Real Book Players

Here's a nice article about NOT being a real book player.

http://www.jazzadvice.com/why-you-shouldnt-be-a-real-book-player/

Honestly if you don't mind. To me a realbook is the sign of one of a few things.

1. A pro doesn't know a tune and he's reading it because he has to.
2. It's a student who doesn't know enough tunes. (that's fine).
3. It's an amateur. Also fine.

Anyway this article sums it up perfectly!

Malletech Love Vibe for sale

Hi all,

I'm selling my Love Vibe to make room for another one. It's a beautiful and great sounding instrument! This is the same instrument I use in many of the videos you see on the site.

I've attached some pics. I've owned it for 2 years, and was very careful in moving it around. Portability is ok with this instrument, although a little more involved than an Omega or M55. It generally takes me 20 minutes to set it up, and it fits in my small Nissan Versa with the seats down.

Behn Gillece plays an original composition "Trapezoid"

Hey everyone,

Here's some video footage from a gig I did at Smalls last month. I have a few others up on YouTube as well. Please feel free to check them out. Also, it really helps me when there are comments and "likes" on the video postings. So please feel free to "like", leave a comment and subscribe to my YouTune channel! I would love to hear your input. Thanks all!

New TOTMs as of 12/23/15

Hi everyone,

Tony and I discussed our new TOTMs. They will be "Giant Steps" and "There Will Never Be Another You." For Giant Steps, we'll discuss the various different treatments of the tune. If Giant Steps is a little too difficult, follow the lessons for There Will Never Be Another You.

Both these tunes are great, so do both if you can! Keep on the lookout for new lessons.

Dec 20, 12pm UTC -5, ONLINE PRO Vibe Hang - Miceli, Gillece, Sutin, Smith

Time

THE HANG IS HERE CLICK HERE

A very special hang this Sunday at 12 noon. Unlike the other vibe hangs, this is a pro hang. I picked 4 great vibe players and asked them to come and play for about 30 minutes. So it's a little more like a sort of concert.

This week will be myself, Behn Gillece, Anthony Smith and Randy Sutin.

It's online so you can watch at home. If you are in the Philly area and want to come buy, just let me know in advance.
