Can't say I agree but it's nice to see he's gearing up for a load of shows in August... although, I don't see Philly, haha.

Ryan you should come to his show in Bethlehem at Musikfest! Its free and probably not too much farther for you than going to philly. I'll be there for sure. Rob Paporazzi is going to be at Musikfest too if you can't make it there for Jason.

Is he still playing Musikfest? It's on his website, but there was that newspaper article that said he canceled. I was planning on going, but I don't wanna drive out to PA on a tuesday for Heart.

He isn't on this schedule either.

Looking at Jason's touring schedule it looks unlikely that he'll be at SPAH : ( But I guess that's totally understandable considering all the health and financial issues he's had recently. It would have been great if he could go, even if it was just for a day or two, but I understand it's going to take a lot of work to put a new band together and start touring.

On the upside, now that his band has changed, his touring shedule has also changed, and it looks like he'll be performing in my area in the near future (his old touring shedule didn't have him scehduled to play in my area at all in the foreseeable future, nor had he been here in the past couple years).

I'm coming to Bean Blossom, too. Nothing official, really. No gig at the festival. But I'll be there, and if anybody is putting on a party and would like me to do my one-man-band thing, I'll be happy to do that.

From what I recall reading Jason won't be at Bethlehem Musikfest. I do see that Rod Piazza is listed for Sunday August 8th but who knows what time.

Boris!

I ain't messin with nuthin ;)

All I know is that Hohner BluesBand Key of C, purchased in Northern Ireland, sounded (I lost it lol) amazing. Great tone and volume, was my favourite harp until I dropped it on the beach. Some crazy kid with a metal detector will happen upon it someday, maybe...

Blues Band harmonicas are a staple at the Cracker Barrel Restaurants on the Interstates, I guess so kids can drive their parents nuts in the back seat sucking and blowing. only in the key of C They have them by the Bins full. Everyonce in a while you can also find a "Pocket Pal" complete with Jon Gindick instruction book.

I have one bluesband. It's a bit better than silverstar. After customizing, I can control all overbends, but tone, especially 2-3 draw suck.

Since I live in Bethlehem, looks like I will be spending some time at Musikfest. For those who have never been, it is a pretty decent venue. I actually did not see Rob Paparazzi on the schedule, but Rod Piazza is there on 8/8.
