hey,

another friday, another version of that song. don´t think we just play only this tune but i love to compare different versions and different feelings of the same song. unfortunatley the mobile tel. of the guitar player ringed during the end theme so i faded out before. this time the sound is not from the cam but from my recording gear...

I'm going to try to Livestream my gig this Sunday afternoon. We're playing as a trio (vibes, bass, drums) outdoors at a farmers market. I'm told they have very good 4G signal, so what the heck :-).

The stream will be at http://new.livestream.com/accounts/1758489/events/2161697, starting at 1:30PM EDT on Sunday, 9-Jun-2013. There won't be anyone there who can monitor the feed, so if you stop by leave a comment here or there so I know!

This will be an interesting experiment!

Hi All,
Time to announce July's program. It opens with "America the Beautiful" by Bob Masteller, musician and owner of the popular Hilton Head Island Jazz Corner. (I still can't believe they've been open every night with jazz on their stage for 14 years!) Their first artist was the incredible George Shearing. I understand Bob is a new member here.

Ok, here's my final. Do your. Play the tune. Anything, do something! Play the head, take a solo. Just play the head.... do something!

Here are finally some videos from our winter workshop in Wuppertal - Germany. This one is the free ensemble made of all willing participants, and "directed" by our host Matthias Goebel.

Honestly I'm not much into 'free' music, but what Matthias managed to get the guys into is really beautiful to my ears. Just take those few minutes to listen. Thanks a lot Matthias and guys!! :o)

Taking a little break from our TOTM here! Hope you like this exercise!

Love for Sale. Most of my solo is on the 2nd link, although some of it got cut out.

-Drew
