Here's Joe and I playing 'Body and Soul'.

I really enjoyed visitng Tony's workshop @ the University of the Arts this past weekend in
Philadelphia. I enjoyed what I heard and it was a pleasure meeting all of the vibists who attended. The atmosphere was casual and relaxed, but I liked the fact that everyone came to work, and were serious about learning.

Tony's making a great contribution to our instrument with www.vibesworkshop.com and now also with events such as the Philadelphia Weekend Workshop, which affords vibists the opportunity to meet and grow in real-time.

I had a great time at the Philly workshop and this was for many reasons. First just hanging with guys and talking about the instrument for 2 days was great. However I also like being an observer and watching Joe, Dana and Mike do their thing, and see people getting excited.

Just to see the participants digging the classes was a thrill, because I know that guys are going home to practice, and I know that they left inspired. That's a huge deal.

Barry is pretty special here at the vibesworkshop.com because he was the first subscriber to the site!!

Hi Tony!

I recorded Summertime this morning and just wanted to post it to give a proof of life since I have been on holidays for two weeks now. For the comping I used my latest guitar acquisition I bought some three weeks ago. Will take some time until I manage to use the extra strings properly :-)).

Critics are welcome, am happy that the Philly workshop was such a great success, cheers Stefan
