Vibist Dick Sisto is appearing tomorrow night, Feb. 1st, at The Jazz Kitchen in Indianapolis. Sets begin at 7:30 and 9:30. Steve Allee will be at the piano, Frank Smith on bass and Jason Tiemann on drums. I've seen these guys a couple times and done some study with Dick and I think you'll be very glad that you ventured out into the frozen tundra to witness this one.

I haven’t had time to look and see how much this has already been covered before I joined the site. I’m hoping there is something useful here.

Hello everyone!

This is the first tune from the first album from my band Paradoxonia(Georgi Makris:Greek bagpipes,Nick "Tattoo"Vlachos:El.Bass,Dimitris Klonis:Drums,and myself on vibes.This piece is composed by Georgi.

The cd is going to be released late March on ANTart productions!You can check out our facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/PARADOXONIA/43538569479),if you want to support us!

I hope you enjoy it!

So I'm thinking Facebook, college professors, my friends, members of VW. Where else should I be hitting to get the word out about this project.

Do you guys have any ideas??

I'm thinking I need a team of people to help me with this kickstarter project. So I'm asking if anyone has any time to help the project.

Is anyone interested in really helping us get the word out? It will take about an hour a week of your time.

In return if you help, I'll send you mp3s of my 2 latest CDs (not out yet), The Jost Project and the one with Diane Monroe. And I'll send you a pair of my mallets. That's about all I can really afford to do.

Hello everyone,
I recently took part in a competition about jazz performing on master jam fest and I think I am the only one vibraphone player there. I would like to ask you to vote me. It will just take 5 seconds and the deadline for this is 15th of february. So, if you think I should win, vote for me!
I think it will also be good for the vibe community because from what I have seen I am the only one vibe player!!! the link to vote is below!

Thank you
dimitris

Hey all,

Rhythm Changes (usually Oleo)
What Is This Thing Called Love

I play a very decent set of Deagan vibes at my practice location but my home set is a cheapy Kosth and not very nice sounding at all. I've been thinking of buying a good used set, and had kind of set on $2500 as a budget, not including going and picking them up wherever that would be... I was also pretty intent on a Musser or Yamaha with graduated bars.

I found this set online and I'm not really familiar with this brand. I don't want another cheap sounding piece of crap. Any advice...???
It has graduated bars but it looks no less flimsy than my current set.

Here's #4!
