Re: [Harp-L] re: a bluegrass experience

I'd never even HEARD bluegrass until 2 years ago when I was living in  
Arizona.... But while I was there I got to play with 4 or 5 bluegrass bands,  
while in the "west".... Most of the harmonica players playing bluegrass  that 
I heard at that time seemed to play tremolo harps, but although I am  mostly 
a "blues player" I found the bluegrass fraternity to be extremely  
welcoming to me, and to other competent musicians.
It is hard to play bluegrass well! But it is a wonderful and often a joyful 
 style of music, and I look forward to playing bluegrass on my harmonica  
again....

I  stumbled upon the Bluegrass jam this past year. And as a blues guy 
didn't  think I could keep up.  The folks were welcoming and turns out there's  
enough cross-polination between both music forms that I could at least  
participate. Definitely one of the highlights of my last  SPAH.
