My B day is may 16---this my present to myself----
I really should use the money for new car or new engine etc---
I will have rental car cuz rain??? and or don't like feeling trapped---want to see "deaks" etc--

If yr thinking about going----aren't sure on rental etc--we could use mine---if yr camping without car and if rain, we can use the rental for storage during rain etc
Im Bringing guitar and very small amp and mics I made--will store in car if need be---same for u if rain

will try post when I arrive at airport later-if time

at any rate we will have a car----I'll have to drive --cuz INSuranse etc

maybe small tip or somthin as Im not to proud to take tips

I finally went to spah at oklahoma, couple years back-but was hopin to jam more--besides the mic in lobby they really need a designated, all day jam room--for more rock n especially blue jams---maybe just to small inexpensive amps for guitar and harp, in the room
When I played harp with rack in hall. people sat in--

but
It felt intrusive as the second one little jam would end--I'd grab the spot they had in the hall--it felt rude
most of the impromptu jams were very folky in nature--really cool--but variety is needed
Pt being there were A LOT OF GUYS AND GALS like me who wanted to jam more rock n blues-but were kind a in the closet out of respect. But we were jonesing to jam some blues

Teach me yr stuff and I'll teach u mine--when Im not at a clinic-as I love learning as much as playing

Ill have bunch natural minor harps u can try or u can play third or both---have a few oscar melody Maj7 tuned u can try
Ill have either alcohol and water glass to quickly dip harp and rinse with water or somthin like that

Im not a primadona but playing another guys harp isn't appealing to me hence "quick clean"

If u want to learn to use nat minor harp or practice third, we can go off to side between stuff

and I'll play
Summertime Am--
Shot the sheriff Gm-
-Mr Magic Cm--
aint no sunshine Am---
back to the city Mark almond--Am to D9 all day--
-cowgirl in the sand Am--
-Dont let me be misunder stood in Am---
Robben ford " nothin to Nobody" ---
-[Back to th blues" haden sayer n thrill is gone both Cm-

believe it or not "Work song" can be played with nat minor or regular tuned--the mark ford tags are great --do yr self a favor and find the ford brothers version---usually done in Fm w/Bb--- I do Gm with "C nat minor" when using rack but reg C when cupping--I love this song
-etc

for Maj tuned
Whats goin on" marvin gaye i think
Georgia in A
etc

I hope to learn a lot from the pros and impromptu jams
U teach me yr stuff n vice versa

Learning keeps me moving forward and at my age --thats needed
Thanks
