My band was invited to a local TV News show. Big fun.
I can't sing a lick but I so wanted to be in a band. So, I figure just offer a few guys jobs and see what happens. We have 8 gigs booked and I feel as young as my bandmates.
Woooo. Hooooo! That was great Harpdude! You are making it happen! This is just awesome. Watching your inception of this idea through fruition has been great. I feel like some kind of proud relative or something.
thats cool,Your doing good ,and sounded great,Singing drummers are hard to find,Trips me out cause drums are like a mystery to me,and to be able to sing and play,I would think would be hard. ---------- Hobostubs
I did think I was doomed for waiting on a magical blues band to pop up and invite me in. Fronting a band as a non-singing harp player is unusual....but why not.
These young guys are happy to have someone that does not mind doing the work...bookings, promotion,etc..etc..
All these guys know several blues songs.
THe only person that can fire me now is my wife!..lol
lol..I cannot grow facial hair. Way to thin and patchy. I really appreciate the kind words from everyone. As a lifetime stutterer, I can tell you that doing the whole segment was a huge accomplishment for me. The harmonica has really brought me out of my shell. My self-confidence has never been better.
I will always be grateful to the forum and it's members for such awesome encouragement and guidance.
Hey Duane, very happy for you hope things keep getting better for you & the band. Did I ever Email those pictures 2 you I took of you and Ted last year at HCH? Mike
