Tarik is one of our oldest members on the site. And MAN has he come a long way as a player. He's one of our success stories! He could even be our poster child!
So let's wich Tarik a very happy birthday!
An unofficial question here: I'll be in Romania for a vibes festival March 12th. That night will be me and David Friedman, I'm opening up for him, and we'll play a tune together! That's GREAT!
Then I'm around all day tuesday. And I thought: The festival will be amazing! So why not see if anyone wants to come to the festival and then on the day after my performance do a FREE workshop at the University nearby.
Anyone interested? Any European cats nearby want to come? Friedman might be around Tuesday, maybe I can get him to stop by as well. We'll see.
What an incredible workshop we had at the VanderPlas Baileo factory. From the tuning of the bars, to dampening and pedaling, to how to play the instrument to how to improvise, we covered a lot of ground this week. It was so much fun.
We had people from a lot of countries including France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Slovania, Bulgaria, Canada and more. That makes it so cool to me. The fact that all these guys are heading back to their countries with knowledge and inspiration and will further the cause of getting the good vibes out there is a thrill to me.
Tjaco is one of the guys who have been so supportive and helpful on the site. He just had a baby, so I got a feeling he will have less time for the site!!!!
Congratulations Tjaco!!!!!!
Vibe hang this Sunday! Should be a lot of fun. We'll be here in Sassenheim, NL at the vanderplas factory for a 2012 workshop. Come checkout and support all the players that came for this great event!
And of course we'll get David Friedman to play a couple tunes. Check it out if you can.
