RE: [Harp-L] Great Toots Photos



Actually, Toots is snapping his fingers, of course, something only Diatonic players can do regularly, since button-pushers gotta use both hands, and are thus hobbled from such things as sound shaping and finger snapping and butt-pinching and knee slapping and knob-turning and . . . . . . . Ya, we diatonic players know all y'all button-pushers are jealous, but it's okay, right, Howard?

ps: yeah, if I COULD play chromatic, I'd be singin' a different tune. . .hell, if I could sing, I'd be playing a different tune, and if I could play diatonic half as good as most of y'all, I'd be playin' all sorts of tunes . . . but you talkin stuff about 10-holers got me all riled up!

I like the one where he's giving "the finger" to the diatonic players.
