Wow! That's a long ways away from "Rain On the Roof" or "Nashville Cats." Cool stuff.

Zal's got some 'verb goin' on that!
I met John Sebastian at the NAMM Show in Nashville when I was sales manager for Suzuki Musical Instruments. They make some NICE harmonicas. He walked up, introduced himself as "John", and asked if he could check out some harps. I ended up giving him several, including a high-end chromatic, to keep. His Dad was a famous CLASSICAL harmonica player. How many of those can there be? I think I'll work on becoming the best known CLASSICAL Rick 12-string player.
I picked up a guitar and started playing "Nashville Cats"-seemed appropriate. He told me that "1352 guitar players in Nashville" was a made up number, but a graduate student in Statistics at Vanderbilt did a survey and concluded that there wer, in fact, 1348. today, there are that many per block, and "they all can pick it twice as better than I will".

Bonus "Nashville Cats" questions:
1. How many mothers are there in Nashville?
2. What DON'T they do?
3. What DOESN'T make them uptight?
