Hey, how's it going in here?

We have some evidence, however, that you may have to pay for the reeds.

Well... beside the fact that there's a lot of those obnoxious accordeon players around, things are going great :D

Do pump organs count? I mean... they are bellows fed free-reeds too.

Great, apart from all those blasted concertina, accordion and accordeon players around here!

There are definitely too many B/C players in here!

One had the courage to confess in the poll, and another poor fellow and his wife just bought one, thinking they had got a bargain. :cry:

BTW for John Kerr and all the rest of you who wrestle with a squirming Jack-in-the-Box on your knees: if a concertina is really a squeezebox, as you contend, why did the editors name their much-lamented periodical Concertina and Squeezebox Magazine?

It's fine in here ... except for all of those pesky button-pushing
bellow-squeezers we're tripping over. :P

I don't know. But perhaps their poor choice of name had something to do with their demise? Maybe the same reason most winos eschew subscribing to Food and Wine magazine. ("Duh. Can't be a very good magazine if those bozos don't even know that food and wine are the same thing, can it?")

BTW, I agree with StevieJ that the one B/C player who self-identified in the poll is one B/C player too many... :lol:
