Post Stick schedule and teaching
Summer has been quite busy. After our move back to NY, the gig schedule in our beach town was fairly busy. That winds down in a few weeks. As usual, this gives me more time to teach. I will be scheduling new online students beginning late August. Feel free to contact me with inquiries. All styles, levels, locations.
Of course I'll be teaching at Jim Meyer's Stick Summit in 2 weeks and look forward to this amazing event.

I would imagine doing a search on these company's websites would do it. They occasionally show up on ebay as well. SE may have some copies. I lost my inventory during the hurricane Sandy epidode

Amazon UK have it (that's where I got mine) so it should not be hard to obtain in other countries too?

When you see free information on the internet,
download it to your hard drive,
because it will eventually disappear forever.

Chris Crain's work has disappeared.
http://www.thecrains.net/stick/

Figuring out Melody, has disappeared.
http://www.calvin.edu/academic/music/pd ... Melody.pdf

The cipher.com, has disappeared.
http://www.thecipher.com/

This one is still there.

I've got "Stickology" e-book from Amazon, and found it to be very useful for my learning, as well as the included videos.

As soon as I liked the material, I feel like it would be also great to buy "Ultimate Stick" videos in some way which does not include physical delivery of the digital content.

Being too far from USA and too nomadic for receiving anything physical easily, I already had spend more than a year to find a working way to deliver my Railboard abroad. Skipping these logistics for the videos would be great.

In the same time, I am somewhat confused why all Stick related learning videos from all mentors are still sold only as DVDs. I do not even have any DVD drives for at least 8 years already, same way as I do not have floppy drives, and at this point DVD's are on the VHS side of the technology relevance.

Anyway, even DVDs are sold out. (As well as Culbertson's lessons)
Is it possible to buy videos somehow without dealing with discs?

Thank you in advance.

UPD:

P.S. Found a thread from DavidWS with the similar request, and looks like it is impossible to get a copy unless you accidentally find one in some ancient crypt.

Stick learning materials disappear one by one. And not like that was a lot, compared to other instruments.
That's really sad.
