Re: [Harp-L] Re: Harmonica Ensembles in America
I've met you,Vern. You're not a day over 50 -- between your ears.
You make some valid points. Most of the participants are ~70 because
most of them at the events I have attended have been chromatic
harmonica players. Diatonic harmonicas are attractive to a younger
demographic.

That is great news for the harmonica!
Every year the number of people 70 and over grows and becomes a
higher percentage of the population. Furthermore, my grandfather
gave me my first harmonica and there are more and more
grandfathers. Demographics are on our side.
Now, guess my age.
