There is a wealth of great harp information throughout this forum. All one has to do is decide what knowledge is needed and in all probability it can be found here. If not, then a question posed to the membership is likely to produce a solution, or at least opinions will be offered.
Just ignore the sniping, name calling, back biting posts that tend to drag down the spirit of the forum. There are plenty of bipolar or otherwise mentally maljusted individuals that love more company for their misery. They'll even go so far as to create multiple user names under different e-mail accounts and write posts that take up for themselves or post messages for the sake of keeping an argument progressing. I've seen it on other forums and I'm seeing it here.
Don't get sucked in. Just accentuate the positive. Seek and ye shall find.

*high-five*. Do not feed the gossip and drama. Let it fester where it may and let's use this for the intended purpose and learn/share musical ideas.

The two post above hit a home run in my book ! Many people like to start flame wars and say bad things about others JUST to get them upset and start something (it is better to just walk away from problem people in real life that want to drag you down ) . BEE POSITIVE and pass the good KARMA !

Are you saying Chris and Christelle are the same person?

No, not really. They don't look anything alike. No, I'm talking about trolls or a close relative, who we all know pop into a forum just to stir things up and then move on. They may re-appear under an entirely moniker and get everyone is a tizz again. Most everyone can recognize the obvious trolls, but some are better at playing the game and fool us into getting our nastys out.

Right on JTThirty!
The other day I picked up a harp and decided to work on the Sonny Terry riff that was being discussed a few months ago. The last time I tried it I was kind of stumbling around with it, but now muscle memory kicked in and all of a sudden I can play it like I've been doing it all my life.
The point I'm trying to make is, if it weren't for Adam, I probably wouldn't even have bothered to learn that riff, but now I have a new weapon in my arsenal.
The same goes for Whammer Jammer and lots of other lessons on Adam's channel.
I'm sure that this is what Adam meant when he said he was going to "give it all away". Not all this ridiculously childish sniping thats been going on lately. Grow up people!

Amen, Bluzlvr--
By the way, I don't drink any longer, so I wasn't drunk when I typed my last response. I just read all the typos and I guess I needed one more cup of coffee or one less cup before I wrote it. Anyway--
