Journal #5: Pre-Jam Plan



I read section four: Cave Jam: How to Accompany before I met up with my buddy to play a bit of music. One thing I appreciate about this book: It continues to harp on the fundamentals while mixing in a few tricks to try here and there. Something I do not appreciate: It assumes a C harp by the player, and my G harp just isn’t doing it for me. I don’t know if it is because I am confused by something inconsequential or if it really is an issue, either way: It is really frustrating. 

I’ve sort of made it my purpose to get an understanding of the harmonica through this book, and learn by playing some songs and jamming with my buddies.  I am thankful that I am going to this jam session with some other skills other than the harmonica (drums) and I’m looking forward to playing with my buddy. We use to play music a lot together when we were in high school and I sort of stopped playing afterwards. Major nostalgia is in order.
