It's time for either Guapo or Guapo to win.
That's why I voted for Henry Cow.

What sort of harmonica should a n00b get? |
Get a C harp, preferably Hohner but Lee Oskar is cool too. I personally like spending the extra money and getting a Blues Harp (by Hohner). It's got a wooden comb and it sounds nicer (and plays better too, you can do draw notes smoother, I find).

Don't underestimate a harmonica. It sounds really loud too. That's the main problem with wind instruments. I know what I'm talking about being a sax/flute player.

The opposite for me. I had heard many of this year's releases, so it was a hard time for me to pick.

And by the way, I saw We Will Rock You twice, loved it both times and would go back in a heartbeat

Too bad. I'll probably check it out anyways though. I've heard really good things and really bad things about it. I guess I'll have to see.

Oh you should definitely see it, if you like the Beatles in particular. Some of the covers in there are rather interesting. I heard a lot of people say they loved it too. |
I've heard some of those covers and liked them a lot.

I have three of them. My other two are on their last legs though. The new one is shinier than a Torman Maxt CD.

And a new harmonica is kinda cool, if it's any good... isn't getting that in some Xmas song too? Santa Claus Is Coming to Town? |
No idea, I avoid Christmas songs. And it's the one I wanted. A Hohner Blues Harp in C.
