Hello Everyone,

This is a six mallet marimba solo. This video is from a tour about 2.5 months ago. This show was at 11am, and I did not feel the greatest, staying up all night before, typical tour! We were abit late getting to the place so we only had 25minutes to unpack. No time for warmup of any sort.

I find tours very interesting. You have to play your best no matter how you feel warm or cold. I think it's a very good experience touring it really forces you to be on your A game.

Things aren't always what they look like.

Please don't censor this Marie!

Look at the chords and then look at the voicings. Some of the voicings look like other chords, but they're functioning as something else. (This is to go along with a lesson I'm posting)

How are you arriving and what is your ETA.

I have to fly on Saturday, and will arrive sunday at Noon. So let's plan on starting the workshop at about 3 on Sunday. I'm already changing my sleeping patters so that I'll be in decent shape when I arrive.

The workshop is usually morning and afternoon sessions. On Sunday we can do, Afternoon and Evening. OK?

Regardless I'll make sure you guys get your money's worth!

Why don't you guys post your mode of transportation and then estimated time of arrival. If you want post your flight numbers (or email) and airline. I have a flight program in my phone, I can track you guys (even tell where you are in the sky!).

It's 30 bucks to take a limo to the school. I'll get Harvey to chime in here also on whether you need a specific service or not.

Maybe we can coordinate departures with people going by the airport via car or whatever.

I've posted two links to the workshop forums on the front of the site for convenience. Workshop people should check there for news and also post any questions they have. I'm going to start the ball rolling, with things, just to get to know you guys and get you working on things. So check in often, and put questions there.

I'm thinking of how to celebrate our 2 years anniversary.
Here's what I'm thinking. Let me know what you think:

How about a 20 minute concert from Monday to Saturday, by different members. You could video it or do it live. I'd rather you did it live! It's better for all of us, knowing it's really happening in the moment, (or a moment behind).

Then Saturday, have a Day of the vibraphone. That is from 12 unitil 5 on Saturday we'll have have 40 minute concerts every hour. Until 5.
