Can't say I've seen too many harpists at my local blues jam.

I wouldnt mind seeing that harpist -- sin ropa ---

Man, not sure if you are pulling my leg... but I was referring to the harmonica

Plenty of guitarists at the Blues jam... followed by harp players probably. There always seems to be a lack of drummers and bass players.

I've been viseting two one in Lynwood wa.& one in Kirkland wa. and see the same as you, and did you actually see a Washboarder? My Brother is Good at that.

Guitarists who think they can play the blues are the most common.
There was a one-armed harmonica player that showed up here at a local blues jam,for some reason I had thought it would be hard to play with only one hand but he made it look easy.

Well my screen name is Cajun- Blues.... That will give you an idea of who I saw with the frottoir.... aka washboard... I think only lasted one song until projectiles started flying..

Damn desert rats...

Musically, I would love to do some live performances down there... Its just the whole flat-land thing that gets to me... I need moutains in my life...

I've been to (and hosted) them from Miami to Maine and a few out on West Coast and what I've seen mostly is :

1. Guitarist - most times with vocals, sometimes with slides
2. Bass - sometimes with vocals
3. Drums
4. Harp - sometimes with vocals
5. Piano/Keys - rarely vocals
6. Male and Female vocalists - some can actually sing!

Cody Dickinson made a pretty cool washboard.

Mostly guitarists, followed by harp players. Drummers seem slightly more common than bass players, and horn players a little less common than bass players. There also seem to be about as many keyboard players as horn players. Most of the time the singer also plays an instrument.
