Subject: Here's to the breaking in of new instruments!
Under the category of 'What was I thinking?', I'm playing my new Kortier Irish 34 string acoustic-electric harp tomorrow morning with the church choir (New Year's Carol by Benjamin Britten)....after a late New Year's Eve night out at Hugh's Room with friends - a gourmet 5 course meal followed by a wacky energetic bloodmoving concert by Betty & the Bobs. I'm still not used to the new harp's string spacing, and the strings are flurocarbon not nylon like I'm used to, and the whole thing is powered by an amp of all things! Glorious sound, I must admit, but what WAS I thinking?
Egad.

Happy new year, and here's to the breaking in of all of our new instruments!!!!
