Maybe you've already seen this (it's from 2007). If you haven't (like me), you should really check it out!

I met James at SPAH a couple of years in a row. He is a) really nice guy b) funny as hell and c) an AMAZING player.

He tunes his harp so 1 blow = 1 draw (and maybe 2, 2+ as well?) and, with tongue blocking, can keep those notes going (like a bagpipe drone) 100% of the time while he plays a melody on the other side of his mouth. The guy has to have the most flexible and well controlled tongue of anyone I've ever heard.
