[Harp-L] Harpers' International Giglist Update as of 12/22/04 - Part 1 of 2



Those wishing to be included in the Harpers' International Gig
Listings, or who have additions/deletions since last Wednesday's
internet post, please forward updates to me by

DEADLINE: 12 NOON EST WEDNESDAY

for next Wednesday's internet post. Thank you.

Listings received after noon on Wednesday may or may not be
included in the weekly update to the various internet harmonica
forums at Harp-L, Harp Chat and Harp Talk.  Also, listings received
after the deadline will not be available to the American Harmonica
Newsmagazine Editor until the following Wednesday (one week
later).  So those desiring to be included in the AHN need to get
their listings to me by the deadline noted above, for a better chance
of making the AHN publishing deadline.

Email: bassharp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
This list is designed for, and dedicated to, the promotion of
harmonica artists, whether soloists, band leaders, or sidemen.
With apologies to other groups, we are not able to accept
listings for groups who do not feature, or include harp players,
due to space limitations.

Due to time constraints, we are unable to access all the various
artist websites for itinerary updates, or the Pollstar listings,
and depend on each artist to submit directly to me.  Please allow
me this consideration, and thank you all very much.

BIRMINGHAM'S HEART OF THE SOUTH HARMONICA MUSIC FESTIVAL
Birmingham, Alabama
May 11-13, 2006

We ARE going to have a harmonica festival in Birmingham, Alabama - 2006!

Instead of The Dixie Harmonica Festival which is what we called it in 1989, this will be
Birmingham's Heart of the South Harmonica Music Festival.
That contains the Heart of Dixie idea without the flash word.
We want this to be a real mix of the music of the south.


We hope to represent all of these harmonica/music styles.
Classic Harmonicats
Blue Grass (We have verbal commitment from Buddy Greene of the Gaither Music Reunions
and Jerry Ryan of "Three On A String" and Tommy "Toes" Bounds)
Country Swing (Charlie McCoy has given verbal commitment)
Dixieland "New Orleans Style" Jazz
Traditional Spirituals
Zydeco
Delta Blues
Southern Gospel


We had 300 in attendance in '89. We are expecting more in '06.
There are several facilities available to us.
We are in the process of choosing the best one for our needs.

SHARPS - Shelby Harmonica Players Society - J. A. Hitchcock (Director)
A safe and fun place to play your harmonica among friends - (since 1991)

More info as it becomes available
