I had in mind a 'Summer of Good Vibes' much different from the one that happened. But this one was pretty cool, thanks to Stephen Hambright, Harvey Price, John Daly, the one and only David Friedman, Marie Noelle and all the vibes workshop people.

We can't forget the companies that helped us out. VanderPlas Baleo, Yamaha, Mike Balter and the biggest percussion dealer in the world Steve Weiss and the U.S. Embassy!!

Not vibe related, but any cats my age will go OH YEAH.

Here's my latest email from 92 year old vibe player Angelo. Man did he just design the ultimate frame? I think video is coming!

Hi, Tony! Haven't heard from you for a while. How did your gig in Europe go?

Remember me telling you that I was working with my machinist in redisigning the
vibraphone frames (keybed & base) so that the  heavy weight of these parts are
detrimental to the vibraphonist especially for multi-gigging.
