This is a great lesson by David based on structures of the b5 of the dominant chord. It creates that "out" sound played over an F Blues. Thoroughly enjoyable lesson. Enjoy

Hey guys,
Normally I hate play alongs, because as david friedman said to the workshop last year, it's better to create our own play alongs because in that way we learn the tune in many concepts, but I recorded this tunes with play along just for fun. It's not something special, just messing around with lines and stuff. Thanks

John Keene's sent me this photo of Richie Havens and his parents and someones vibraphone. Wow, 2.5 octaves from C.

Hey guys,

I was working on something today, and decided to make it into a little video for VW... my first lesson here.
Hope u enjoy.

Here's a good line for rhythm changes on the bridge.

I was showing Marie this this morning. I dunno how familiar everyone is with the 1 o'clock, but they are worth checking out. Check out this incredible composition by their director, Scott Wiest.

Tarik is one of our oldest members on the site. And MAN has he come a long way as a player. He's one of our success stories! He could even be our poster child!

So let's wich Tarik a very happy birthday!

An unofficial question here: I'll be in Romania for a vibes festival March 12th. That night will be me and David Friedman, I'm opening up for him, and we'll play a tune together! That's GREAT!

Then I'm around all day tuesday. And I thought: The festival will be amazing! So why not see if anyone wants to come to the festival and then on the day after my performance do a FREE workshop at the University nearby.

Anyone interested? Any European cats nearby want to come? Friedman might be around Tuesday, maybe I can get him to stop by as well. We'll see.

Up till now our gigVibe model range was available with only 3 bar ranges:
- the 3 octaves gigVibe30
- the 3.2 octaves gigVibe32
- the 3.5 octaves gigVibe35

For the 4 octaves range, I felt that it wouldn't work on the gigVibe model, so those who were interested in that range had to go for the fancier and ofcourse more feature rich LW40v3 model.

The last couple of months we got quite some questions if we would be able to offer the gigVibe model also in 4 octaves. So I took a closer look on how to deal with that and reinforce the model here and there so it was possible.

Hey Guys,

I don't know if you are familiar with the Ralph Peterson Fo'tet. The group has released multiple albums over the last 23 years with very few personnel changes. It featured Don Byron on clarinet and Bryan Carrot on vibes. Ralph has recently reformed his group.
