How long does it take, in months, to learn to play harmonica ?

How long does it take, in months, to learn to play harmonica to the point where you could jam with some folks playing blues and not get pillows thrown at your head?

I’m not talking technical brilliance here – just good enough to be having fun on standard blues songs without hitting painful notes or chords every other bar or two..

For the sake of the argument, assume about 30 min. per day of practice, and prior familiarity with music in general.

Thanks!

Will i lose my embouchure for trombone if i learn trumpet?

Okay, I have been playing Trombone for five years and I want to learn to play Trumpet too. I DO NOT want to switch to Trumpet, I just want to learn for fun and because I have to teach the younger kids below me. I play Trombone for marching band, symphonic band, and jazz band. I do not want to change that, I just want to learn Trumpet to help others and thats it and MAYBE play it for Jazz band 2. (We have two Jazz Bands at my school). Now my question is, if i learn to play Trumpet, will it hurt my Trombone embouchure?
