Tony and Vinnie @ the Vibes Workshop 2012 (Holland)
As you can see we had a great time here.
What an incredible workshop we had at the VanderPlas Baileo factory. From the tuning of the bars, to dampening and pedaling, to how to play the instrument to how to improvise, we covered a lot of ground this week. It was so much fun.
We had people from a lot of countries including France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Slovania, Bulgaria, Canada and more. That makes it so cool to me. The fact that all these guys are heading back to their countries with knowledge and inspiration and will further the cause of getting the good vibes out there is a thrill to me.
And gives a good reason to do it! Then he gets into Oh Grande Amore.
We talked about how important it is to sing! So we sang Donna Lee! You try it!
Some ideas for dampening while sustaining.
Hello malleteers (credit to Gary for that term which I thing is perfect), here's a clip of All The Things You Are with a quartet. I'm doing doing some minor reharm on the head behind the melody played by Lance. Making some of the minor chords Dom which makes the melody a #9 and altering the major chords to Maj 7 #5.

Noticed on almost all of them shows St. John at Drums: weird he lightens up at every picture.
