How to adjust your time settings.

If you notice when you post something or when you write something in the shout box(you can see the time a shout was entered by holding your mouse over it!) that the time it displays is incorrect, you have to adjust your personal timezone setting on your account page. Here is how to do this:

I found this clip while searching for any video of Larry Bunker on vibes. I have always been a huge fan of Henry Mancini and he always featured great vibes players such as Larry Bunker and Victor Feldman on his albums and soundtracks. Larry was also a fine drummer who toured with Bill Evans in the 60s was one of the most in-demand studio percussionists of the era. He was well versed in the entire scope of percussion: mallets, timpani, Latin and ethnic percussion, you name it. We lost him in 2004. He passed away from complications of a stroke at the age of 76.

James Armstrong is a member of vibesworkshop.com. I thoughtI'd post this video of his duo. Pretty cool stuff, I thought you guys might like checking it out!

I was reading thru the blogs and found the one that mentions about an injury and down time from practicing. after reading it i new i must share my views and experiences.

So to make a long story short ill cut to the case...

Trivia Q. How many notes are there in one octave of the vibraphone?

I started transcribing David Friedman's "Lunch with Pancho Villa" from the video in the "Check This Out" link, above.

I am having difficulty with the sticking on the 3rd line and can't make it out in the video. Suggestions would be appreciated. Corrections are appreciated also.

Attached are the LilyPad input and the PDF output files.

Thanks,
Barry
