I just thought this was funny. So I'm passing it on.

We all know that Behn's lessons ROCK!!

I'm starting to get back into playing a little and thought I'd share some of the exercises as I revisit them. Today I was reviewing harmonizing in sixes and thought I'd share one.

This one also has bad video quality but OK sound. Let me know what you think.

Props to the the Keyboard player, Adam Ledbetter, for taking care of the bass with his synthesizer the whole gig.

Sorry for the bad video quality. I used My computer and some mics to record it. Sound came out great but the video sucks. I guess you can treat this like an audio file. Check out some of the videos I've uploaded though!

This is a great drum solo.

Ok, nothing to do with vibes, but this guy is just so funny. Check out his other stuff on youtube also, you'll crack up.

Unfortunately he died very young...

Beautiful piece!!

I remember seeing this great video of mallet ensemble... surely from thevibe.net, and I thought about sharing it here too.

The question was asked about this weird instrument on far east of the band, with huge resonators, requiring the musician to play raised! But I think we never got the answer.

Maybe some of you have it now? That'd be cool!

Well at least, enjoy the piece!

Joe has been with us since the beginning and has become a very close friend of mine. He gives us energy and inspiration through his music and through his comments here on the site! I know he's loved and appreciated by all of us on vibesworkshop!!

Thanks for everything Joe, and happy birthday!!

In the late summer of 1972 I was living in Lucern Switzerland. Actually barely exisiting is a better description. I only had about 68 of the original 132lbs I came with and was pratically starving. The tip of my belt hung below my knee. I must have looked horrible. But I digress...

Just to wish all you vibers who are Irish or half Irish or who think or wish they were Irish a Happy St Patricks Day to you all, keep vibing. "Slainte Go Beo"

Go raibh do ghloine lán go deo.
Go raibh láidir go breá
an dion thar do cheann.
Go raibh tú í Neamh,
leathúair os comhair
a bhfuil a fhíos ag an diabhal
atá tú bás.

(translated)
May your glass be ever full.
May the roof over your head.
be always strong.
May you be in heaven
a half hour before
the devil knows you're dead.
