Glad you can make it now chipcomcast! As Mike said, I'll be there
supporting his band, plus being drunk gussing the other bands to throw
them off their game and dancing wildly and knocking over mic stands
(just kidding!!!). I'll probably always have a faded blue ball cap on
that says "Penn State Ice Hockey". Probably be the only guy with one of
those on! 

So as far as I know we have Mike Easton, Ryan Hartt, Mike Jr. Hopefully
more. As Mike said I'll have my laptop and be reporting from my home
base at the Doubletree on Beale St. Anyone wants to meet leave a message
for me at my room there, or send email. I am vowing every day to not
write anything to this list while I'm there after I've had too much
"fun". I'm really excited to go. For anyone else, there is an open blues
jam Thurs and Friday at The Blue Worm hosted by James Bonner.

I'll be there.
Krypton City Blues Revue

I wouldn't mind checking out Ryan's band. I saw him play at Wade  
Schuman's NY Reedster's
party a few years back.   I'm glad I'm not a front man that has to go  
up against him:-)

We're headed to Clarksdale first. 1001 miles by van. Will be there  
Wed. to jam at Red's and hang with Big Jack Johnson.
Probably be back there Saturday if we don't make the final cut.   
Either way the trip is an adventure and learning experience
for any blues player.

Bill Hines is going to do a report on the event.
It might be good for those of us competing to do a follow up report  
to help future harp contenders.
I knew some damn good East Coast  players that competed last year but  
didn't make the final cut.
But like the guidelines state: We are competing with the judges not  
other bands. It can come down to
a mix of moods they are in, their general taste, how many bands that  
sound alike  they heard that night
and how much politics goes into the voting.

Either way, I wish all of us competing a great outcome. Hope we can  
hookup some point along the way.
I'll be wearing my black cap with white KCBR logo on the front and  
"fathead" in red script on the back.
