This has nothing to do directly with British cars, though we've
all had the occasion to sing the blues somewhere along the way
in pursuit of our automotive passions.
If you are looking for a way to spend a saturday afternoon that doesn't
involve scraping your knuckles, consider learning to play a song on
the harmonica and making it to Ogden on saturday, May 12th. Brad
Wheeler, a KRCL blues programmer and one half of the band Legendary
Porch Pounders is putting together Harmonica Army 2.
The Guiness record for the world's largest harmonica ensemble is 1800
people. Last year we tried to bust this record, but only managed to gather
up about 1250 folks. Shucks. So there's another attempt coming up in
a couple of weeks. Check out the info at http://utahblues.org if you,
your kids, scout troop, knitting club, etc. might be looking for a unique
way to spend an afternoon.
Hmmm, I thought there was another web page with more info, and how
to play "When the Saints go Marching In" on the harmonica, the tune of
choice for this event. I'll have to check on that.
