Hi Guys.  
 
I thought it time to 'throw this out on the table'.  
 
I've got six hours of rental time credit at the Island Music Guild hall left over from the last time we tried a Pac NW get together (cancelled due to power outage).
 
  So in an effort to use it, have some fun, swap licks, admire different Alembics, enjoy the camaraderie of fellow Alembicians and share in the passion of Alembic instruments in general, not to mention making some music, I'm making the call for a second chance Bainbridge Bass Rumble and calling for a show of hands of those who would be interested in participating.  
 
Date to be determined, but June is the basic time frame at this moment.  
 
Thoughts?  
 
Best Regards,
 
Kimberly  

My June calendar is already pretty insane with gigs so depending on that bit - I'd be interested again.  I can actually bring two Alembics this time! :-)

I can probably make it this time.  
 
No snow, no snow, no snow....

If it snows in Seattle in June I'm officially calling shenanigans on the climate.  Like all of it.

I'll be there with mittens and sunglasses...
thanks kimberly

June should be do-able.  Wide open right now, and if we schedule soon, I can block dates (ah, yes, well, my calendar is full that day).
 
After this winter, I'm idling my cars in the driveway and swapping out my hazardous waste CFs for incandescent (in the interest of speeding up global warming).
 
Power outage or no, it was a great time last time.
 
Thanks Kimberly.

Hi Guys.  
 
Sounding good.  
 
How's about we look at these days/dates, tentatively speaking of course.  
 
Per the online calendar at this point the Guild is available on:
 
Sunday, June 15th starting at 1pm.
 
Saturday, June 28th starting at 1pm.
 
Sunday June 29th starting at 1pm.
 
July looks much better for availability.
 
Every Saturday is wide open.
 
Every Sunday is open starting at 1pm.
 
In just speaking with the Guild these dates are confirmed as open.  I told them I'd post this message and see what responses I get.  Needless to say, the sooner we lock in a 'group consensus' date, the better able to reserve the hall on a date that works for and meets our needs.  
 
So....whaddya say?  
 
Best Regards,
 
Kimberly  

The 15th looks good to me.
 
I'll have to get back to you on the later dates.

Oops! Spoke too soon. June 15th is Fathers Day

Nice catch Dan.  
 
June 15th = Not good.
 
Kimberly  

Saturdays work a whole lot better for me.  I'm usually home (i.e. not on the road) and Sundays are my regular gig .

Okie dokie.  
 
Let's look at July.  At this point in time all Saturdays are open for the month.

The quicker we select one of the 4 available July dates, the better chance we have of actually being able to book it.
 
So....let's narrow it down a bit.
 
July 5th - Show of hands?
 
July 12th - Show of hands?
 
I'm 'easy'.    Either one works for me.  IF I had a druther, it would be the 5th simply because it comes sooner and I'm really looking forward to doing this.    However, if the other dates work better for the majority that's just fine by me.  
 
Thoughts?  
 
Best Regards,
 
Kimberly  

July 12th for me.
 
Don't really want to deal with 4th of July weekend traffic over the Pass.
 
But that's just me!

Hi Guys.  
 
Dan - Sounds good to me!  And I agree completely about 4th of July traffic (another good catch).  
 
I'm in for the 12th of July.  Dan's in for the 12th of July.  
 
Guys?    
 
Best Regards,
 
Kimberly  

that's good for me too
 
thanks
