This guy sounds great!!!! Anyone know him? Well and the band is killing also!

I can get a great deal for subscribers on VW. $400 off a malletKat. This deal is over The end of August.

For more information let me know! However, PLEASE don't contact me unless you're ready to buy a MalletKat and you are a subscriber.

If you are subscriber for many years (more than 3) I might be able to do better.

These are the instruments.

"Smile" written by Charlie Chaplin in 1936 for the movie Modern Times. Always loved this song. It's been recorded many times by vocalists and instrumentalists. Here's my twist on this classic. I'm alternating with the I Maj chord (3rd in the bass) and a Dim Maj chord. Also alternating between the keys of F and Ab.

It's always very helpful.

Hi Everybody
I'm just back from the french Marciac Jazz Festival where i stayed almost 3 days. I've never had been there before, then knowing nobody at all. I discovered a very busy small village, with a lot of venues with jazz played live 3 or 4 times a day... The first evening I counted 32 jazz live sessions...
One of my "normal" jokes about vibes is to say that with this kind of big instrument, when you go to a jam session you have to come before the band for setting the axe and be sure to get the minimal room needed to play.

Cherokee - this morning's practice focusing on playing 8th note lines using mostly alternate sticking.

Hi All,
Yikes, the August show is tonight, August 6th! Sorry for the last-minute notice. The month got away from me! Don't forget there is always the rebroadcast on the following Wednesday at 4:00p.
Tonight is 8-10p, www.wwfm.org. This is our new website that will take you to our stations, classical and jazz. Select jazzon2 to get to the jazz side.

The recent post about piano players imitating vibes on an electronic keyboard got me thinking about grace notes.

It is my understanding that, in the Baroque era, these were mostly a notation shorthand. They were but one of many melodic ornamentations available. The playing convention was to give them a specific rhythmic value.
