The Wall Street Journal has an interesting article on the modern business of writing song lyrics. See http://online.wsj.com/article/SB100014240527487041649045754218135164517….

Hi all!
As my baby and his mother are sleeping I can't play vibes and instead I play guitar.
David Friedman talked at the Delaware workshop about Jazz as a language one wants to learn. This recording of mine shall show how I speak "Jazzguitar" after about 18 years of "training" now.
Sorry, no vibraphone this time, hope you don't mind, btw the piece is called Somebody's Soul and I actually play only the comping - maybe someone wants to dub something over it?
any feed back welcome
cheers Stefan
This is my 'weapon of choice' at the moment. A Hungarian hammered dulcimer- the Cimbalom. I got it in February and have been practicing like nothing else!
If it interests you I have attached a chart of how it's tuned- it's all over the shop!
I'm planning to get good at improvising on it and start a manouche band...
H'enjoy!

Beautiful! Simply beautiful! :o)
I found this video on Ed Mann's Facebook page this morning of a performance by the CalArts Percussion Ensemble. Nice piece and performance. Click here for the video.

Guys,
Oh man. This is terrible... I just got a message from the awful "M. the Inquisitor". She is back! She urged me to post this message for you guys… I'm terrified… So here it is:

Now wait people!!
You think Tony Miceli is a great master and composer, right? You are all in total awe of his new tune "Prelude for a Rock Star"… But you don't know the truth…
The truth is Tony Miceli is an impostor, who has been trying to fool you all since ever!
I'm posting this video for David.
Enjoy Tony!
