Re: [Harp-L] Fatigue and Reed Life: An Objective Test?

[David Payne <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Wolf
Why thank you Mr. Wolf. That's very kind.  I work about a full-time week in making/selling/working on new ideas/researching history of harmonicas. One way or another, that will eventually that will replace my day job working in the news mines, but, I write for a living and my degree is in writing and history (I was a double major). However, I started playing harmonica before I learned how to read or write. Good thing about a writing background, is you have a little confidence to make up words for fun... Shakespeare did it all the time... Assassinate was one that immediately comes to mind he just made up on the fly. My new words have been a little less formal than W-Spear, such as "prewarify," "awesomeness" and the word I made up to apply to all the world's females as a whole... "femininity"


Thank you, Wolf. You made my day.
Dave

Just a note from this humble harmonica player-- one of
the contributors to this thread, spawned from the
"Custom Harmonicas" thread, is David Payne. David, you
have a way with words. In other words, you are a
writer besides being a musician. Not all of us are
gifted in this way.  Keep up the good (and colourful)
work. Now onwards to solving the steel versus brass
question, never forgetting that music is more
important than both!

Cheers,

Wolf Kristiansen
