Toots Thielemans concert in Louisville, KY on Feb 28, 2010 (Chris Pierce)

...

I saw no mention of this, so thought I'd let everyone know.

This is one of only two US appearances for Mr Thielemans this year.

FYI,

Chris

Clarksdale, MS

The Shack Up Inn and Hopson Plantation
Clarksdale, MS

$995.00 for seminar only
Lodging and Food Very Cheap

A Limited Enrollment 5 Day Jamming and Learning Vacation
for Diatonic Harmonica Players--
with a Focus on You, the Fundamentals of Blues
and the Joys of Jamming.

with Jon's Team of Performing and Teaching Coaches
 * Hash Brown of Dallas, blues guitar, and harmonica, and vocals
 * RJ Harman of Denver, blues harmonica
 * Cheryl Arena of Dallas, blues harmonica and vocals
 * Brian Purdy of Florida blues harmonica
 * Adam Gussow of Oxford, Mississippi, blues harmonica and guitar
 * Guitar Mikey and The Real Thing of Clarksdale, Mississippi
 * Jon Gindick of Los Angeles, blues guitar, harmonica and vocals

PLUS about 30 fellow "Campers" from all over the world.

If you are flying, you will probably want to fly into Memphis, get a ride, or rent a car
to drive down "The Blues Highway" (Highway 61) about 1-1/2 hours to Clarksdale.
(We will help you find a drive-mate.)

The Shack Up Inn has one and two bedroom shacks and bins. The facilities all have refrigerators and small kitchens.
If you get a two bedroom shack, and share with another camper, you can lower your rate to about $40 a night.
The single shacks and "bins" are about twice that. Still a great price and an unforgettable experience.
http://www.shackupinn.com

We love all levels of harmonica players.
Raw Beginners: we have a strong program for you, including preseminar phone lesson.
Advanced and intermediates: we offer separate classes on separate levels.

Jam Camp has evolved toward more of an emphasis on total musicality through harp playing, songwriting and singing,
with lots and lots of jamming.
By total musicality, we mean, helping our campers "swing" when they play the harp and making them more confident,
more rhythmic, more lyrical, more adventurous, more "listening,” more relaxed, more ear-trained, more in touch with
their “inner musican.”

Ten Ways We Focus On Your Harping:
 1. Pre seminar phone consultation. (E-mail me to make appointment)
 2. One to one Lessons at Camp.
 3. Small jamming classes and groups for your level with guitar players and band.
 4. Confidence building live jamming atmosphere.
 5. Great student and teacher/room ratio.
 6. Custom Beginners Program.
 7. Custom Personal Advanced Program
 8. Opportunities to learn from a variety of great players.
 9. Immersion is the best way to learn, especially when it's fun and focused and varied.
 10. Limited Enrollment lets us focus on you.

BLUES FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 2010 BLUES HALL OF FAME INDUCTEES
May 5, 2010
Memphis, TN

Memphis Marriott Downtown
Memphis, TN

The induction ceremony will be held on Wednesday, May 5, at the Memphis Marriott Downtown in Memphis, Tennessee,
the night before the 31st Blues Music Awards. Plans are underway now to individually honor each of the inductees that night.

CHARLIE MUSSELWHITE

One of the most prominent harmonica players of the past several decades, Charlie Musselwhite burst out of the vibrant
Chicago blues scene in the 1960s to become a trendsetter for a new musical generation in California.

Born in Kosciusko, Mississippi, on Jan. 31, 1944, Musselwhite began playing harp and guitar in Memphis, where he sought
out blues veterans Will Shade, Furry Lewis, and others. He shared a Mississippi and Memphis background with many of the
bluesmen he later met in Chicago and became a friend and disciple of harmonica maestro Big Walter Horton, among others.

Finding a receptive audience for his music on the West Coast upon the release of his debut album, Stand Back! in 1967,
Musselwhite quickly relocated to San Francisco and has lived in the area ever since although tours have taken him around the
globe.

