2009 PAS/Yamaha Terry Gibbs Vibraphone Scholarship

I don't post much but now that I'm studying with Tony, he said that I have to share this on the site. I sent a dvd of me playing to PAS last year to apply for the Terry Gibbs scholarship and I got an email yesterday saying that they have selected me as the winner. I'm pretty excited about it and thought I should share this on vibes workshop. They also said that they're going to put me on the site which would be pretty cool.

I'll check some hotel prices out over the next couple days. Everyone says to use priceline.com, that because of the recession you can get hotels very cheap.

If you want to keep track of this post, just make a comment even if it just says keeping track. Then when I update it I'll post a comment and you'll be notified.

Hotels and Accomodations

I found this link for hotels and rates when visiting a campus in Philly: http://www.onebigcampus.com/hotel_specials.htm

Here is a hotel U Arts recommends: Holiday Inn Express Midtown

Here's another link of a hotel where students of mine have Stayed. This is very close to the school. Alexander Inn

Here's a hotel that people say is not the nicest but it's good. Rodeway Inn

My business partner found this $85 a night www.clubquarters.com

Ideas for the Summer

I had this idea today. Just trying to figure out how to implement it as well see if there's interest.

I want to start a tune club for the summer. I would like it to be very disciplined. The idea is we learn 2-3 tunes a week.

I got it... we could do it like this. Week Challenges. I'll post the tunes say on a Wednesday. We all study the tunes all week and then post by the the following 7th day your version. I (or maybe Phillipe!) will make play along tracks. Just rough for you guys to learn the tunes. Everyone has to submit the tune by the 7th day.
