Wise Men to Help Break World Record at Houston Astros Game Tonight

HOUSTON, Sept. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Ever wanted to break a world record? If you plan to go to the Houston Astros game tonight, you will have your chance both to break a world record and be part of an upcoming documentary film. Wise Men Consultants along with the Houston Astros, the Guinness Book of World Records and the independent film, "Pocket Full of Soul: The Harmonica Documentary" will attempt to break the current record for the number of people playing the same instrument at the same time using harmonicas. Attendees of Friday night's game at Minute Maid Park also will get to keep the Wise Men harmonicas as a souvenir.

"While we enjoy helping our clients solve complex technology and supply chain challenges, we wanted to support our hometown taking this record from Hong Kong," said Wise Men Consultants President and Chief Executive Officer Juuhi Ahuja. "With the gloom of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico behind us, it was time to take a break and focus on something a little more fun on a Friday night."

At tonight's game, organizers will hand out 10,000 harmonicas to attendees and coordinate a session for everyone to play their harmonica. The Guinness Book of World Records will document the event, and the documentary producers will film it. The current world record is held in Hong Kong with 6,131 people playing the same instrument at the same time.

"Pocket Full of Soul" is a film about America's love affair with the harmonica and the musicians who consider the humble instrument an essential ingredient of their unique Blues sound. Huey Lewis narrates the film and is joined by a host of other musicians who cherish harmonicas as their pocket full of soul. Producers of the film are hoping for distribution in the fall.
