This happens fairly often I think. I have a cheap copy of an SG but use Fender Bullets or D'addarios for strings and yet whats happening to you happens to me, but mostly high up the neck above the 12th fret.

Im not sure about my acoustic though I'll check. Yeah it happens with mine but only if you press really hard.

We went busking yesterday downtown. We had to get a busking permit which was $10 but we made this back in about 5 minutes. We busked for 2 hours and made $76. We had to share it between us though. We both played guitar and didn't sing. Most of the time I played the melody and my friend played the chords. By far the most popular songs were sweet home alabama and the red hot chili peppers song snow ((hey oh)). We got about 17 2 dollar coins and 2 five dollar notes. All in all it was a sucsses and we are planning to do it again.

Yeah i think palying the guitar really helps. I could manage to do the foot hand thing. no-one in family has been musical yet my brother and I seem to be musical out of nothing. My dad is a genetisist (is that how you spell it?) and says that there must be a trait in either him or mum that has affected us. He puts it down to genetics.

Also I think that you can train yourself to be musical. My friend who struggled with guiatr for 2 years before meeting me when I was starting was still on the same level as me after 2 years. He then improved dramatically with me and now has a fantastic ear. I can play any note on the guitar an he can say whether its an E or an A or a Bb etc. Amazing.

Who was it who once said that religion was the opium of the masses, i cant remember who but they were right.

Was that the bomb threat how that guy wrestled the driver and said there was a bomb on board when he heard on the radio that it was the anniversary of the september 11 attacks, I saw it on the news.

Thanks, I might try to sing. We just need some classic songs to play that will grab peoples attention, we know a jazzed up version of 'I will survive' and I can just manage to reach the notes on ' Horse with no name'. We'll also play a few acoustic versions of songs that we have written nad we can just jam as well. Oh yeah, we'll play little wing as well, and mabye an instrumental version of 'sweet home alabama', are there any classic aussie songs that we could play? I tried playing some crowded house but it was just out of my range. Thanks for your help. I live in a country town with a population of about 45'000 and the main CBD is just 2 blocks. We've found a spot on one of the main streets outside a food bar sitting on a park bench, does this sound good?

if you read closely she was actually laughing at the quote about hendrix it wasnt her saying it.

I like wish you were here more than dark side of the moon because it is more guitar stuf and not as much electronic stuff.

Thanks.
