This list is designed for, and dedicated to, the promotion of
harmonica artists, whether soloists, band leaders, or sidemen.
With apologies to other groups, we are not able to accept
listings for groups who do not feature, or include harp players,
due to space limitations.

Due to time constraints, we are unable to access all the various
artist websites for itinerary updates, or the Pollstar listings,
and depend on each artist to submit directly to me.  Please allow
me this consideration, and thank you all very much.

Please use the following layout format:
Date (Month/Day), City, State (or Country), Venue
e.g.:

01/05   W Hollywood, CA - House Of Blues
12/31   Sarnia, ON, CANADA - Huey's Junkyard

Please submit all lists in English.

7th HARMONICA SHINDIG
March 23, 2002

Southern Hotel
Nell Lane, Chorlton-cum-Hardy, 
Manchester, UK

1:30-4:30pm

An afternoon devoted to all aspects of the harmonica, hosted by Mat
Walklate

The event will include demonstrations and discussions of the different 
styles of  harmonica playing in Blues, Jazz and Irish traditional music 
and the makes and models of harmonicas used, focussing principally on 
diatonic, chromatic and tremolo instruments.

For the first time there will be showcase performances by 
blues bands 
The Moochers and 
Depot, 
Irish traditional bands 
The Gallery and 
Shannagh 
and jazz group 
The Andy Pyatt Quartet, 
all of course featuring the harmonica.

There will be sessions throughout the afternoon which will be open to
all 
instrumentalists and an accomplished backing band will be present to 
support the players. 

As before there will be a great deal of harp-related printed material,
catalogues 
and information about harmonica services and societies for people to
take away, 
and I will be available to answer questions and give advice.

Trade stands will be present allowing people to purchase harmonicas
should 
they wish to.

This will be the seventh Shindig I have organised and I am sure that,
like its 
predecessors, it will provide a friendly forum for meeting other harp
players 
and learning more about the instrument.

Entry is £3 and includes a raffle with harmonicas, donated by Hering
Hohner 
and Suzuki as prizes!

HARMONICA JAM CAMP FOR BLUES & COUNTRY
May 16-18, 2003

Crown Plaza Hotel
Irvine,  CA

A Limited Enrollment Weekend Intensive
for Diatonic Harmonica Players,
with a Focus on You, and the Joys of Jamming.

Friday 5:30 pm to 9pm
Saturday 10 am to 9 pm,
Sunday 10:30 am to 2:30 pm

Taught and facilitated by Jon Gindick and friends.
$295 after March 15
$279 with early registration
http://www.gindick.com/Engine/Shopping/catalog.asp?store=6&category=256

Harmonica Jam Camp for Blues & Country is a two-day seminar with world
renown, master player/teacher Jon Gindick that focuses on YOU. Your
Mission
with Jon and Jam Camp team? Identifying your next level, and helping you
achieve it and beyond in two days of intense teaching, learning,
practice
and jamming. 

When you arrive Friday night or Saturday morning, you will play for Jon,
get
feedback, evaluation, and also tell us what you¹re looking for in the
seminar. (this can also be done by phone, prior.) Together we will
discuss
your goals and problems, and identify your next level and the learning
techniques that will get you there. Then, with Jon and other musicians,
we
will jam until it¹s time to go to bed, or they throw us out.

On Saturday and Sunday, we will spend focused, repetitive,
skill-developing
time in exercises and practice circles. As each day goes on, there will
be
three or four classes on different topics, each relevant to players at
all
levels. We will study and practice tone, embouchure, articulation,
hands,
tongue-blocking, I-IV-V chord progressions, chugging, jamming theory,
cross
harp melody, cross harp riffs, position playing 1-6 plus 12, the harp
player
as singer, how to learn, how to teach, how to set up a band,
amplification,
learn to play songs line by line, and you will jam, jam, jam.

A word of warning: Jon plays harmonica and guitar at the same time and
teaches in jam circles. In a jam circle, we go around the room, each
playing
with Jon and his guitar. We play as a group. We play solos. We create
rhythms. We sing. We become musical. If you are closet player, this is
your
time to ³come on out² in a supportive, structured environment. We have
two
big rooms plus a ³pre event² area at the Crown Plaza hotel in which we
can
separate and yet still be together. To assure sanity and attention, the
enrollment is limited to thirty-five people. It will be stimulating, but
structured so you can hear yourself think and play. This inexpensive
harmonica jam camp experience is about YOU and the joy of jamming.

Pricing: $279 if you enroll before March 15.  $295 after.
