Pretty that he has a harmonica in his hand. Do you guys agree?
(I have to say I love this guy's style)

I think that rule #4 might not apply to harmonica players unless you are in a beginning phase. Mary Had a Little Lamb (melody) doesn't even require that.

Rule #6 seems easier for harmonica players. Don't bend the 3 so hard. Blow 5 instead of drawing it. Learn an overblow or two. Don't wail on the 4 hole draw as much. Easier or a harmonica player perhaps.

100% agree with Rule #8, I have that same problem now with both guitar and harmonica. I can only do one or two 12-bars in a row.

Rule #10 applies to us all.

The first video has good advice for someone like me, that needs to make theory into music

The second video is for someone considering making money as a musician.

Yup, I agree with this guy. There's nothing good about a 5 minute solo.

Well, I will say he has the annoying, arrogant guitar player role down pat. I had to turn him off.
