Man, there are so many of us here now. I keep think of ways for us all to work and grow together.

So here's my pitch: The Summer of 2010 will be 'The Summer of Vibes'. Let's play for each other this summer. Let's play little concerts for each other pros and amateurs!

To me a concert has a few things to it. It usually has some talking or announcing and has more than one tune.

So let's say that if you post a recording where you are talking about the piece and it's more than one piece that it's a concert.

This is my attempt at the tune Spain there are a few mistakes here and there I have played it better but here it is anyway, all comments welcome, I am working on a solo as well.

Cheers John

Hey Guys,

As I've been away most of the time lately I thought I'd give an update on what I'm busy with, and that's the reason that I'm not online much.

So I had two really great gigs last couple of weeks. One was with a trio(vb-bs-git). A great bass anf guitar player from amsterdam. We had a real nice gig and I did record some stuff. But it needs some editing, so I'll post that when I have time.

Guys,

As you know Tony is out for the week end... But it doesn't mean it's holidays!

So what are you doing here reading this stupid message: go and check all the lessons, posts, vids, audios, get back to your mallets and go practice!!

The boss will be back soon, expecting tons of posts and comments around!! And by the way, I'm watching over you!! So mind your steps!!

Other Miscellaneous Updates:

Hello everyone, still uploading videoclips from a recent quartet gig that featured Rick DiMuzio on sax, Mark Walker on drums, Bruno Raberg on bass and me on vibes. Here's one that we just uploaded. Ed

This is hysterical.

Well I finished my little series on the melodic minor scale. I think I'm going to do one on the harmonic minor also. Although I need to study that one first a little more.

Behn is coming over Wednesday to shoot more lessons and I have some more planned as well.

I want to get into writing some more serious etudes, so I'm thinking about that as well. I'm just not sure whether to write the etude over the changes to a tune or make it up all new.

Just letting everyone know that more is on the way.
