[Harp-L] Re: American Idol - Taylor Hicks

["Jonathan Metts" <jonathan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm a grad student at Auburn University and have seen his name on many club 
marquees over the years, but I never actually heard him until the show last 
week.  I agree, his audition was fantastic and much different than the usual 
ones.  I have high hopes for the guy.  I hadn't heard that he plays harp, 
but that just makes it all sweeter, eh?  I really hope he plays on a future 
episode.  I've often dreamed of auditioning for the show (hey, I can sing) 
and pulling a harp out of my pocket for an instrumental break.  It would set 
you apart from the crowd, but I suspect that it may be against the audition 
rules to play an instrument.
