Subject: Re: another first time - (Playing in Minor)

I have something to share here. I had a similar experience when one of
the learned musicians I jammed
with asked me to play in E minor. I had a A harp and I knew I could play
E blues in the second position.
This pal of mine pointed out that the E minor he was referring to is
basically a E major with a flatted 3rd.
So I simply played the A harp in second position with a double bend on
hole 3 draw instead of a single
bend as would be the case in the Blues scale. And this seemed to go off
well.

Was I right in what I did? It sounded alright to me!
And need I say any advise is more than welcome!
