I laughed when I heard vibraman mention Franz's name (Franz is a new subscriber). He said, 'Man I thought I knew all the great players in Germany'.
There's a message here I think worth mentioning. Man be humble. You just never know who's sitting in the audience, or who's around the corner from you.
I had Mike Gordon over the house today. I didn't know much at all about Phish. But man some people worship this group huh??? He shot some video for our hand drum site. Any fans? I'll also put some on face book.
I was supposed to go to the concert tonight, but i got sick.
This is pretty amazing. Check out the chime solo in the middle. Man Rollini was a monster.

I think it is very hip what Ty says here about playing, especially the part at the end about life experience.
That's his new quartet playing in the background. Germaine's tap dance is integrated into the music as a drum. She also sings, but when she is tapping, it's two drummers, bass and vibes. ..and the other drummer is Doc Gibbs, who is totally awesome!
I played a happy hour duo gig back in January. A friend captured this video and, even though its not my shiniest moment, I thought I would go ahead and post it for fun.
My friend Paul Metzger is playing with me.
Here's my first commercial for our store! I just want to go through our products and talk about them.
The site needs to generate more of income if it's too survive. So I need to get the world out there about our products, which I'm trying to do. I'm not much of a screen and stage personality, but I'll just do my best!
And these ARE really cool mallets.
Jeez, I quit. Look at this guys gig. This is totally depressing. He sticks a leaf in his pocket and is off on tour.
Hi all,
I don't usually post about my "live" radio broadcasts, but I'm excited about this one. XM Real Jazz (Satellite Radio - Channel 70 & 72) caught us on a really good night @ Dizzy's in NYC in late Jan. The results will be aired twice this weekend > Fri, March 12th at 8PM and Sun, March 14th at 4PM. We're playing music from my new CD, "For The Love OF You" (E1 Music).
I hope some of you can tune in!
The band consists of myself (vibes), Kenny Washington (vocals), Geoffrey Keezer (piano), George Mraz (bass) and Clarence Penn (drums).
hi all,
this one of many takes of the nearness of you (my favorite ballad). except for the beginning i tried not to play it as a ballad and tried more to improvise with the theme and to do some kind of stride. sorry for the poor sound but i´s only the cams mic, cause i move to another flat this week and my recording stuff is already packed.

Check us out!
I have more stuff to post, just need the time!
