Hi all,
Really looking forward to this bebop course! Tony and I have been talking about doing something like this for awhile and I'm glad we're doing it.
Mondays will be the main day for postings. Check out the lessons Tony put up, they're great and it looks like some people are posting already, which is awesome!
I will put up more on Wednesday. Hope you're all into it!

It's great to listen to Gloria Krolak's Radio hour. You will here vibe players that you won't here on the radio or find any other way. It's great to hear guys you know nothing about and go 'wow they sound great'. Well, or 'I don't dig that'. Just put this on and listen to some of the guys out there.
Here's a nice article about NOT being a real book player.

Honestly if you don't mind. To me a realbook is the sign of one of a few things.
1. A pro doesn't know a tune and he's reading it because he has to.
2. It's a student who doesn't know enough tunes. (that's fine).
3. It's an amateur. Also fine.
Anyway this article sums it up perfectly!
Hi all,
I'm selling my Love Vibe to make room for another one. It's a beautiful and great sounding instrument! This is the same instrument I use in many of the videos you see on the site.
I've attached some pics. I've owned it for 2 years, and was very careful in moving it around. Portability is ok with this instrument, although a little more involved than an Omega or M55. It generally takes me 20 minutes to set it up, and it fits in my small Nissan Versa with the seats down.
I am coming to London!
Come by and say hello! Also if you're interested in a private lesson see below.

Hey everyone,
Here's some video footage from a gig I did at Smalls last month. I have a few others up on YouTube as well. Please feel free to check them out. Also, it really helps me when there are comments and "likes" on the video postings. So please feel free to "like", leave a comment and subscribe to my YouTune channel! I would love to hear your input. Thanks all!

The video shows the setup and playing the new foldable vibe frame.
Hi everyone,
Tony and I discussed our new TOTMs. They will be "Giant Steps" and "There Will Never Be Another You." For Giant Steps, we'll discuss the various different treatments of the tune. If Giant Steps is a little too difficult, follow the lessons for There Will Never Be Another You.
Both these tunes are great, so do both if you can! Keep on the lookout for new lessons.
