Let me announce our new TOTM. How Deep Is the Ocean.

I talked with Behn and we will attempt to keep this TOTM at about a month. Behn's idea! Hence we will live up to it's description.

HOWEVER, and in addition. Next Saturday at 2 pm we will have an online class where we will talk about the tune and take questions. Behn and I want to really experiment with the class idea. We're going to be trying out (beta) two things. One is using Livestream for classes and the other is Skype.

Glen Dalrymple makes the quietest instrument I own. Well, not entirely true, but he rebuilt my M48 and it is now a beautiful instrument.

Behn and I were messing around with the m55 and m48*GD (Glenn Dalrymple). We found some things that made the m55 quieter but my rebuilt instrument was very very quiet.

If you have a new m55 don't just tighten the big nut above the pedal, tighten the one below it. As I found out. That did make my instrument quieter.

Just kidding!!!

Did post this one yet?

I've been working on the 2013 workshop for about three hours now. It sucks doing all the administrative stuff or something like this, I want to shoot myself.

ONE IMPORTANT NOTE:

DUESSELDORF AIRPORT (WEEZE) IS ABOUT 1 HOUR AWAY. YOU MUST TAKE A BUS FROM THERE.

THE BEST AIRPORT IS DUESSLDORF (MAIN AIRPORT). ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE IS COLOGNE AIRPORT. YOU WOULD THEN COME TO DUSSELDORF BY TRAIN.

Pretty funky stuff! Just watched a little bit of it. Looks cool.

The vibraphone is a strange instrument. Part doorbell, part piano, part percussion, with ornamental parts that don’t really do much and an electric motor to boot.

WHY IS IT EVERYTIME I PUT MY STICKS ON THE VIBES, ONE.... ONLY ONE..... MALLET FALLS OFF. EVERY TIME.
