We're all excited here at vibesworkshop.com because Ed Saindon has agreed to become part of our faculty. Ed will be posting lessons and more, hanging out with us at the vibe hangs! Helping all of us to get better on the instrument. Ed has been playing and teaching on this instrument for YEARS now. So he has a ton to offer!

I just thought I'd announce that. I'm going to put up his section of the site hopefully today and then he'll start sending lessons down!

Here is a pretty extensive discography of Joe Locke recordings. Some are hard to get a hand on, but this will give everyone here a pretty good basis of getting stuff by Joe Locke.

I'll try to post amazon links to the records I can find there for everyone to check out.

Do you ever ask yourself, "what's the best way for me to support the arts?" or "Is there anything I can do from the ground level that would help support the arts and keep it healthy?"

Yes, remember that every time you buy a recording or arrangement from a musician, you are not only purchasing something for yourself but you are supporting those people who are doing it.

Like: (buy something from a musician or... Join a music web site ((hint, hint))

To this day, I still love Led Zeppelin, Paul McCartney, The Stones, The Doors, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix... and of course The Beatles… and many other pop bands. I love them just as much as I do any music. They all played perfectly (to me). And today with my ears having decades of learning, listening and educating, I find this music to be even more astonishing.

Douglas Walter contacted me first, so he'll get a masterclass. He teaches at the University of Colorado. I'm hoping to video the workshop and i'll post it here!

We've been doing online concerts for a while now. We're ready and eager to do some work with colleges. So here's what we're offering.

For the first 2 college professors that get in touch with me, we'll set up an online master class. Your students can watch from the classroom and I'll be in my video studio with a bass player and we'll talk about the vibes! We'll take questions from your students, and we'll finish up with a short concert.

Any takers? It's free and it's easy to do. mailto:tony@tonymiceli.com

I'll be at

Memorial Hall
Cathedral of the Woods Church
100 Stokes Road in Meford Lakes, NJ

It will be a trio, myself, Larry Mckenna (sx) and Dave Brody (bs).

Should be cool.

I POSTED THIS OVER A WWW.LARRYSIMPROVPAGE.COM A WHILE AGO. THOUGHT I SHOULD PUT IT UP HERE! ----------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Setting up and packing up is a total drag. A total $%^$& Drag.
