Subject: RE: Button Box and Moothies : Aberdeen Nov.
I'm afraid that Cornwall to Aberdeen and back is a bit too much for this ageing harmonica man :-(
I wrote over forty articles for Harmonica World magazine about playing traditional tunes, and when I stopped doing them (because I'd stopped playing in public due to my hearing loss) George Current replaced me and did a great job. I've managed to revive my "career" recently by joining a Cornish band here in Bude who sing shanties, Cornish songs and all sorts really, and in which my tremolo harmonicas loudly and proudly help the accompaniment. I've hardly ever played tremolos up to now and it's been a learning curve, but I'm having the time of my life!
