you know that would be a good idea but I haven't been getting any more requests as of recently so when it starts to get to be too much for me I well just start posting them

I have been playing for around 7 months I would love some help but I am pretty good I play every day and I just get better at my own speed I tried to get help but they really couldn't teach me anything i didn't alredy know the man that tought me to play has played since he was 6 he is now 102 or someting like that and he knows 1,000 songs and can play every kind of harmonica small large Echo or Bass its amazing

Hey 1974dodge you first post something. I think something like a Simple Blues Riff like the 2 3 2 2 3 riff something like that or what ever you know. Some bending tips maybe its your call I am just giving some suggestions.

Hey guys, I'm learning harmonica right now and would love to know how to play "Flip, Flop, and Fly." I've only heard the terms "draw" and "blow" (and of course "bend"), but what do the s's and b's stand for? Thanks.
