[EGS1217@xxxxxxx]

Thanks for your Youtube video, Mox.  I meant to thank you for sending  it 
earlier...it's very clever..showing a C diatonic.. colored "lights"  indicating 
the blow, draw and where the bends occur along with your  playing...where 
they're softened up, etc. 
 
 I'm surprised no one else has commented, yet.  I found it quite  ingenious...
 
Much appreciated!
 
As to Smo-Joe's video discussing his tongue-block bending on diatonic,  
here's a repeat of the YouTube video he mentioned: 'After the  Loving'.

According to  :
http://www.angelfire.com/fl4/moneychords/doublestops.html
>A double  stop, in music terminology, is the act of playing two notes 
simultaneously on a  stringed instrument, for example a violin, a viola, a cello or 
a guitar. In  performing a double stop, two separate strings are depressed 
(stopped) by the  fingers, and bowed or plucked simultaneously. Double stops are 
exclusive to  stringed instruments; for example, double-stops cannot be 
performed on wind  instruments. <

Smokey-Joe proved them wrong!

>If you were to  block one middle note and sound either ONE note on one  
side and TWO  notes on the other side (doesn't matter WHICH side) this  
is ALSO a  double stop. 

Reason? 

The 'double' is done by the webs at the  corners of your mouth.<


But then "they" went on to say  :

>Likewise, the triple stop (three strings) and quadruple stop (four  
strings). 

Collectively, double, triple and quadruple stopping are called  multiple 
stopping. <

Wow !

Triple stops?

strictly  reserved for U blockers

anybody in the room ever done  it?

Quadruple stop? 

Aagggg

(Guess this doesn't help - but  !!)
