@mikebalter Every time I'm feeling sad, I will play the vibraphone with my Tony Miceli 46R mallets to cheer myself up.. #MBMTweets pic.twitter.com/UfSSXK6YCL

I think we have a picture of Paul Mcartney playing the vibes. Now here's Brian Jones!
And here's a video:
I got the idea to do a series called "a Little Bit Goes a Long Way".
There are some simple things that I learned that really branched out into many other things. Kind of like launch pads for so many other things.
I would argue that just about everything we learn can go a long way. But there are special things that really do.
I remember playing a simple progression Amin7 and Bmin7 and then coming up with all these ideas just using those 2 chords.
Do you guys have any simple things you practiced that went far in learning to play the vibes??

”調式互換“（modal interchange）
寫一首C major的曲子，我們有七個順接和弦（Diatonic Chord）可以用。
而且每個和弦你可以用不同的和聲配置（voicing）達到不同的效果，
像是C5, C, C major7, C major9(13),C major7/E….
現在我們創一組和弦，只用到Ionian中的和弦
I Vi IV major7#11 I major7
C A- F Major7#11 Cmajor7
但是如果想要更多色彩，可以用”調式互換“（modal interchange）或著我們可以說，跟其他的調式借和弦來用（the borrowing of chords from Parallel modes）。
Parallel modes = 不同音階，但是他們用同一個主音。
I was in the studio with my Omega (Morningstar Studio). The engineer walked in the room to make sure I had AC for my motor. Why, because he couldn't hear the motor in the mics.
He came in the room and looked at my instrument and saw the wings moving (wings are how Omega does tremolo). He said "OMG your motor is on. I can't hear it in the mics. That made me feel really great about my instrument. He's used to noisy instruments and this is the first time he has heard a very quiet instrument.
with Nguyen Lê on guitare, Chris Jennings on Bass, John Hadfield on drums and myself on the vibes.
Dan is a great young vibe player from California, doing some very cool things. He plays vibes and harp! If you can support him that would be great! It will be great music!
He's a good vibe player, huh?
He gets going and then they take it out a bit. Really good musicianship!
