Blow bend in level 5 submission

Ho David!
In the level 5 submission, ex 2.3 is asked to play the 10 holes in 12 bar blues.
Until now we never studied blow bends, on the hole 9 there is that F# that is a blow bend, should I learn to play it now or I can skip that one like the one on the hole 10 ?
Thanks.

Yes David, I asked because
Yes David, I asked because you talked about hole 10 but alse the 9 has a blow bend.
By the way I will work and see if I get to play the 9 F#, if not I will use hole 8 draw D.
Thanks.

Ah yes, good call, thank you for bringing that to my attention. Use 8 draw D, the 9'+ is not very musical sounding.

Other question David,
In that
Other question David,
In that exercises, should I play a single note for each chorus or I can present some flutter, slaps and pulls ?

Answer
Flutters, slaps, pulls... sure, bring it on.
Good morning luckyharp. Skip it... if you look at http://www.bluesharmonica.com/levels-of-achievement/level-5 you'll see this. It's not a bad idea to start messing round with blow bends, they take to develop. Just make sure to practice FAR away from any living being ;-)
