Hi everyone,
I plan to use the vibraphone especially for classical music. I'll be happy to listen any comments about my first record:

I think we'll be having another vibe hang this saturday! I think Behn Gillece will be here and I'm trying to get Patty Franceschi and maybe a couple other players from the area over.
Also Marc Prz will be on bass. I'm hoping for 1pm east coast USA time. As it gets closer we'll zero in more on the actual time.
Thought part of this email might be useful to others:

I'll be mailing cds tomorrow the day after Christmas. I went several times and the lines were so long! Tomorrow should be fine. So you should have them soon!
Anyone know where to get a belt for a Jenco? I have a friend who just bought one and needs the belt? Any substitutions??
Thanks
tony
What's with the m-48. I hung with vibist Tom Beckham last night and I couldn't believe he had the same experience as me. When I play my m-48 I have to move it around my floor to get it into a spot where the dampening will work. He does the same thing. I love the sound of the instrument. The bars are beautiful, but it's such a drag to play.
Any ways anyone know of to fix it?
If the front page slows down, depending on when you found the site, there's probably a lot of stuff you haven't seen yet.
Have you:
Last minute post and just a long shot, but if anyone is here from the Harrisburg, PA area, I'm at the Harrisburg Hilton tonight. Trio, John Ragonese (sax), and Micah Jones (bass).
Just thought I'd mention it. Probably should have posted this a few days ago.
The Hilton is a great Jazz Room. Sometimes it gets noisy, but for the most part it's cool.
that milt video i posted tonight is smo o o o o kin
i'll definitely keep trying! :)
have fun, post a tucksie cut sometime if you can
anywy, i'm off to listen to some music and then sleep. got a gig with tucksy tomorrow night that i must prepare for!

those days were fun because it was still pretty cheap to live.

i just think we don't have the monsters walking around like you guys do. know what i mean?
not like ny at all. but there's a solid core of great players.
those days do sound fun... tony, how's the scene in philly? there a lot of good players?
musically it was fun. that picture is in boston and we would drive up to do a 75 dollar gig and drive back!!!!
i wouldn't want to do them over again
thats pretty funny. those were really really really crazy days

Ya I need to go shed again myself. Till next time...
