Well we had the Gig Saturday,It was different than what I was thinking,I didnt get to use my pedal,for doing the 3 songs,(guitar songs) like I wanted to,because it was messing up on the down switch,But a guitar player told me how to easily fix it when I got it home,and It works now,Which was like gold to me ,Cause i was really wondering about my pedal,And im growing fond of it for harp and guitar,I had to stick a piece of tape like a spacer on the small buttons under the foot switches,works like a charm now,I did do 3 songs on a acoustic,in between stuff,Went allright ,The people said they could hear me good,But didnt bring down the house or anything;-)

I did get a chance with a new local band that was more harp friendly than the band im in,they have a bass player drummer and the vocalist plays guitar,basic original stuff not to hard was actually a good jam,I just got though talking with the Bandleader on FB tonight and he wants me to jam with them I think I will.Cause Rainwater band never practices and we meet about once a month and do a gig.So Ill have the time.

The Rainwater band rocks I was like thinking wow after a few songs there good,And this is while im playing with them,;-)I say they because im like they dont need a harp in but maybe just a couple songs.Most the night Im like just keep a percusice feel with the drummer to a hard hard rock or im bending a long whining 3 or 4 draw to the songs it does make for a wall of sound They love it(the band) im bored to death,We finishe a song the audiece goes crazy some of them shake the hands of the guitar players im 2 feet awy just standing there invisable;-)But its all good and fun but i had more fun with the other band,I did get to jam with a old friend that has returned to the scene he goes way back on the guitar and everyone was glad he showed up,and his music is real harp friendly.He,s probelly the best blues player and definetly country player that was there,

We did songs all night long I had all ways wanted to jam with him but never had untill last night,All in all i got to jam all night to all knds of music,were doing another gig in 2 weeks ,A party for the other band thats wanting me to play some with them ,there throwing a party or something and invited Rainwater,So ill do double duty ,But its all fun
