Seeing all these posts about previous gatherings reminds me that a lot of the newer members may not realize that there are a ton of pictures of past OFC gatherings in the Ovation Fan Gatherings section.

The first time you go there, I think the default view is to only show topics from the last 30 days. If you go to the drop box underneath the "New Topic" button, click the down arrow, scroll down and select "Show All Topics" you'll see all of the posts with pictures of OFC gatherings going back to the '03 Factory Tour.

Not to mention all the albums on the Social Network site.. Ovation Fan Club

As far as any future Factory Tours... that is an unknown. If they invite us, then yes, if not, then no. It's that simple, and that is truly all we know.

I think it's "Al flack" here. It's too late for me to attend a factory tour if it would be held in May, like it used to be.
It looks like the Amelia Island gig has replaced it for those fortunate enough to be able to attend.

Lots of history there, Alan. Al and the guys at the factory put in a bunch of work setting up the earlier ones. They looked like they were a great event. Then they heard that I was going to attend, Fender bought KMC and they didn't have one last year. I'm sure it's my fault. I suspect they have other priorities this year as well. Look up the stuff on the prior tours in the archives. It will make you wish you were there, especially if you lived in Connecticut.

Unfortunately, no. It took a great deal of behind-the-scenes negotiations and organization by certain people for these to have happened at all. After the first one there was such a demand for more that those certain people began to feel overwhelmed at the pressure, and responded accordingly to the incessant demands of the board members. That's why I said .
