Re: [Harp-L] new harp case, cool design

[David Payne <dmatthew@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, Joe, technically, you only need ONE chromatic, nicht wahr? 
But there are a lot of diatonic players who carry a chromatic or two around. I've usually got three in the case I made out of the backpack I used to use when I was a photographer. Like Peter Parker, only I had no superpowers to go with it.

I saw Rupert on his return trip from Buckeye and he showed it to me, I thought it was cool and my coolness standards are pretty high, I'd rate on a coolness scale approximately eight Fonzerellis.

Then there's space for a mic, mic cord and you can tuck a chromatic in there too. It has an optional shoulder strap.

See, see, see how you guys are. The case is 'Diatonicentric'. Notice where it says 'You can tuck a chromatic in there too'. I mean, what does that MEAN. You CAN ...but you don't HAVE too. Or what about you can tuck 'A' chromatic. Only ONE? In other words, you can pack a plethora of Diabolos, but only ONE chromo. Sounds like someone is shorting me a few chromos here  lolol.

I'm gonna picket for a 'chromo QUOTA'. Like (for example) mandatory one chromo for every 4 diatonics. And what about that strap? Are you making fun of me because I used to be a shoe shine boy? and carried my shoe box over my shoulder?
