I have an idea. how about an Etude/Technique/Gear Festival?
Let's work only on chops, and let's gather information on gear. Instruments etc.
Maybe some of you guys could do interviews of manufacturers (Drew??).
If there was an instrument maker near you, I could cover you expenses to get there. Take photos and interview people.
Off the top of my head is Balter and vanderplas of course. There's another instrument maker in U.S., begins with a D. Just a single guy I think.
Stick makers? Tuners. What's the guys name in Chicago, Gilberto!
And then Behn, Tyler and myself could handle etudes and chops stuff.
What do you think? Good Idea? I would love to gather a bunch of info on the instrument as well!

If there is anyone near San Francisco, the one thing I would love to see here would be a great project for you.
Go visit Bobby Hutcherson with a video camera and just sit down and have him talk you through his great recordings as a leader and as a sideman.
