But seriously, it looks like it was fun and that there was a good selection of instruments. Can you identify them? I see a few Fender J's, a Lakland J (JO or DJ?) an SX J, but I don't recognize or can't name anything else from the photos.

another vintage Fender Jazz
3 Lakland Scheff's
2 Lakland Glaubs (?)
Lakland PJ 5'er
Lakland Hollowbody
Kubicki Pink-as-hell
Clevinger upright

Did you guys all go out for grub and BS after? Looks like it could have , or should have been a 2 dayer. Seems I'm always a day late or a dollar short.

It was beautiful to make everyones aquaintance, new friends are hard to find. The time did fly by. Much appreciation for all who showed, and especially MrPackerGuy for the legwork, and Ian for being brave enough to share in front of the class.
PS- For the record, I am the Walrus. No, wait, I am the FrogMan. Koo Koo etc... |

I got there from Milwaukee as soon as I could - and was late. Everyone was real nice, and all, but as soon as one guy mentioned that MAYBE it was about time to be wrapping-it-up (oh - now that I think about it: I think it was one of several wives that tagged-along that first mentioned it...), boom! There I sit.
I'm sure several had gigs that night too. I mean it was cool.
~~~~~~~~~~~
It was great to be able to hold some of those high-end basses, though! Nice. ..and I guess it was a nice drive out there and back.
And the players were so GOOD! These guys were just dinkin'-around - trying-out basses, ya know? - and I was hearing such KILLER-groovin' bass playing! I've GOT to get a teacher!
Joe
