Who is this wonderful resource that moderates our forum? Does he work at Alembic? Is he a volunteer? He has helped me many times. |

Our moderator Dave is a wonderful volunteer that lives across the country from the factory. He's also the owner of a couple of fine Series instruments and plays out regularly with his band Montford Park. |

He's got enough good Kharma, he could probably sell Kharma credits (a la "carbon credits") for a lifetime to the rest of us.. ;) John |

Ditto on the help comment. Dave is always quick to help out anyone who asks. He is also able to keep a level head when many of us would have chosen a less "socially acceptable" response to behavior on this forum that is not usually seen. Please keep up the good work. You are one of the reasons I visit this site everyday. Thanks, Regards Pete |

I'll add my name to the list of Dave's fans. Consistently level-headed, and the voice of reason scarcely found on the internet. I don't think this community would be nearly so polite or enjoyable without him. I can't say that I have ever praised another moderator. Thanks Dave. |

By the way, I was just trying to check out the Montford Park website, and the link was dead. Too bad, I was hoping to check out their music. |

Dave, keep up the good work, my heart goes out to you, too. Kevin, I had the same problem. You may want to learn a bit of Montford Park in the Gigs section of the board. I've found two links at a glance. I believe there are links to some stuff that they are doing. Christian |

Ditto's to all the above! Cool dude, good guy, etc, etc. ;) Seriously, a heart felt thank you for all his help and all the good vibes he gives the Alembic community. I only hope we're able to meet in person one of these days. It would be a real pleasure. Best Regards, Kimberly |

If everyone knew as much about Alembics as Dave, there wouldn't be much use for the forum. There wouldn't be much to talk about anymore. |

Thanks again guys; and it's all of you who make this the community that it is, so thanks again to all of you for that as well. It is certainly a pleasure to be in such fine company. I can't get to the site either; I've left a message with Jon, the guitar player, advising him that it's down. Because of other stuff in life, I haven't been on the board as much as I would like recently, and I also haven't been practicing as much as I would like. The two go hand in hand, as I draw a lot of musical inspiration from this community; and I'm thinking that's probably true for a lot of you too. Anyway, I hope to get some of the other stuff balanced out to where I'm back here and in the practice room a lot more. Thanks again, and have a wonderful whichever part of the day it is in whatever part of the world you're in! |
