Re: [Harp-L] Youtube of LD Miller with John Popper

This is coming from a former "Featured Artist of the Month" at The  Trackside 
Tavern...

Popper is an amazing player and a wonderful human being. 
 
 For you to be publicly disparaging him via rumor and snide  inappropriate 
comments is unbecoming, petty and mean spirited. It smacks of  professional 
jealousy. But... you're in different professions.
 
If you don't like his music I would suggest that you don't listen to it but  
Gawd, man, please do try to be civil.
 
It reminds me of the teacher in "Finding Forrester."

A friend  of mine told me a funny story about Popper.  Apparently, when
Traveler  were opening for the Stones, Popper kept asking to sit in with
them.   After asking several times to no avail, he finally got a word in
Keith  Richard's ear.  Keith's reply?

"Too many f*#@ing  notes!"

That is not playing.  It is "wacking off" with your  instrument.
