     I generally sit with Bill and we work on harps. But this year I  
will be having a 'discussion' group. I hesitate to call it a seminar  
as that would imply that I know what I'm talking about. We will be  
covering the SJ (now known as) country tuning, how it got it's name,  
some history, and I will demonstrate some 1, 2, 3, and 4, harp tunes.  
If we have time we will have a free for all and people can bring a C  
Richter, country, or both (if they want). I will demonstrate how a  
country tune is made for those who don't need to buy one.
     We will also discuss placing wind savers in the diatonic harp.  
I will be around all week so feel free to ask anything. I probably  
won't know the answer.

See ya'all there for:   "Jammin in Joisey"
