This was recorded shortly before i joined vibesworkshop. i should post another version to show how far i have progressed but, right now i just want to post anything just to get my feet wet. this is a pretty rough version. i forgot the changes twice, but i stumbled thru... anyway, enjoy.
Music does not exist in a vacuum. As musicians we all need other people to appreciate our playing skills and our compositions. A musician's highest goal is to make music that will reach a large audience and maybe, just maybe, make a difference to those who hear us.
Man I listened to some Bud a while back and it got me hooked on the sound of going to the one chord from a half step above. Like Db to C. I love that sound and have been pulling it out all over the place. It's pretty cool. It's sort of like getting to the tri tone sub all the time.
Then I played a little gig with John Ellis (sax) over the weekend. And man he is a line manipulator! Being in that frame of reference and then listening to him was a great experience for me. It gave me so much to think about. It's kind of like being chromatic in a diatonic way. Does that make sense?
Is there any interest from the pan players about coming up for the workshop. If so I'd come up and be part of the workshop.

Here are a few lessons on Triad Pairs. Pretty cool stuff.
August 1st vibes workshop will be 1 year old. It's been a very hard and fun year. I've mad so many friends from all over the world and we have this instrument in common. That's totally cool.
The site is slowly growing and things are starting to happen. I think next year will be an even better year. It's great that many of you are willing to support the site as you do. I think we're going to build something great.
