Is there a UK Alembic contingent / thread, etc?
Hello, hello, hello,
Is there anybody out there?
Just nod if you can hear me...
Is there anyone at home?

Hi there,

Yes, we're out here, but given that we're all one big happy family, we haven't really felt the need to set up a UK-specific thread :-) Just feel free to join in with everybody else's threads - you'll start to recognize where everybody's from over time.

Anyway, I'm based in London and own a Stanley Clarke Deluxe. Where are you and what's your weapon of choice?

Welcome to the club!

Hi David, welcome to the group. We have quite a few UK members, and from time to time there are UK specific threads. Here and here are some current threads.

Welcome by the way!
You came to the right place!

Hi David.
Mike P has already mentioned the scottish contingent - He's actually from new mexico and I'm from near newcastle but we're based in edinburgh. The other 2 are scots - one in edinburgh the other out in falkirk. I play a rogue fretless 5 and an epic fretted 5. You'll need to let us know where you are and when you're gigging. You can check out my band Big Tuna here

I'm an alembic devotee from the Midlands and have an Orion Guitar.

I'm the lead/rhythm guitarist for Apache Indian. You may recognise a couple of big hits he had in the early 90's (Ragamuffin girl and Boomshakalak?)
Here is his web site. www.karmasound.com

We are touring a lot lately in and out of Europe.
We have a few gigs in the UK this summer which is a rarity. lol

Apache Indian 15/16th Sep Scotland Knorraloch World Music Fest
Apache Indian 7th Oct UK Butlins Bognor
Apache Indian 21st Oct UK York Musicport Festival.

If you are close by those venues, maybe you could try to get to some of our concerts.

I confess I loved Boomshakalak... fun, catchy song...I heard it playing while on vacation in the UK and just had to go out and get it.

Hey Jazzyvee, you've misquoted your 21st October gig: it is Whitby Musicport, not York. I'll be there!

Mark; please post a review!

grateful · « **Reply #14 on:** July 12, 2006, 03:31:05 AM »

Jeez Dave, you mean I'm going to have to be objective? Could be difficult but I'll do my best!

Here is the Whitby Musicport site: I've always found it thoroughly enjoyable.
