Ok, that's enough with the chops, huh? I'm away for one week. Behn said he'd shoot me if I didn't end the chops TOTM.
So let's get back to a tune. ok? Just In Time me and Behn were thinking of.
I think Behn has one more chops exercise, so we'll start rapping things up. In as week we'll start JUST IN TIME.
My semester is coming to a close and I'll get some lessons up. I have more from Christos.
How about some more mini concerts? I love them!
Maybe a vibe hang in December?

Seven Rungs of Resistance
There are 7 basic rungs of resistance up the ladder of artistic success
1. Ignorance - Not your fault. Generally the result of a polluted environment. No one
knows, so you don't know.
Example: You think funk is jazz.
2. Miseducation - Your teachers are well meaning, but just don't know. It's no one's
fault. Example: someone tells you, you have to study classical music to become a jazz
musician. Bad advice.
3. Personal difficulties - You just have some major personal problems to overcome.
I have wanted to try Tony's idea of playing three tunes in a mini concert format for a while....finally had a some time on Sunday. I learned a lot from doing this...the good and the other:) Its also a good challenge to keep your focus for the duration...which I did most of the time. Also, no motor. Anyway, here is the program.

All the Things in 3

Enjoy.

Here's the second tune we did at my vibes/accordion/guitar jam, "All the Things You Are".
I lowered the playback volume of BIAB so that the mics would not pick up as much of it and I would have a better mix with the original BIAB tracks. Unfortunately since it was too low, we got a little lost the meter, but I think we recovered. We decided to keep the track, and move on.

On Sunday I had a jam with vibes, accordion, and guitar. We were trying to get an Art Van Damme sound.

Here is the first tune we did, Here's That Rainy Day.
I"m doing a recording in Dusseldorf with David Friedman. We decided to make it a sort of live concert. But we'll only invite 20 people I think. Any VW members interested? Gonne be around Dusseldorf? Now sure if they are charging to tickets, I think they might be.
Let me know if you want to come? The audience will be in the recording studio with us. Matthais says there is room.
The recording is Monday, November 26, probably starting around 7 PM.
