Hey everyone, I just wanted to let all of you know that I have a new book out! It's titled "Sight-Reading Skills for the Mallet Percussionist" and it's published by K. Wylie Publications. For those of you who don't know me, I teach at multiple schools with students from 6th grade up through university. This is a project I've been working on a long time and it's finally finished.

I hope you will forgive the shameless plug, but I thought I'd let everyone know. Here's a link for it:

Are you guys listening to our next TOTM Fried Bananas?
What tune is it based on?
Who wrote it??
What recordings are you listening to?

Start getting it in your system, it's a good tune.

Let's make this the research page for the tune. See what you can dig up.

i am on the site for almost 2 years now and i just want to encourage more people to post.to me it´s a little bit pity that there are so many members but most posts are done only by few memebers. i can for sure understand that many people don´t want to post something, because they think it´s not good enough to be listened by many vibes maniacs or the masters like david friedman or tony miceli. maybe i´m wrong but the main goal about posting is not "fishing for compliments" or try to make the perfect version of something.for sure getting a compliment is nice but that´s not really important.

I was thinking, we have tons of buried lessons and videos here. So if you can, take a second and find your favorite lesson and put 'Diggin' It Up' in the title.

Let's all wish David a very happy birthday! Besides being a great player he's a great teacher and a very giving vibesworkshop cat! I personally love having him hanging around VW!!

Happy birthday David!

Hi Everybody !

Here is Up jumped spring, inspired by Tony and David workshop video.
It's a practice time video to check bad and good things !

As of this morning, there are 1,000 Vibesworkshop videos available via the Roku, Android and iPhone apps.

The Roku app has been installed on 2,565 Rokus and the Android app has been installed on 104 Android phones. Due to the nature of the iPhone app I can't really tell how many people are using it, but it seems to get a little more use overall than the Android app, and a fair amount less than the Roku app.

For info on how to install and use the apps, see the "Check This Out" links.
