Re: [Harp-L] SPAH



"The convention needs a strong local harmonica group for logistics support."

The problem with that is that harmonica clubs all seemed to be focused on
harmonica group genres and harmonica group music hasn't had much mass
popularity since the 1950s. Post-war generations are not joining or forming
local harmonica clubs in any significant numbers. Many local clubs have
gone defunct and even surviving strong local clubs, such as the St. Louis
club, seem to have an average age in the mid-70s. Harmonica players younger
than that seem satisfied to interact online or at jams without having to
form clubs.

Is there any way to replace the "strong local club" requirement, perhaps
through something like kickstarter campaigns?