Thousands of performances and dozens of albums later, Musselwhite remains a well-liked, world-famous, and highly influential
musician whose work has been honored with numerous Blues Music Awards and Grammy nominations. Still drawn back to his
roots, Musselwhite has become a familiar figure at events in Mississippi and Memphis, and has received a Mississippi Governor's
Award for Excellence in the Arts as well as a Brass Note on Beale Street's Walk of Fame.

HILL COUNTRY HARMONICA:  A NORTH MISSISSIPPI BLUES HARP HOMECOMING
May 22-23, 2010
Waterford, MS

Foxfire Ranch
1465 Old Oxford Road
Waterford, MS 38685
(50 miles south of Memphis International Airport)
http://www.foxfireexperience.net/

Registration fee:  $150.  $50 for non-playing spouse, partner, or friend’s.  No charge for children 12 and under.
FREE on-site camping.  Deluxe campsites and inexpensive motels nearby.

A two-day intensive retreat for blues harmonica students (all levels) and their friends, featuring lectures, workshops,
jam sessions, and concerts with some of the finest traditional and contemporary players in the world.
From mid-morning through midnight, both days.

Featuring:
 * Billy Branch (Grammy nominated Chicago blues harp master)
 * Adam Gussow with Charlie Hilbert (Satan&  Adam harpist, Nat Riddles’ guitarist)
 * Terry “Harmonica” Bean (one-man band – a Mississippi legend)
 * Billy Gibson (Blues Music Award winner, 2009:  “Instrumentalist – harmonica”)
 * Brandon Bailey (Orpheum Star Search winner – teenage harp-box innovator)
 * Bill “Howl-N-Madd” Perry (incredible hill country guitar&  vocals)

 * NYC swing/harp sensation Ron Sunshine will be in residence with a full selection of deluxe vintage harp mics.
 * A "harp amp throwdown" for gear-heads in which we play our way through a series of vintage tube amps while you judge for tone.

A Statement of Purpose:
The blues aren't dead, and they're not dying.  They don't need to be "kept alive."  They are alive, and flourishing.  They live in local
communities - such as the one that recreates itself every Sunday summer evening in the blues barn at Foxfire Ranch - and they
live in countless virtual communities on the World Wide Web.  They live on YouTube.  They live in Mississippi.  They live in the
Chicago clubs.  They live on ModernBluesHarmonica.com and Harp-L and a dozen other forums. They live on Beale Street.  They
live in the passion of the musician/teachers we've assembled here, and they live in your passion, our collective passion, for the harmonica.

Hill Country Harmonica is an attempt to bridge those worlds and create a face-to-face community of harmonica players for a couple
of days in the hills of North Mississippi.  If you've been inspired at a distance by the playing and teaching of the blues performers on
our roster, or if you think you've seen everything and want to be inspired all over again, we urge you to think about joining us for a
remarkable weekend of learning, grooving, playing, risking, growing, and bluesing it up.

EUROPEAN BLUES&  MASTERCLASS
August 3-8, 2010
Munster, FRANCE

Le Kleebach
Munster, Alsace, France

with

 * Steve Baker (harmonica)
 * Dave Goodman (guitar)
 * Martin Roettger (cajon)

In August 2009 Steve put on the first masterclass in the "House of Music" Le Kleebach in cooperation with
local organiser Robert "Sunnyside" Koch. The event more than fulfilled expectations and the positive feedback
from students has led to a sequel in 2010.

Munster is in Alsace, the easternmost province of France which borders onto Germany along the Rhine, and
Le Kleebach proved to be a perfect setting. The beautifully located house has several well-appointed seminar
rooms and can accomodate up to 70 people.

It also offers an open-air stage for the instructors' concert and an outdoor terrace with no immediate neighbours
which is perfect for sessions until late in the evening.

The price for four full days of tuition and five nights accomodation (full board and lodging) is an unbeatable
549 euros all inclusive.

This event offers a great opportunity to enjoy a few days of hand-made music and relaxed living in beautiful surroundings.

I'm not a metallurgist, but doesn't chrome contain nickel as one  of it's
alloy components?  Chrome covers therefore may not be suitable  for someone
with a nickel allergy.  Another non-chrome matic is the  Hohner CBH.  Long
out of production but a nice instrument, there  are 12 and 16 hole versions.

