Harmonica? Who here plays it?

Cuz I am totally missing it. I've looked up some tutorials online and haven't had much luck. So who here plays and what was your break through moment?

Still waiting on my break through moment. But I guess Id have to play it more than once every 6 month's.

All you need is a green bullet and small combo amp, and your harp will howl like a goose getting a stiff red bugger from a rutting coyote.

Pete from Goatsnake basically has a Harmonica sewn to his lips! I'd love to play Harmonica too, always digged it.

I have harmonicas, but I didn't "get" them either. Probably spent a couple hours a week for a month or so trying. Maybe I just need someone to show me. I have a hard time learning from books.

I have a bunch of them. I have one that has a reverb/delay effect that's kind of cool. I can do a little bit but even playing a simple melody is tripping me up. I wish I knew somebody that played that could give me some tips.

i have always wondered what a cab mic'd with a green bullet would sound like

I'm guessing boxy with a lot of unpleasant feedback. Not sure they're designed to handle those SPLs.
