What was it like in the Amazing Grace coffeehouse?

Boy, this question brings back memories! I remember seeing Jim Post there in the on-campus Amazing Grace back in '74. It was a very intimate and awesome performance. After that they moved to the Main Street area of Evanston. I remember seeing James Taylor's brother perform there. I dug around and found this comprehensive pdf http://www.library.northwestern.edu/archives/findingaids/Amazingrace.pdf you may want to download. I spent all my Babysitting money on the Amazing Grace Coffee House. I saw amazing performers there. Here's a list I recall: Odetta (I paid about 75 cents to see her), Steve Goodman, John Prine, Livingston Taylor, Sam Leopold, Kenny Bloom, Jim Post, Emmylou Harris, Redwood Landing, and more, but that's all I recall at the moment. It was an amazing place for teens since you could hear incredible performers/musicians and age didn't matter since they didn't serve alcohol. I wish that my 16 year old had a place like this to go. It was one of my fondest memories of childhood. It was a small ranchlike house right on the Northwestern campus and off the lakefront in Evanston. I just recall I was there pretty much every weekend and got all my friends hooked on it. I'm still playing guitar and I owe my interest to the Amazing Grace Coffee House. I hope that someone can put a clip on you tube. It would be great!

How do you stop excessive salivation while playing flute?

I think just over time, once you get used to playing, it will go away. I have found that if you are sitting down while playing, then I start to drool while playing because my mouth is faced downward. I find it much easier to stop excessive saliva by standing up becuase that way your chin is up and your mouth isn't facing downward. Let me know if this helps. (:

How many notes are between C and E?

Notes between C and EThere are three notes between C and E: C#/Db, D, and D#/Eb.

Just so you don't get so confused, the person that answered this was correct, but some people are just beginning and you really don't want to confuse them because they aren't ready.

Between C and E is just D. Unless you are playing with sharps and flats then the C key would be D flat (Db) and a C# and then D which is between C and E, then D# and E flat (Eb) D# and Eb are on the same black key. Along with C# and D flat (Db)
