So here's another video of my mentor, Steve Giordano. Again listen to him play. I think you can imagine playing most of this on the vibes. For me, this is where the solo playing comes from. We can learn a lot from the guitar.
Just imagine this was a set of vibes.
Greetings Vibes people
this site is great! I had no idea so many people are involved in playing mallet instruments. I am having a good time reading thru what is here.
I play a 1979 Deagan #594 vibes with Serna pickups. I love this instrument, and have never lost (1) pickup ever. It sounds great, I like the bar sizing and it has held up to a rigorous life, from world tours in road case to it's local rustic Suburu roadcase.
more soon!
thanks

Hi vibe workshoppers-- I'm finally posting something -here is a tune I wrote and recorded a couple of years ago with polychrome, a group I have in Los Angeles with sam Riney on sax and John Chiodini on guitar. New stuff is coming soon, but for now, enjoy i hope-- Bob L
I'd like to begin a discussion about feet. Your feet and how you deal with them when you're playing. Vibes players may be at risk for foot and back problems because we are often standing on one foot with the other on the pedal. The weight distribution is very unbalanced. Has anyone had problems with either foot, leg, hip or back pain? What did you do about it? What helped? What didn't? What kind of shoes do you wear while playing? Do your feet stink?
Hi to all vibists. Very happy to inform you that my instrument is really amazing.
VanderPlas put some pictures of my vibes on the site, it's the adapted Musser.
Now it looks even hipper than before, hihi!

I read part of your incredible and huge Blog in French. Plus seeing you online and so active since your arrival, I think it'd more than fair if you could let us have your story in one page (not an easy exercice huh?)! :o)
I'd love it see you in the Who is book!
Pleeaaase!!! :o)
