sorry to say, i won't be able to make it. between gas prices and the crazy-a$$ weather we've been having, i gotta stay home.

 

[pedro]

Maybe next time.

 

[mrpackerguy]

Oh man, please bring the Scheff, Bob! We met briefly at the Cream City/Lakland event, I was the really tall guy.

Done Sir Greg. I remember thee. Maybe bring the Martini bass too for Sh(ts and giggles.

Sorry to hear it, Greg. We'll have to get you over when we do a Chicago GTG.

Done Sir Greg. I remember thee. Maybe bring the Martini bass too for Sh(ts and giggles.

Cool, thanks, Bob!

Thank you Pedro and Ruugar for putting this together.

Very very cool collection of folks and gear. The location was superb. Thank you again!

Jim

 

[EBodious]

is it over? are you guys getting pounded by that storm up there?

 

[GregC]

The sky was reaaaallllly low, and it started raining as we got in our cars. As for me, though, I didn't hit much rain coming back.

Thanks to Pedro and Rugaar, I had a good time meeting everybody and seeing some folks again. My tube amp GAS is now seriously flaring up!

 

[superflybass]

yah I saw flooding on my way back to milwaukee

great times

there was alot of vintage and tube stuff there!!

thanks for putting it together guys

 

[Interceptor]

Gee, and my Aguilar GAS is firing up. Big time.

There sure was some tube love going on! Modern, 70's and 60's were nicely represented. SVT, V-4, B-15, Aguilar and even a very sweet Peavey. I am bummed my Eden crapped the bed last night, it would have brought a different flavor.

I totally enjoyed the day. Got me thinking Spector + Aguilar. Or MTD + Aguilar.

Jim

 

[pedro]

Wow I can't thank you guys enough for coming by. Was great to meet all of you. Everybody brought some great gear and if I had it to do over again, I'd rent the studio for a longer period of time just so we could hang out and shoot the shineola longer.

Greg, awful glad you made it back alright. I was awful worried and felt bad I hadn't thought to invite you to hang out with me a while longer 'till the storms cleared.

I'd like to do this again in a month or two and see if we can find a date where some of the guys that couldn't make can come.

Many thanks to all. I had a great time.

 

[mrpackerguy]

Lots of fun basses and gear. Thanks Pedro and all for putting it together and showing up. I was telling Jim, would be fun to have a GTG on a regular basis.

 

[Rugaar]

I'd have to say our Madison GTG was a success! Thanks to all who made the drive and hauled their gear. It was fun to meet everyone. Glad the storms held off and everyone was able to make it home safe.

Here's a few PICTURES I took. Sorry about the poor quality. I guess I was in a hurry to get back to trying everything out! Lots of cool old gear and hot newer stuff! I really enjoyed trying everything out. It gave me a lot to think about as I evaluate my own rig.

Thanks again to all for a fun way to spend Saturday afternoon. I'm looking forward to the next GTG...fall maybe?

 

[pedro]

Rug, thanks for the photos.

 

[morebass!]

Thanks for the pics Rug! I think we all had a good time. I know I did.

Hey everybody. I'm sorry I missed out on all the fun this weekend...I was out of town. But I would have REALLY liked to have brought my new Nordstrand 5 (and see what it sounds like through Jason's 4 12!!!). It makes me happy. I sleep with it. (not really)

Any talk about doing this again in the future? who had the best gear?! haha...

 

[palladium]

er, i mean, jason's 2 12. lets not get too crazy.

I think you had it right the first time.
