So, Dave, how did the jam go?

Lenoir. It's rare that I just play the harmonica alone. Thus far this year I
will have played for money playing the harmonica. Robin Rogers a local blues and
female vocalist of the year will also perform. She too plays the harmonica. I
met her by way of Rich Baum who lives in Northern California. Anyway, if you can
make it, I am sure you will enjoy the show. David

Dave,

Thanks for the invite, but I work on Friday evenings, so I won't be able to make
it. Knock 'em dead (and please DON'T break a leg)

Regards,
Crazy Bob

attend one held east of Seagrove on Highway 705, about 1 mile past Union Grove
Baptist Church. It's held on Thursday evenings, starting about 5:00 PM and
ending about 8:30 PM. Tons of fun, good food and lots of great musicians! I've
never experienced the "harmonica doesn't belong here" attitude from anyone. I've
been urged several times to get on a mike for the night, but I'd rather just
play in the background unless specifically asked to lead a song. I think I've
learned more from just sitting in and trying to figure out chording to support
everybody else AND avoiding walking on either the vocalists or the other lead
instruments than from anything else I've studied. It's a very supportive
atmosphere!

Bob, today I realized that you live pretty to me. I live in Lenoir, NC. Every
now and then, I jam with bluegrass pickers but seldom do I get to pick with some
blues musicians. This week end on Friday the 13th, I am fortunate to play along
with Pop Ferguson and his blues Revue band at the Broyhill Civic Center here in
Lenoir. It's rare that I just play the harmonica alone. Thus far this year I
will have played for money playing the harmonica. Robin Rogers a local blues and
female vocalist of the year will also perform. She too plays the harmonica. I
met her by way of Rich Baum who lives in Northern California. Anyway, if you can
make it, I am sure you will enjoy the show. David
