All the best, people of this shining, spinning, blue orb in the blackness of space and time! One more time around.......at least.
 
Right on, Pete!

Sharp eye there Bradley!  No; it's not my bass.  It is however a rather well known bass on the forum.

Happy New Year guys, 2012 was a good year for me and certainly the combination of getting my Series II, meeting the Alembic dream makers and you guys at the California meet this year is certainly amongst the highlights of the year.  
 
Two of the bands I play in have albums planned for release this year and have been talking seriously about touring so there is a possibility of me hitting the road again but with my bass this time.  
 
I'm also planning to record and release some of my own music this year. I've done quite a fair bit of composing and home recording in the past but have never been able to persuade myself that I was representing myself properly or that it was up to the standard I aspire to. So, I'm planning to be more realistic with myself and start writing music again and be more objective with the finished product  and get a second opinion from another musician who's opinion i trust before i decide it's future.
 
Have a fantastic 2013.

Jazzyvee,
Will the tours include any dates in the States?

You got it, Art; I'll buy you a coffee next time we get together.

Thanks for including a pic of you and my bass, Dave! Given your  own gorgeous instruments to choose from, I'm very flattered. And, Art, thanks for the kind words and link to Mary. Wish I could hook up with you and Dave for coffee and jamming!
 
Again, HAPPY NEW YEAR to you both and everyone else connected to Alembic.

Thanks for the kind words Sam.  Anytime you can make it out this way to Western NC we'd love to do some jamming and coffee!

Having been to Dave's for refreshments and jammin' with Dave and Art, I can attest that it is well worth the trip.  However, you had better go when there's no snow or make sure you have 4 wheel drive + chains or you'll never make it up Dave's driveway!
 
Bill, tgo

Sam:
 
Before you get so envious, I was in North Carolina because my brother, the dentist, lives there and I needed not one but two root canals.  Hanging with Dave and Art was definitely the high point of the trip.  (Not a lot of competition there!)
 
Bill, tgo
