I was checking this out. I dig this guys hands. They seem pretty fluid to me. He's improvising the piece and I like his melodies also. he studies at Peabody under ??? Van Sice a great percussionist and teacher.
Jimmy White spent the week as an intern for vibesworkshop.com. Wednesday he came to Philly from Ohio to spend the day with me and see what goes on at VW as well as try to do some lessons. Here is Jimmie's lesson on Stick Dropping.
Hey all. I'm on my way to New Orleans for the week-end to help out with auditions at the Thelonious Monk Institute, so most likely I won't be hanging out much here at the VW. I'll leave you with a Red Norvo story.
This took place at…
I was watching this video and thinking about ALL the different types of sets Gary has played on. I'm sure he wouldn't carry his everywhere.
I was wondering what he had to go up against sometimes?
I know our school lent him a Musser that…
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…
Hi All,
I've tried to contact Beiner Bags to get some info on the M55 cases, but haven't got any response. The only contact info I can find is a submit-a-question webpage (http://www.beinerbags.com/contact.php) -- I did that a week+ ago…
Hey everyone,
Quick question... does anyone know where to buy the paint Musser uses for its resonators, pedals... and for the sake of the discussion, any other parts on the vibe.
It would be nice to be able to repaint, for example, one…
Hey Guys, I set up my mics and recorded this quick lesson on how I might approach Blue Bossa.
I breeze over some things but I hope you get something out of it, and if you have ANY questions don't hesitate to ask and i'll try and explain…
I recorded this cut in 2006 at the University of Tennessee during my recital for the Master's of Music degree. Featuring Justin Haynes (p), Josh Marcum (b), Deric Dickens (d) Tracy Ozier (v) and Yours Truly (vib). I got the idea for this…
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…
Checked out Burton tonight at the Blue Note. He played with:
Gary Burton, vibraphone
Julian Lage, guitar
Scott Colley, bass
Antonio Sanchez, drums
It was a GREAT concert. The band was smokin', and every took great solos, but I was…
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…

Remembering Jack Brokensha told by Johnny Moore
When Jack Brokensha formed a Quartet here in Sarasota, I was fortunate to be picked as the drummer. This was around 1998.
He was a wonderful person to work for and to work with,…
The video(s) are going on-site for all to see and the message is, " if you respect your music teacher and his offerings, you can always come up with a "quality conclusion!".

does anybody know anything?

This is at last the finished product a lot of time went into this restoration but now that I have played them it was worth it. They are from the late 50's so parts were hard to come by but got there eventually. Comments welcome. I have…
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…
I moved to Vancouver, BC in August. Recently I was invited to have a session with a couple of fellows in my neighborhood. What resulted was flute, guitar, and vibes trio.
