I'm thinking. Check back. :-)

Happy holidays everyone!

To the first person who posts a decent version of my video lesson, Dominant & Minor Workout "Full Exercise" Pt. 2, I will do a lesson on Skype for free.

Rules:

1. Decent means it doesn't have to be perfect, but it has to be mostly accurate, and it can be any tempo, slow or fast.
2. You have to post it on the lesson:

Good luck!

Ok how about we study Scrapple and Footprints.

So here's your first lesson. Be able to play:

The melody
The chords

Memorized.

With the 2014 world vibes congress rapidly approaching, I thought I'd ask a favor. Maybe get us all contributing to the congress.

What are some of the most important posts on this site. Sure you can think lessons, but they're mainly for subscribers. Although, I think I'll make some of them available to everyone for a bit. But maybe some other things? Maybe about the instrument? Players?

Thanks Stefan!

I can't believe how much I'm learning about the vibraphone. I spent the day with Leigh Stevens at the Malletech factory and once again learned so much about the instrument!

Leigh had me play the Omega for a bit. It sounded great. Then he told me to hang on for few minutes. He turned the heat up on the room. I went from sixty five to 70. Then he had me play the Omega and it sounded So much better.

Check this out for the 2014 world vibes congress!

GARY BURTON

this is going to be the most incredible vibe event in years!!!

This is all because these great players want to try and organize an organization of vibe players.
I think we need this and this can really help us and especially help the instrument!!!!!!

I have two. The one I recently played on. It had a gel damper with no gel in it. Go figure.

I played on one in Cuba, where a person had to sit near me because the posts on the vibes would fall over some how and they had to fix the note. But that was Cuba and I felt part of the revolution! So it didn't feel as bad as it seems now!

Yep they said they had a set of vibes for me at Bucknell University. One of the more expensive Ivy League schools in the country.

I went up to play them, and the f*R%*R% gel damper had NO gel in it. So they went and got me felt pads and sad I shouldn't complain because Stefon Harris played on these. I said, well I bet Stefon was at least as pissed off as I am right now.

And then I said, IF A VIBE PLAYER ASKS YOU IF YOU HAVE A SET OF VIBES YOU SHOULD SAY NO, BECAUSE THIS IS NOT A SET OF VIBES.

ASSHOLES.
