisco.
I love the Laminated passes with your names on, perhaps Mica could offer them for all club members to buy ;-)

Hey John, would it be OK to upload a small version of one of Tracy's group pics?

Go for it.  Upload as many as you like!

Hey, hey, hey
 
A little too much credit there! You got some Southerners, Californians, at least one foreigner (Christian), and assorted sundry persons. Amazing the police didn't park outside Bag End and follow you all home! :-) Anybody wondering what happened to the hippies need look no further...they are us.
 
Well, 31 basses? I see what the bar is now for the New York New England group. If we get Danny and Adam to show up, we can beat that number...

and some weird European character standing in the middle  
 
Thank you, Roger, it was fun to return to BagEnd and have another small chat with Jim and Heather, and Henry rushing by towards his gig downtown tonite.
 
All these photos are amazing, keep them coming, folks, I won't have a chance to post pics until Thursday...
 
all the best to you,
your friend Christian

31 basses... Bill, Doc and Roger may have a something to say about that! LOL
