Matter of fact, make sure your next Windy City trip overlaps a Monday night and visit us in B1!<br /><br />Joe, Eric, and Jim are so grateful for all the harp fans who came out, especially folks like you that came all the way from the Lone Star State! <br /><br />I had never heard Steve Cohen play either, so that was a nice treat. I found his site, so you can check that out: <br /><br />http://www.myspace.com/harmonicastevecohen<br /><br />Thanks for the shout out, too.

Enjoyed meeting Kirk Manley--too short of chat, regrettably, but the wife and son were headed out the door to catch the "L" back to the loop. Steve Cohen's guest spot was certainly an added bonus. Loved it! Loved Chicago! Tell all those guys that they have fans down in Texas.<br /><br />See ya--<br />Ricky BRicky Bushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15861574330175082978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212608317205071324.post-89538714981882799742009-12-15T20:42:15.999-06:002009-12-15T20:42:15.999-06:00NEWS FLASH!

We are so lucky to have Joe as a weekly teacher here in the Windy City for all the reasons you mentioned. The most amazing thing? We never stop learning from him...and never graduate, as he says!<br /><br />By the way, I'm not familiar with the harmonica scene in Australia. Who are some of today's top players there?<br /><br />Here's to the harp...<br /><br />- Kirk Manley (one of Joe's students)The B1 Blues Crewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15094758206823590276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212608317205071324.post-20103888767555422742009-05-19T19:13:56.769-05:002009-05-19T19:13:56.769-05:00You guys sure are lucky to meet Joe Filisko (almos...You guys sure are lucky to meet Joe Filisko (almost) every week. I met him at the SPAH festival in 2005. This was a big deal for me, as I had to come from Australia.<br /><br />His teach in at the SPAH convention was a highlight. As you no doubt know, he is considered the leading harmonica customiser anywhere.Tony Eyershttp://www.harmonicatunes.comnoreply@blogger.com
