A colleague of mine is active in a site for Progressive Rock fans. We finally found a link between both our passions: a PR band with mallet percussions!
Don’t expect the vibes to be a star there. It’s first of all Progressive Rock:
- Guitars rule: bass, acoustic and electric guitar, chapman stick, warr guitar, and an instrument unique in the world: The Leode. That very large handled guitar, created by the player himself, after he had lost the use of his left arm in a road accident.
in 2001 i was a member of jupiter hollow. my originally role was playing b3, rhodes, over time we melted in the gigs ... i found this track of a recording session we did.. never was released ... thought you all might enjoy a bit of oregon music

I was playing the C6, Fdim chords (with the various inversions) in Dana's drop 2 lesson. As I was playing, I heard the song, "Once in a While", and thought it might be a good tune to apply the Drop 2 voicing for chord melody.
I would like a little guidance on the application of the lesson. I understand the example of playing the C Maj Bebop scale with the C6 or the diminished chord underneath, but I am not sure about applying chords to an arbitrary melody.
Hello everyone,
I have a vibraphone clinic coming up that I wanted to mention. The clinic will take place on Saturday, March 28th in Ogden, Utah as part of a PAS Day of Percussion hosted by Don Keipp.
The clinic will focus on mallet technique and address the following topics: pedaling, dampening and the fulcrum grip. Time permitting, I’ll also talk about improvisation, comping and solo vibraphone playing.
Here is the contact information:

Hi everybody,
I'm back from my week of holidays in the Alpes, and thought I could send you some post cards!
I think you'll have to be patient with the loading...
Enjoy!

I think I'll stick with vibe playing. That's hard enough. Here we build a green screen in our house and shot some video. I have to get better at this, but you'll get the idea!
Hi everyone!
A.I.R Percussion Quartet (percussion geeks group) just got a MySpace page. Please stop by and check us out! This is the link:
Hey Guys,
I've been feeling bad that I'm not around much, especially since there is soo much stuff going up, my recent activity page has a few pages of all new stuff I wanna check out, so I'll try to do that now and then.
Man, Dana, you're really putting stuff up, I love that you're contributing so much. Great stuff. And I love the way this site is evolving. More and more students putting stuff up and putting themselves in the open.
