Some work on my M55
Before a new school year, I did some work on my M55 to improve it.
I was unhappy with the silly W brace system, always getting loose at the worst time (when rolling the vibe to my van at 2AM for example...), and being a nonsense mechanical feature, as explained here by John Piper and Nico.
I had noticed too that the gear wasn't sturdy around his vertical axis. Just one bolt on each side to maintain all is not enough after some years of use and the horizontal pieces making the "T" part of the horizontal pedal brace were already bended, meaning a shaky vibes in a few time.

Our new TOTMs
Hi everyone,
For the next few weeks, we will be studying Summertime and Wave. These are great tunes for the TOTM, many things to talk about with both. I will be posting the first introductory lesson on Summertime shortly.

Donna Lee (Head) by John Daly
Eventually got round to doing this. Funny how the situation arose. I have started a new job as a tutor with a group of other musician in a project called Music Generation. U2 have given 5 million to get the younger generation back into to music through school projects. So this 8 piece band get together and we rehearse all different genres of music for educational purposes and one of the tunes called was Donna Lee. So as I am playing vibes drums and congas etc I had to get to work on it.

Song For My Father
Ever since the Delaware workshop, I have been working on Horace Silver's "Song For My Father" as my personal TOTM. I promised Tony I'd post something by the end of this weekend, so here's what I have so far. I played the stock key (F minor) with Aebersold, and then Eb- and Bb- are just on their own. Still have a lot of work to do, so any pointers are appreciated. Thanks!

Great Delaware Workshop!
I can't get over how great this year's Delaware Vibes Workshop was. Tony and Harvey set up a wonderful program, complete with great lessons, guest clinicians, and performances. This was my third summer at the workshop, and although I missed having David Friedman this year, it was wonderful having Dave Samuels (one of my favorite artists when I was in school), Behn Gillece and Christos Rafalides share their expertise, techniques. and stories. I enjoyed all of the lessons, and I feel that my playing has once again taken off.
