Yeah, he'd be a lot better if he wasn't so shy and straight laced. ---------- Wisdom does not always come with old age. Sometimes old age arrives alone.
Yes, he calls that the Michigan bagpipe. He also plays a harmonica backwards and can play a song with the high notes and low notes at the same time. ---------- Wisdom does not always come with old age. Sometimes old age arrives alone.
Along with Jim Rumbaugh I saw Bruce this summer at Danny Gs. After that meeting, I took his advice and purchased the 703 Zing King National Washboard. I've never had so much fun! Bruce will be at the Logan, Ohio Washboard Festival in the Spring. ---------- And I Thank You !! KCz Backwoodz Bluz
I have encountered Bruce on a number of occasions in different settings. He is really good at washboard and spoons, and can do things with harmonica that I would not have imagined possible. He has an uncommon chord/bass harmonica that he uses to good effect. He has embraced a nomadic lifestyle and presents a colorful persona dedicated to playing and listening to music. Beyond the persona he is quite knowledgeable musically as well as in other areas, and has an interesting viewpoint on life.
I enjoyed conversation and country jamming with him at SPAH in Denver this August. ----------
