The #1 FAQ when I play in the street (play my concertina, that is):

   Innocent Bystander: "What do you call that thing?"

   Free Reed Rocker: "I call it George."

The #1 IAQ:

   Innocent Bystander: "Do you take lessons?"

   Free Reed Rocker: "No, but I do take tips!"

RE: Anglo and English concertinas (work well for certain types of song, have to be careful not to play too loud)

It's hard to play The Clash, The Pogues, and Social Distortion too loudly.
