Hi,

According to Christopher P. Harris:

If I concentrate on a single note, and after a few tries, I can get an overblow out of either side of a tongue block, so it can be done. I don't tongue-block usually, though, and am really _lousy_ at doing so. Perhaps, if I'd find more time to practise...

Oh, well... :-)
