While I admire guys like toots who can memorize literally hundreds of songs, I am a believer of the Albert Einstein quote "I never commit to memory anything that can easily be looked up in a book." Only so many brain cells survived my youth and I care to use them for more important purposes.

Many musicians use a song book - most pros actually use a teleprompter. You think those stage monitors are all speakers? think again. Look to Elton's right from about :25 to :35 on the below vid. Yup, a teleprompter (and even I could sing most of Elton's tunes by heart). If it's good enough for Sir Elton, it's good enough for me.

It's caused by folks who post questions in forum threads irrelevant to the original poster's question. The lack of common decency upsets the equilibrium of the servers that cause them to freeze up.

Sorry Alvee, couldn't resist. I've done a search for Dream Guitars and only found a retailer in NC, not a manufacturer. Happy NGD! post a pic when you can.

I've got a buddy who has been through a couple of rough marriages and divorces and recently fell head over heels in love with his old high school girlfriend. Disgustingly public show of affection head over heels I'm telling ya (and busting his chops).

In reality, my buddy is a great guy and deserves every minute of happiness he can get. They recently married and I am very pleased that he is happy.

I wasn't at their wedding, but I know what you mean. Very nice indeed.

Welcome Dean, it's a pretty friendly group around here. Looking forward to your presence in the forum!

Very cool Cam. Thanks for sharing!

FWIW - Music123, Musicians Friend and Guitar Center are all owned by the same corporate conglomeration.

Yep - need a Pic - And Pix - the pressure is on!

I can't speak to your model, but I've got an Alvarez 12'r (purchased from Mr. Pix), that plays so sweet and sounds great!

ETA: - Happy NGD!!

What you have experienced is a well known scientific condition in the textile industry known as texticular atrophy (or shrinkage). It is a well known fact that textile products (defined as the production of yarn, and cloth and the subsequent design or manufacture of clothing and their distribution) will shrink from lack of usage. This occurs at a molecular level and cannot be prevented.

This is very similar to testicular atrophy, common to males, most often occurring after a swim in very cold water. Fortunately, testicular atrophy is easily overcome by warming the effected area; Unfortunately, atrophy of the texticular nature can only be solved by the purchase of some new trousers.

Such a simple idea and it looks like it works well. One of those DOH! - Why didn't I think of that?!

Congrats gramps!

I like the black
