Tony... stay out of this one - the rest of us want to talk (about you)

EVERYTHING this man (tony) does is top notch. Every time he plays the vibes, great music happens. So, why the hell isn't Tony written about in ALL the magazines, booked with top paying gigs and so busy performing that he'd have to hire out his vw site to someone to run for him? I know things are picking up for him but I have a theory that the reason he's not more "important" in the biz is because he hasn't got the "wave" going yet. It really pisses me off when people have to be told how good an artist is in some magazine or on some endorsee list before people can trust their own judgement.

gigVibe news

Last couple of weeks we have been working hard to set up the "sales environment" for the gigVibe.
People were asking us for affordability of the instrument, and the availability of several ranges.
So we cut down even more on costs on this instrument, and by adding options you're able to configure the instrument exactly to your needs.

Vibes Scales Diagrams

Hi vibes players!

One day I was practicing scales and I thought: "all the work with scales, areas, voicings, etc, in vibes is about making pictures in the keyboard!" then I said: "If I know the picture well all the rest is easy", ergo "I can study scales with the pictures!".

This next file is collection of most scales, for practicing in vibes without vibes (train, night, library...) or to have near the vibes when you are practicing.

I don't know if it really works, at least is an experiment, hope is helpfull!

Expectations When Conducting Rehearsals

I'd love to hear what other people do when they rehearse their bands. I'd especially like to hear about rehearsals with Frank Zappa (if anyone at VW has any experience with that). I heard he rehearsed a lot. I'd also like to hear about rehearsals with "local" bands and rehearsals that David Friedman, Gary Burton and Tony conduct when traveling, and anyone who is doing "professional" rehearsals who is paying their members for their time.
