I see the Alembic T shirt is close to him...educate early eh??? It is a long time ago since that happened to me and I sometimes think where does the time go (Daughter 24 years old, graphic designer, Son 19 years old, autoparts assistant and angry bass player!!!)

Mine is buggin me for a PA all the time...I think Eric might have better luck when he's that age (Grampa, can we build a PA?). And for that matter, how does this Custom creation sound? Bet it screams hee hee hee Congrats nonetheless! |

Thanks, Peter, he is awfully handsome and I love that Ukrainian blouse too. But I had to share Erik's latest shirt today: So far he seems to be leaning toward being a drummer. The way he kicks all the time I'd say a double kick drum! Finger wiggling may point to piano playing or maybe even one of the stringed instruments we make here. Thanks again for the kind words, all. |

Why not let Erik inspire an Alembic version of the Chapman Bass stick so that the bottom can rule over the Top" for a change. That covers his desire for percussive sounds. What a thought, get rid of the overplaying drummer. Next boot out the EVH clone. At his point, I'm sure his bottom is going to rule anyway until he talks and walks, then he will really tell his parents what he thinks! Get sleep Mica, it is a very valuable commodity. |
