Did anyone experience this? When i first started practiceing 1 hour seemed like half a day, but im about 4 weeks in and im starting to get my head around things and the hours seem to be flying by. I am well and truely hooked on this instrument, im just a little cross with myself that i picked the guitar up instead of the harp 15 years ago.oh well, better late than never.

Hello All and Happy New Year. I have two distinct but related questions. First, though, a bit about me. I'm in my late 50s and have been playing the harp for about 20 months and following the Levels of Achievement program for about 15 months. Prior to this I had absolutely no musical training. I've now completed LOA 3 and am working on LOA4. My musical ability has, I think, fairly much kept pace with the LOA program. With that said, here are my two questions: continue reading...

Anyone going to the IBC in Memphis this year?

Hi David (or others)

I have learned to play the song Blues Creepin Over Me and my husband (who is taking guitar lessons) is trying to learn to play the guitar part by ear. I was wondering if anyone knows what the chords are that moves up the scale starting around 1:47 to 1:54. (for the guitar part)

Thanks!

Any links to any christmas music out there?

Does anyone have the tabs for this song by Meatloaf? I know it's not blues but the intro is very cool and I wanted to add it elsewhere. Unfortunately, Harptabs.com doesn't show it listed and I'm not adept enough (yet?) to be able to do this on my own.

Thanks in advance,
