Hi there--
I played an event at PetCo Stadium in San Diego last night for Prudential
Real Estate, so we played "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" to death--it was a
meet and greet situation, so they didn't care that we hammered the tune over
and over.
Two guitars and acoustic bass, and we all sang . . .
I modified an existing tuning to be able to play it on short harp. It is G7
blow, C6 draw, and every octave is the same.
Here is a solo video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbhLfCUGcTY
Most of this tune can be played on regular tuned diatonic, albeit in the
middle octave (I play this here in the low octave, this tuning is the same
in the second octave--it's a modified IV6/V6, the Powerbender second
octave). Only one note must be played with an overblow, but here it is a
draw bend.
It was noisy on the back patio, lots of traffic on the street below, so I
worked the camera pretty close.
Enjoy!
Gnarly
