Re: Goin' a la Maison - Boozoo - box, key?

Dwight, if I'm not mistaken, that Maison song is extraordinarily slow and depressing. Why not consider a less gloomy Chavis composition? Zydeco Coteau is a peppy, uplifting dance song that will surely urge your audience to smile and dance. This will be what you will need... sawdust... not handkerchiefs.

I believe the button combination you are hearing might be the "2", which according to my Dirk video is the 3rd and 6th buttons mashed down and the bellows pushed. It wouldn't surprise me if this were incorrect, as the Dirk video has frustrated me in a most truculent fashion.
