Hi All,
Poking around here as I've been working on the Vibesworkshop on Roku app, I discovered an interesting statistic -- as of this morning (2010-May-17), there have been 658 videos posted here. By access level there are:
Jeesh! What a resource!

Hello guys, Vic Firth is presenting an excerpt from the University of New Hampshire concert with Dave Liebman - Soprano, Matt Wilson - Drums, David Clark - Bass and me on vibes in a Video Podcast.

Nacada is a lesser known tune written by Pat Metheny many years ago. I don’t think it has been recorded very much. It has a very short form, a mere 8 bars long. Yet it provides lots to work with when arranged as a solo piece or played with a band.
In this version I added a little synthesized string parts in the background as an experiment. I think they blend well with the vibes and help to fill out the sound.
Barry posted a version of Estate, A lovely tune. I recorded this with a trio also a few years ago and thought I'd share this too.
Let me know what you think Barry?

Un video interesante con marimba y theramin. Un theramin se utilizó en el tema de Star Trek original. Pongo una foto de un músico theramin tambien.
Man, there are so many of us here now. I keep think of ways for us all to work and grow together.
So here's my pitch: The Summer of 2010 will be 'The Summer of Vibes'. Let's play for each other this summer. Let's play little concerts for each other pros and amateurs!
To me a concert has a few things to it. It usually has some talking or announcing and has more than one tune.
So let's say that if you post a recording where you are talking about the piece and it's more than one piece that it's a concert.
This is my attempt at the tune Spain there are a few mistakes here and there I have played it better but here it is anyway, all comments welcome, I am working on a solo as well.
Cheers John
I want to acknowledge the life of a teacher and friend who passed away suddenly at the age of 61 last week Saturday May 8, 2010.
I started takeing drum lessons from Terry when I was 7 yrs. old. I continued with him until I was 15 yrs old and had a friendship with him through out my life. Terry was an excellent teacher, always encouraging, supportive and gave me a good reality check a couple of times when I needed it. He was never demeaning, just a regular guy, and a very nice and caring one at that.
Hey Guys,
As I've been away most of the time lately I thought I'd give an update on what I'm busy with, and that's the reason that I'm not online much.
So I had two really great gigs last couple of weeks. One was with a trio(vb-bs-git). A great bass anf guitar player from amsterdam. We had a real nice gig and I did record some stuff. But it needs some editing, so I'll post that when I have time.
