Quick Note for Holland

If you're driving to Holland for the workshop this February, put your vibes in the car and put them in your hotel room. Then you can practice at night for a bit. even if you have to play quietly.

I imagine February will be a slow time for the hotel, so maybe they can put us all together. Then practicing won't matter.

Just thinking ahead. If there were a few sets of vibes there then maybe they could be passed around a little bit from room to room. that is if we are close together.

Tennessee Waltz - Falling Grace (Chords & Harmony Final) by Tony Miceli

We'll be wrapping up our 2011 Chord And Harmony Festival this week I think.

And of course with all the closings we need to sum what we've learned up in music. Here's my 'Final Project' for the festival. I'll also do a closing lesson to go along with this. I know it's out of order but who said it has to be in order! :-)

Vince Montana Jr.

I'm going to meet Vince Montana in a couple weeks. Just curious if you guys know who he is and he did. He's a real pop vibraphonist. And he's a great player. This video is from 1978 and he's using tracks! He has made a ton of money in the music business and he's a great musician!!

Can you guys find any info on him and post links here. He's a very credible vibraphonist even if he went the pop route. He's a great pop writer and on and on! He's serious.
