A very enjoyable evening! After I headed back into the hills, Barrie and Art were headed over to Art's house to examine a couple of Alembic bass guitars. 2400wattman Senior Member Username: 2400wattman Post Number: 741 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Monday, September 28, 2009 - 9:23 pm:    Damn it! missed this one too?! aHHH SHi# FU*$ $#1! Dinner at Art's and hangin' in the hills with ol' Uncle Dave and a newbie to our neck of the woods is something I could've used right about now. I'm there in spirit gentlemen and take care. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 8802 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Monday, September 28, 2009 - 9:30 pm:    It was kinda spur of the moment Adam; I wasn't sure it was going to happen until today, and the timing only came together later in the day. 2400wattman Senior Member Username: 2400wattman Post Number: 742 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Monday, September 28, 2009 - 11:25 pm:    It's o.k. as I'm in central Illinois on my way to Chi-town. All the good stuff happens when I'm gone! hahaha!! We gotta get together and jam again though, I had a great time on the first visit. john_judge Intermediate Member Username: john_judge Post Number: 191 Registered: 4-2009 Posted on Tuesday, September 29, 2009 - 6:06 pm:    Well I tried to make this one, but had a full plate that day and 3 hour drive just wouldn't of made it in time. crobbins Senior Member Username: crobbins Post Number: 483 Registered: 6-2004 Posted on Tuesday, September 29, 2009 - 7:25 pm:    Well, if you guys are ever in SoCal, look me up... molan Junior Username: molan Post Number: 34 Registered: 6-2009 Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 7:33 pm:    Big thanks to Art for organising and Dave for recommending the best vegetarian restaurant I've eaten in!

Seriously though, I hope you're loving your time out there. I guess I'll see you at our basschat bass bash on the 10th oct.

It is one of my favorite restaurants also. Rene and I always try to eat at least one meal there when we visit Asheville. I don't know if you are going to be close during your trip but if you are near Raleigh give me a holler. I'm about 10-15 minutes south of there.

Enjoyed the get together with Dave and our London member Barrie (molan). Yes Keith, it was the Laughing Seed and my first visit there, it was really good. Happy 50th Barrie! Have a wonderful and safe remainder of your journey.
