I saved my new Alembic shirt for a special night... this is our band New River Bound, taken backstage right before our final round of competition on Saturday night at the Old Fiddler's Convention in Galax, Virginia. We finished 8th out of 85 bands, and we're quite tickled with another top-ten finish.
*incidentally, that's my Dad's birdseye maple Kay bass... they don't allow any of them 'lektric basses' in the park. I thought about sneaking my Distillate and a practice amp in, but the thought of having to defend it from possible confiscation gave me pause. Absence makes the heart fonder, so I left the Alembics at home and went unplugged last week.
