Last night I went to a blues jam but wanted to have the option of
inconspicuously bolting early if I didn't feel like playing so only took 3
harps along: C, D and A. A harp playing buddy of mine was there and asked
if I wanted to do the dueling harmonica thing with him(which I've always
contended came from the movie Beligerence). I told him I only had three
harps, told him which ones, and told him that I almost brought an F as
well. He pulled the 4 harps he had with him out of his pocket: C, D, A and
F. We both had a good laugh. I thought it ironic since this thread had been
on-list yesterday.