I have heard rumors that the 270 Deluxe (which I love) has longer reeds (for
a given pitch) than the regular 270s.

Does anyone know if this is true? If so, which of the Hohner chromatics
currently have longer reeds? And do any of the diatonics have longer than
usual reeds (like maybe the Crossover)? I tried to take some apart to
examine, but I did not get a good "read" on the situation.

Furthermore, do the Manjis or Harrison harps have different reed dimensions?

Thanks for any info.

Dave Barrett has launched his new teaching website called bluesharmonica.com and it is loaded with all the great teaching videos you will ever need along with interveiws and plenty of bonus material. There is really nothing that compares to this anywhere on the net.

Everyone who can, on SATURDAY April 3rd 2010, get themselves down to:

The Spring Harmonica Festival.

It's going to be at:

Harry Griffen Park Amphitheatre,
9550 Milden Street - (adjacent to Grossmont High  School)
La Mesa, CA 91942, USA

http://www.springharpfest.org

This is going to be a wonderful music event, featuring  harmonica players
from all over the place.

Even that English blues harp player John "Whiteboy"  Walden will be there,
performing some of his music.

(That's me folks..)

Those of you who often wondered if John Walden can  actually play the
harmonica, as well as just talking about it on Harp-L, come on  down!

See you all at the Spring Harp Fest!

John "Whiteboy" Walden
Cebu City
Philippines

Hey All

I have access to a CNC milling machine for precision cutting etc& was wondering if any of you out there might have the CAD drawings/measurements for MB/GM and hopefully Seydel 1847 combs.

I'd like to experiment with making my own combs out of various materials...& hopefully revamp some of my old harps& turn them into instruments once more.

If any of you can help I'd greatly appreciate it.

Kindest regards

Dave Ferguson

Dave Barrett has launched his new teaching website called bluesharmonica.com and it is loaded with all the great teaching videos you will ever need along with interveiws and plenty of bonus material. There is really nothing that compares to this anywhere on the net.

Used combs - can they be salvaged? I have a bunch on order from Buddha and
some spares for the time being, but can you sanitize and restore a used
comb? I have one that I sanded down and sealed for practice, but I am not
sure how much I want to play it, lol. I have another one in that situation
too.

Used Marine Bands - If you have any you want to get rid of, sell, trade,
etc. let me know. I have lots of scrap reed plates, but not many MB parts
besides a couple of extra combs. So even if you just have covers (Sp 20
covers would work) or reed plates that's cool too...if the reeds/covers are
in good shape but the comb is awful, that's ok.  I'd prefer not to have to
spend a week on cleaning years worth of gunk from reedplates, however.

I know Hohner does this across seas, but if there is a place you can buy
reeds or covers out there, I'd like that info too.

Thanks!

Things are going, and FAST... I've dropped the prices on all the remaining
mics and I am taking best offers on all the amps except the Model 2.


*Epiphone Valve Junior* combo. Jensen Mod 8 speaker, vintage 12AU7 preamp tube. Excellent cosmetic and working shape. $85

*Harmony H304A* combo. 10" speaker, circuit modded by Sonny Jr. specifically
for harp. Round, fat, ripping tone. Speaker outs installed. $350 and worth
every penny.
I just communicated with Sonny Jr. yesterday... this amp was re-built from
the ground up, totally gone over and professionally hot-rodded. It's
killer... plug and play tone
for days.

*Kalamazoo Model 2* combo. VERY good condition, awesome tone. $250 FIRM.
(NOTE to those that responded to my trade listing: this offer is for a CASH

Hi gang, sorry if this ends up being a duplicate posting. I sent this via the Google Group earlier, but still haven't seen it come across yet (4 hours later).

I saw no mention of this, so thought I'd let everyone know.

At the University of Louisville, in Louisville, KY:

* Toots Thielemans with pianist Kenny Werner at 3 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 28.

"All concerts are at the School of Music's Margaret Comstock Concert Hall unless noted otherwise. Tickets for the Wednesday through Sunday shows vary from $5 to $25 depending on night of performance.

For ticket information, call (502) 852-6907."

I checked and tickets for this concert are $25.

This is one of only two US appearances for Mr Thielemans this year.

FYI,

Chris
