Vibraphone

Video is not that great but man Bags swings so hard!

Guys,

I just got a mail today from Philippe Briand. For those who don't know him yet "Philippe" is a first hour subscriber and among our dear "young veterans". After decades of great jazz drum playing with the greatest, he started vibes over his 40's but has worked hard on it and become a fine player, member, and friend from my side.

I don't think this was already posted.....

Listen to the masters! Bobby and Joe do some great stair climbing patterns here!

Hi All,

I've done a webapp for the iPhone that shows the videos that have been posted here. Point Safari at http://vibes.phelan-4.com/roku/iphone.php to view it.

This gives us four ways now to see the videos on the site (as of this morning, that's 830 videos!):

1. On a computer with Flash -- go to the main website, http://www.vibesworkshop.com/
2. On a TV via a Roku Digital Player -- go to the Roku Channel Store and download the Vibesworkshop on Roku app.

Went to a Stefon Harris Masterclass at Temple University tonight. Stefon is a very inspiring cat! I love his playing and his vibe. He has a lot of soul. I admire guys who might think with their head but they play with their heart, and that's Stefon.

He talked about Melodic and Harmonic Tonics. Who knows what they are?

I never used these words but have done things along these lines. However Stefon gave me a lot more ideas and a new to think about this.

Before I go into it, what do you guys know about it?

I'm big on getting my time together. I have very little of it now and I must use it wisely. I need to practice 2 hours a day minimum, or I'd rather donate my body to science and spare a few bunnies what they have to go through. I can't stand when I don't practice.

I'm always checking out productivity business cats and learning from them. I also frequent the site Life Hacker. There are MANY great tips on there. This latest is a good one I think.
