A Primer for Accordion Beginners

JohnGonzalez — Thur, 04 Dec 2008 22:01:21 GMT

A Primer For Accordion Beginners*

Get an accordion. The cheaper the better because they all sound the same.

Do not tell anyone what you have done.
It will only cause them to worry.
They will find out soon enough.

Take the accordion out of the case and strap it on.
It is better if the accordion rests on your chest instead of your back but, for the first few weeks, it doesn't really make that much difference.

For sounds to be produced, three things must happen.
The third is the most important:

1. The bellows must be moving in or out.
2. One or more of the keys or buttons must be pressed.
3. All potential weapons within a one mile radius must be collected and secured.

The buttons on the left side are chord buttons.
The "C" button has a dimple or nipple so you can find it without looking.
This is a safety feature.
Before it was invented, thousands of accordion players suffered painful
and sometimes disabling injuries, much to the delight of the general public.

Never use more than three buttons.
"Professional" accordionists appear to be using lots of buttons but
they are actually just desperately trying to find the stupid "C".

By the way, "Professional" means they have learned to smile while they do it.

Play the black and white keys.
The high notes are at the bottom and the low notes are at the top.
That arrangement isn't supposed to make any sense.
Accept it.

Note: If you find the high notes at the top and the low notes at the bottom,
you have either put the accordion on upside down or you have tried to repair it yourself.

If the former, turn the accordion over.
If the latter, pack your accordion up with hundreds of dollars and mail it far away for a long, long time.

Continue playing until someone begs you to stop or threatens your life, whichever comes first.

Put the accordion back in its case, order an accordion t-shirt and wear it to your state's Accordion Fest.

Thanks to Dionne from Ziggie's

Painting Buttons

PELON323 — Thur, 04 Dec 2008 17:26:23 GMT

I know this question has been brought up quiet often, but I want advice by all of you (the greatest musicians in the world!) I've been researching on what spray can to use for the Hohner Panther buttons, and I come up with the brand Krylon Plastic Fusion. Can anybody in here tell me if that's a good choice or is there a better one out there? Thanks in advance compas, I know you guys wont let me down with the advice I'm looking for.

"OUR SON'S CONDITION"

chuco — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 20:10:09 GMT

Our son just returned from his doctor's appointment. He had gone for a minor surgical procedure and it couldn't be done because that's when they found problems with his blood.

His test showed that his blood is having problems in clotting; therefore his surgery would have been dangerous and that's the reason is was not performed..

They shall continue to monitor this condition and determine appropriate corrective action. Glad it's over..

He shall take his results to his primary doctor and await further instructions..Chuco
