Greg, The trio that you heard in the courtyard is The HARPbeats with Wally
Peterman (chord), Phil Caltabellotta (chromatic), and myself (bass).

"Transfixed" is a good description for it. Frankly, it is a good word to
describe my first time time at a SPAH convention

I hope to meet you in Sacramento this year. Let's get acquainted.
