This is a great Gary solo on a blues!
I'm pretty amazed about the competition post. It really shows what we've all done here, how we've come together. For me it makes all the work worthwhile.
It's cool to see how open everyone is, from the veterans like Burton and all the way down to players just hitting the scene like Joe Doubleday.
This might be second to us all hanging out in a club somewhere and playing and hanging, but for me it's a good second!
Here's some arranging madness with the tune Cherokee.
I posted this a long time ago. So see the 'check this out' link. Let me know what you think. And also if there's a need to talk about arranging....?

Here's a great video of Joe playing 'Available in Blue'. A beautiful tune!
A cliché Tony pointed out inspired me on this post: "Accordion is old fashion. People make easily fun of it".
Like most people, I used to think so… up to the day I met some French masters. With Gary we talked about Astor Piazzola and French Richard Galiano. I'd like to present you two other masters from my country.
Francis Varis:
He used to teach in a school near my home, where a good friend made me know him. He plays with guitarist Titi Robin, a multi-instrumentist, specialised in "eastern" guitars like oud, bouzouk…
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 and haven't received any response. Does anyone have a better method of getting in touch with them?
Of the questions I have, one has been answered. I see that they now have an option for the cases without the bar bag at $550. Two other questions remain unresolved though:
Hey vibes-men and -women,
please look at the video in "HQ" (if possible) and "full screen size"! Then you can listen to the original solo and read the music as SIBELIUS-score. The cursor always shows you where you are.
For those who are interested in the sheet music of the transcription please click the following link:

Have fun!

We've talked about competition on the site for a while now. There are people in both camps. I'm in the middle but not against competition. However like always I'm thinking of everyone on the site and their opinions and thinking about my own and comparing them.
Hey guys, thought you might enjoy this performance of How Insensitive from last week in philly!
