Great to hear from you and getting more excited as the days go by. I have alot to learn about the harp and I am looking forword to all that will be there doing the same. See you soon!!
I have most of Jon's materials and have attended local harp courses. I have sat in with jam bands and have hopped onstage upon invitation for some basic blues but I have a lot to learn.
I am a blues harp enthusiast and look forward to meeting y'all in St Louis.
Toamille, Well I am excited to say the least. I have been messing around for two years but am getting serious about the effort to play the harp. I am looking to making some local connections for help but feel the Jam Camp will be both inspirational as well as push my playing forward. Making new friends from everywhere at the camp will be welcome too. I have worked on alot of fundamentals and want to try and bring them together for playing with a band. I have found a local harper interested in playing with me and hope this will help. Looking to have a good time and meeting you in person at the camp. Phizog(Bob Schaut)
Actually phizog, this is my first camp. i have been plating harp for about 2 years. I have a lot of Jons teaching aids and have been to a couple of harp weekends. Bean Blues in Indiana, SPAH stuff, ect ect. had classes by PT Gazell, John Hall, Joe filisko.
I think this camp will be a great time and help fill in some of the gaps.

Toamille, Looking forward to meeting you at the camp. I know several have attended more than once, as it sounds you have. What is your experience with the camps? Do you find more than one helpful in the development as a player?
Excited about joining in on the fun at the camp and meeting some new friends. My sister is going to be there too and so will have some sibling time together.
Met Jon on the phone awhile ago and he was real patient with my practice. I need the support and encouragement he provided. See you all there!
