Hi Gary, Do you know if the book that you wrote, "A Musician's Guide to the Road" is still available? It's an excellent book and valuable reading for vibists and musicians in general in learning how to deal with travelling and being on the…

I've lost a couple gigs recently because they Island I was to go to did not have a set of vibes on it! So I emailed Gary about traveling with a set of vibes. I don't think he'd mind if I posted his response. Sounds like the way to go is…

Let's back up a couple days. I saw Burton play, the music was great. Gary was talking about how it was new music and making jokes about maybe making mistakes. Well if they did, it didn't matter. These are serious and heavy pros. I know…

I think Tony posted something from this mallet robot previously, but here you can see it that it can be some pretty senseless technology. If anybody thinks this has anything to do with Monk or 'Trane, please tell me what drug you are on…
