Hey Danno -

I believe you're holding your own contributing to the economy (cool myspace page) Let us know if you're in the area - we'll have another get together. With all of your Alembics, we might surpass the collection from the California gathering!

It is my dream to get to everyones village and hamlet with Doomtree.
(but the shipping would kill me so my road basses [4 max] could make it)
Flax brought Wolf by when he was buying an Acme. Thats as close as I get to a gathering. First balance K I ever held. A comfortable, beautiful and unique bass indeed.
Thanks again for sharing.

Hey Guys,

Austin here. I know I don't have an alembic, but I aspire to get one someday...that qualifies me doesn't it? Anyways, I just wanted to say that it was a pleasure meeting all you guys; I had a blast. And, I can't wait till the next one. Here is a link to my myspace page, so you guys can see what I've been working on musically for the past year: www.myspace.com/theaustinbrown. John should be uploading the mp3 some time today.

Cool pics John, thanks.

But why did you photo-shop all that gray in my hair? LOL

I did hear from Christian, he and the Seismic Bass made it home fine. I knew he'd have to stop playing his new toy and write us sooner or later.

I'd love to hear the MP3's too. Maybe email some clips.

Thanks again guys for a great time and I am looking forward to the next
T.A.B. (Texas Alembic Bassfest)

Olie -

I think my camera is defective - my hair has a distinct grey tint to it also - but when I adjust it to blonde, everything else looks strange

MP3 is about 6 meg, which I don't think we can post. We'll have to find a place to post and link it - maybe youtube.

Hi Austin; welcome to the board! And yes, I would imagine that being around all those Alembics might whet your appetite.

First I get blamed for Olie's grey hair, then I get blamed for Mike and Wayne's lack of grey hair, now Dave is blaming me for looking fat and he's not even in the picture!?!?!

Y'all be nice . . . you'll scare off all the other players for our next get together . . .

olieoliver · « **Reply #44 on:** June 11, 2007, 02:52:58 PM »

John I give all the credit for my gray to my wife and kids. LOL

What?s to be scared of, we?ve established that we are, for the most part, a bunch of gray headed ?circumferencely? challenged, medium aged, appreciators of fine instruments.

Totally harmless., heh heh

PS I had to edit the original post, after reading it back my descriptive word didn't come out like I thought. LOL
