It was good to meet all of you guys. It was very cool trying out a few different heads through my cabs. As always I'm in awe of the skill level of you guys. I will be back next year if we do it again.........Thanks for putting it on.

What a fun time. It was really cool to meet and greet everybody. Lot's of cool gear (the non-reverse 8 string t-bird that TBird1958 brought was truly amazing) and even cooler people to show them off made for a great afternoon. Tasty beers just were a nice capper.
Hope to see you all next year.

My Signal Blue preamp looked pretty bitchin' sitting on top of your Competition Orange cabs...
I really appreciated hearing that, and also enjoyed plugging it into Spencer's Sadowsky amp's power section.
Good time; thanks to all. Now I want a big old tube head. Or- maybe a beautiful new one like Passinwind or Spencer's.

Well, I have something like 59 other tube preamp designs modeled in software already, so selling something someday might be good!
Whatever I build next will be two rack spaces instead of three -- unless I just do an integrated tube bass head similar in format to Spencer's SA200, which would be a pretty fun DIY project.

As always, a great time meeting new people and seeing old aquaintances 
I really enjoyed Passinwind's EUB and Nightwulf's Gretsch Alembicbones Alembic was simply stunning.
Thanks, Mike!

Drool!
Ya know...if you ever need some high-volume rock club testing.....
+1 and then some.
Unfortunate news: My buddy closed down The Shipwreck. So for future events we'll have to find a new location.

Bummer, that place was cool. Hope Chris finds success in whatever comes next.
That does suck. They had some good beer there, and it seemed like a cool place........I might know a place out in North Bend that would work for a GTG when the time comes..........Small jazz club that doen't open for dinner until 4PM. Let me know when the time comes.
Potential venue down here in the Hood River area. Recording sudio with a performance space, large stage. Rates are reasonable. No volume worries in this one. Would be on a BYO basis as far as the beer goes. Not sure how good the load in/out will be. I'll investigate...

Thanks for proposing some alternate places, guys. I do hope we're able to find something in Seattle proper, though. I wanna try out someone's fEARful!
Kinda hard to call it a Seattle Get Together when it is an hour drive from Seattle....There MUST be a WAY!
