OK, are you guys having IE6 problems? what exactly is going on.

IE6 is a terrible browser to start with. It's funny when you design something and it works with all browsers but IE6. Our first advice is to use Firefox.

Next, if you guys have a second, can you post exactly what's happening. I have to go download IE6 and test it as well. We think it's the shout box.

This is another recording from my gig at Bourbon Street.

Hal Corn- Drums
Joe Doubleday- Vibes
Mike Boyle- Bass

There were some time issues with the bass and drums at the beginning but I guess that's the way it goes.

Tips would be great.

This is a recording from a gig I did at a place called Bourbon Street Jazz Cafe in Oklahoma City. I play here really frequently. The group is called The Hal Corn Trio and consists of Hal Corn- Drums, Joe Doubleday- Vibes, Mike Boyle- Bass. The drummer is a real veteran on the Oklahoma scene. He is pretty old. 60+ years old.

The bass player did the Drum break thing but I didn't know it so I played some sour notes.

Playing in a trio setting was extremely intimidating to me when I started playing at this place but I think I'm starting to get the hang of it.

Here is a recording of a rehearsal I had today. I don't know if many people enjoy listening to this, but I have fun playing it. Sorry about the talking at the beginning, I was trying to tell the bass player something but he went ahead and started.

I think Joe Locke talked about creating your masterpiece or chipping away at it in one of his lessons.

I think we should always be creating our masterpieces, that is playing something where we're creating a final product of some sort. If you're not doing that, then I don't know how you're going to grow.

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?

A quick lesson to get you thinking about surrounding notes!

This is beautiful. Listen to David's ballad playing. The way he comps and solos.

I love the clarity of the chords, the way he I can hear melodies in his chords. The way his lines move the ballad in his solo. This is great stuff.

Hey Everyone,

We are starting to restructure the Online Books that contain all of the lesson material, performances etc etc. The amount of stuff on the site is really getting so overwhelming that it seemed needed to restructure all the posts in a better way to be able to find stuff easily.

We are now trying to organize content in 5 books. In this way everyone will be able to find stuff.

The 5 books are:

1. The Member Book - check out our members!
- In this book we will archive all performaces by members. So audio and Video.

2. The Good Vibes Lesson Book
