Does he work at Alembic? Is he a volunteer? He has helped me many times. mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 5436 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Monday, July 28, 2008 - 2:01 pm:    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. 811952 Senior Member Username: 811952 Post Number: 1434 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Monday, July 28, 2008 - 4:01 pm:    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 kilowatt Member Username: kilowatt Post Number: 83 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Monday, July 28, 2008 - 4:32 pm:    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 keurosix Advanced Member Username: keurosix Post Number: 350 Registered: 10-2005 Posted on Monday, July 28, 2008 - 7:49 pm:    He's a great guy. Very knowledgable, and a pleasure to do business with.

Thank you, for the comments, the community, and for your friendship. hydrargyrum Advanced Member Username: hydrargyrum Post Number: 344 Registered: 3-2004 Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - 8:20 am:    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. hydrargyrum Advanced Member Username: hydrargyrum Post Number: 345 Registered: 3-2004 Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - 8:23 am:    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. speicky Advanced Member Username: speicky Post Number: 309 Registered: 3-2005 Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - 8:40 am:    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.

Seriousley though, Dave is one cool cat. In fact he's sooooo cool, that I got an email from him the other and had to put on my jacket. Stay Cool Dave, OO kimberly Advanced Member Username: kimberly Post Number: 272 Registered: 1-2007 Posted on Thursday, July 31, 2008 - 12:55 pm:    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.

There wouldn't be much to talk about anymore. byoung Senior Member Username: byoung Post Number: 1071 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Friday, August 01, 2008 - 1:32 pm:    Are we talking about Dave, or Chuck Norris? richbass939 Senior Member Username: richbass939 Post Number: 962 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Saturday, August 02, 2008 - 8:47 am:    Ditto, ditto, ditto. Thanks, Dave, for all you do and especially for who you are. Rich davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 6849 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Saturday, August 02, 2008 - 1:48 pm:    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! 811952 Senior Member Username: 811952 Post Number: 1436 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Saturday, August 02, 2008 - 4:28 pm:    Chuck Norris wishes he could play bass and moderate forums as well as Dave... ;) chuck Advanced Member Username: chuck Post Number: 223 Registered: 3-2005 Posted on Sunday, August 03, 2008 - 6:29 am:    Dave has long hair and a beard,lives on a mountian in the woods wears sandals and is a vegan.He is a wise and noble person.
