No, this was back 20 years at least before the fan club. Strictly an employee thing.

Rumor 'round town was it was a pre-1900 industrial-complex-bell-tower-steampunk version of the mile high club...sometimes the bell would ring during working hours for no discernible reason.

Where do you think they came up with the names "Legend", "Applause" and "Hamer". All were derived from nicknames of bell tower participants.

Okay...I'm starting to get the idea that the bell ringing thing is a euphemism of some kind.

Yep, but as Ovation never listed Serge Lara as an endorser, not sure if he ever visited the factory. Several us have tried very hard to get the Ovation and Adamas guitars back into his hands and on his CD covers.

No, it was just guys who went up there for an afternoon smoke break, and this was well before the days of being politically correct. If anyone tried any of that they would have experienced flight.

LOL!!!! There should always be some perks to the job, eh?

From everything I have heard, you were very well loved as a Person, and Boss, Beal!
For so many to speak so highly, is a great compliment to your style of dealing with people!
