    I think I'm better with my plastic recorder.

    Nah, but in all seriousness: congratz, man. That takes patience and skill.

    Congrats, man. Every man should be required to learn how to play a guitar. Hell, I wish I could, but I can't afford one right now.

    Slash. More people will get it.

    Of course if you care more about your friends getting it, name it Kirk.

    My guitar is called Sheila...

    god bless RVB. No I will not claim to be able to play anything all the way through... It's effort really... but I am entering for a grade 1 exam. So it's all cool...

    Dude, that is just wrong.

    Edit: I also had no idea Jews had their own version of Halloween... it sounds a lot better than the Christian variety.

    Pics or you don't have a guitar. ;)

    Now that you've got One out of the way, you can learn some good Metallica songs, like Battery. No, I'm just kidding. You should actually learn 21st Century Schizoid Man.

    Bass is cooler.

    Used to be able to play bass to most of the Band of Gypsies songs under my leg. Haha, good times.

    Just remember to go slow and focus on technique to start with. It's boring and annoying but unlearning bad habits that are stuck in muscle memory is ten times worse. Not that I would know...

    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
