Hey, Jimmy.  Looking forward to the late show tomorrow night at Yoshi's.   It's such a nice intimate venue.  Harry, Wolf and I will be sitting together.  There will be at least one Alembic shirt on display.   Please stop by if you can swing it.  It's always a blast to meet Alembic brethren in the flesh.

Bill, tgo

Great!  I'll try to find you guys either before the 2nd set or afterwards out near the bar.  They shoo people out of this club in a real big hurry - maybe don't want to pay the staff any overtime...  Seeya later.  Thanks for supporting the team!

I wish my band practice was cancelled but we're recording in two weeks, so I have to go
DARN !!! I'll be there in spirit. DARN DARN DARN !!!!!!
Mike

C'mon Mike, have a good attitude about your band practice!  And I hope the upcoming recording experience is really fun. 

We'll run into each other another time. 

Jimmy J

Thanks Jimmy J ! You made my night. The guys offered to play tomorrow instead and I said no because I'm excited to play. Break a leg and I look forward to running into you another day, too. Thanks again Jimmy ! - Mike

Bill (tgo), Wolf and Hieronymous, it was great to meet you guys and chat for a minute last night.  Thanks for coming out to support the team!  Nice talking shop with people who know MORE about Alembic than I do because that's unusual.  Most of the time I'm the one describing the company and how the bass works to whoever asks.  Everybody here knows what I mean.

Thanks again for coming to the gig.  Keep making music and I hope to see you all again somewhere down the line. 

Jimmy J

Hoping someone got a picture of that meetup. 

Jimmy , It was great to meet you as well . I had a great time and enjoyed the music as well as really paying attention with my ears pointed and listening    !  Everyone was stellar and of course you and your bass sound were splendid more so in all regards .   I look forward to next time as well .

David  , photos will  follow soon

Yes David, same message to you - sorry I didn't include you in the list.  That's the most Alembic folks I've hung out with since the last time I visited the factory!  Good fun.

Last night was a lot of fun! I hadn't had a chance to investigate any of the music before the show, usually I prefer to check out music before I hear it live, but last night it didn't matter! Great songs, great playing, great sounds.



The after-show meet-up was fun too! I even got a CD signed by Mr. Steve Gadd himself! He was very kind, which doesn't always happen with living legends. And of course JimmyJ was a pleasure to meet and talk to for a little bit!



We also got to see Will! Did anyone notice that Jerry Garcia's daughter Trixie was there too?

I LOVE that photo !! Looks like my kind of people

Thanks for posting the photos Harry (AKA Heironymous)  
Your photos serve the true jubilant nature of the occasion better then the ones taken from my camera in that I am actually smiling  


Wolf AKA Sonicus

Last night was a BLAST!  INCREDIBLE band!  They obviously really enjoyed playing together.  Great venue, great seats, even great sushi dinner before the show!  And the cherry on top was Harry, Wolf and I getting to not only meet, but actually hang out for a while, mostly talking Alembics, with Jimmy.   By the way, your bass is a real beauty in person, Jimmy.  Thanks for the outstanding show.

Bill, tgo

Great picture Harry; thanks!!

Ok, Sonicus = Wolf = David?  Excuse my confusion, I've never been good with names.   
Thanks again for making the scene, for the kind reviews, and for posting the pics. It is indeed a blast to play with these guys.
