Our next gathering... Sunday, September 9th @ 21 Grand in Oakland, save the date! Load-in will be around noon, everything out by 7-8pm. that should give us plenty of time to geek out about Vactrols, roll the 12-sided dice, and wear our Darth Vader masks (as someone on AH recently noted). More information will be shared as it is available. 21 Grand 416 25th St (at Broadway) Oakland, CA 94612 12-7/8PM Previous Gatherings: Analog Heaven - California announces its 2006 annual synth gathering to be held Sunday November 12 , 2006 at the Student Services Center of the College of Marin in Kentfield, CA. Doors open at 9:30 AM and the venue will be open until 8:00 PM. The event is free but there will be a donation bucket to offset possible janitorial fees. Parking on campus on Sunday is free. Take out and delivered food can be brought to the venue. There are plenty of places to get food within a few minutes of the campus. The campus prohibits alcohol. The 5000 square foot facility should have plenty of room for all but if you plan to plug in , extension cords and outlet blocks are probably in order. The room has plenty of tables and chairs. So far Eric Barbour of Metasonix, Alan from Robotspeak, Peter Grenader of Plan B, and Dave Smith of DSI, have confirmed that they will be attending and bringing some toys to show off. Moog music will be donating some DVDs and possibly some apparel, which will be raffled off with proceeds being donated to the Moog Foundation. Aside from that, our local AHers never disappoint in bringing tons of rare and lovely synthesizers to be seen at the gathering. A campus map is at http://www.marin.cc.ca.us/com/files/Map_KTD_0304.pdf, a google map to the campus is here. Attendees should enter at Laurel Avenue and park in Lot 4 for load in and load out. From Highway 101, take the San Anselmo exit (northbound) or the Sir Francis Drake Blvd. exit (southbound) and follow Sir Francis Drake Blvd. to College Ave. (seventh stoplight off 101). Proceed a block to Laurel, turn left and go to Lot 4 - see map. Updates on the event will be posted to the Analogue Heaven email list. To subscribe to that digest, e-mail: analogue-digest-subscribe@hyperreal.org Hope to see you there!! ![]() There was a manufacturer or two showing off their work (The EAR Group, Paul Schreiber of MOTM, and Eric B. of Metasonix all brought their wares for us to oggle), as well as distributors/retailers (Analog Haven). Many thanks to Jason Proctor for securing us a venue and Cary Roberts for giving us the initial kick to get the party started.
