I really enjoyed my visit to the mothership and meeting members of the forum at the annual meet in 2012 and would love to come back again. To that end I put up a little survey on one of the Facebook groups earlier this year to see if there were any alembic owners outside USA who would be interested in attending the meet next year, 2017, as a group to make it more of a global affair. There is some interest so I just wondered how practical it would be to fix a date for the 2017 in advance, preferably some time this year so there is enough time for us non USA residents to get ourselves organised and sort out accommodation and flights etc. I did offer to be the "point of contact" between us here, alembic and the Facebook forums so that we get one stream of information passing back and forth and less confusion. I haven't asked the question about who would be bringing instruments. I doubt if I would be as I'd be making a 2 - 3 week holiday of it with my other half so don't relish carting instruments around the states for that time. Any thoughts are much appreciated.

Hey V. Was that what you messaged me about on FB? Our home broadband is stuffed so I'll not see much on social media till next Wednesday at the earliest. As it happens we're planning our 30th anniversary trip for next year sometime and I've suggested a much longer stay in S.F. Graeme |

Great idea, Vince! We could house some instruments here during a longer holiday - you could swing by at the start and end of the trip. |

Usually I like to gather us all up in April or May, as the weather is best for the location (later in the year is gets wickedly hot!). I'll find out from our host if we can reserve the ranch waaaaay in advance. |
