Dude, Can I Borrow Your Harmonica?
Friday, January 30, 2009

Had a good time playing the CasHank jam out at Buttermilk in Park Slope, Brooklyn last night. "Tell It To Me," which Alex Battles implored me to sing, was particularly raucous.

Beforehand a dude sought me out in the crowded, stuffy bar and said, "Hey, you're the harmonica guy. Can I borrow your harmonica?"

"Nope, sorry," I said.

Dude looked at me like I was kind of a jerk then staggered over to a wobbling blond and mushed his tongue into her mouth.

I thought to myself, "And that's WHY I'm not gonna' let you borrow my harmonica!"
