FWIIW - the history of Alembic.
spending my high school and college years in the SF Bay Area I got to see a lot of companies come and go. At least they are still building basses.

So… moving North of Houston… I start buying guitar parts from this guy who runs Starr Guitars. Unbeknownst to me at the time I actually knew who the guy was that runs the business from my days playing the Metal scene in the SF Bay Area. Turns out he was the bassist for Bay Area metal band Vicious Rumors (which also had Vinnie Moore on their debut album). 35+ years later, halfway across the States, and numerous places in between. What are the chances?

Is that Kentucky Fried Chicken or Louisiana Popeye’s Fried Chicken grease. I would imagine the later would provide for a hotter sounding Am chord!?

I got drunk and went to bed at 9:30. The traditional fireworks and gun fire woke me up at midnight. Good to see some traditions are still held sacred. Christmas was a total flop this year. XM cut their Christmas music channels ofd at midnight Dec 25th. Store decoration shelves were empty before the 25th. It's like there was a concerted effort to wipe out tradition this year.
Can't handle alcohol as I fight the aging process. In my own defense it was the strongest I could find. 10.2% alc.. Basically 1 was like 2.5 so I essentially downed 8 beer in the time it takes to have 3.
2021 was a horrible year for so mamy reasons for me. I've never felt so alone and isolated and miserable in my entire life as I did this year. But I was so busy I hardly had time to think about it until now. I didn't sit down for 10 minutes all year 7 days a week from January to mid December. I was and still Am exhausted. I did a TON of work inside and out here at my house not to mention what I went through with my dog in the coldest month in 200 years here while my wife was in Hawaii telling me I was overreacting.
Something's gotta change this year or I'm throwing in the towel.
Edit: Oh yeah ... Happy New Year.
I have no idea where you’re at Shane. This was last winter at our previous home up by Lake Travis, North of Austin was brutally cold. We had moved to Texas from Idaho, due to the little lady’s express wishes to get out from under the snow we got hammered with two years in a row in Idaho. When we packed up to move from Idaho, I went to grab the snow shovel to take with. You know, “be ever prepared, you never know what may happen.” She says to me, “leave the shovel here. What are you daft? It doesn’t snow where we’re moving to.”
“Move to Texas,” she says.
”Leave the snow shovel,” she says.
Yup. Needed a snow shovel.
I could move to Belize and still get snow! That’s just my luck. So…… blame the awfully cold blast we got last year on me… 😉

Here’s to wishing you all a musically prosperous 2022. May you all have much GAS!

Well…. It’s 76° in Metro Houston. High of 84°. The pool is a brisk 74°. But tonight. I’ll be joining you with an overnight freeze.
