Anyone play a harmonica? Is it difficult?

I played trumpet at my old high school but then when I went to a gifted school I just didn't have time to play. Too much studying to do and little free time but it sure is going to help me through college since I am starting with 21 transfer credits as a freshman and have already taken all college level courses for my 11th and 12th grade years

Some people call me a pianist. Not sure why. I can't play the piano

I think gn2 plays the gnarly flute

I understand you you is a virtuoso on the pink oboe.

strat hss..........

gretsch 'bo diddley'

Guitar (Epi. Les Paul), bass, piano and handbells! Love the Bo Diddley, and the Ibanez has a beautiful finish.

I do, but not like I used to. For a few years, made my living was a union musician in LA and Las Vegas. Toured a lot, and opened for some oldies groups (opened for the Coasters..) ahem, a '50s' group. I still 'pick' these things up and keep 'em tuned in case I run into another old fart that plays. I used to be surrounded by musicians, now, none of the younger guys I work with play.


I suspect my next tour will be with Jimi and Stevie Ray Vaughn...

I played trumpet in high school too... ended my career at 18 in 1987 with a high E and a hernia!

Lol. I left my old school after 10th grade to go to a gifted school. My musical experience wasn't good enough for that level. Plus I studied so much

The Classical Guitar. Can you name all it's parts?

Ok, I have named all it's parts...

Is Jennie an ex or could this be used as evidence to blackmail you?

Very Good Mitch! You're a clever one and a "nut!" Great response!

So....I guess the answer is NO. No harmonica players. Okay. Well I don't play one either..... but I have one. It came with a how to play starter book. I jut dug the thing out of a storage bin. It's got my attention now. I think I have enough wind to play it, I just don't want to hyperventilate
I also came across some other goodies: an old 60's guitar strap, a cowbell, set of drum ticks, two tamborine's, maracas (from South of the Border in the 60's), tuning pipe, picks for my guitar, Grandpa's mandolin, and my old Shure microphone & stand. Well I should just say that ALL this stuff is old. No amplifier anymore, I gave that antique to my Nephew who is presently working for Randy Jackson (as stage production manager). He's an amazing drummer. Hmm...I may post a bit of his drumming if I can find the clip. Nuff said, I talk too much sum times (most times)

2yous: did you find my mistake(s)? gn2 will spot em first...I bet!

Harmonicas?
No, they suck. No, wait...they blow.

(sound great, though!)

Drum clip. Nephew playing with popular group, Cage the Elephant. The groups drummer was ill at the time and they pulled our boy in. Cage the Elephant opened for the Foo Fighters that night. Color me proud
