Is it Just Steel Players?...

You were there. Did you notice any peculiar signs hanging off my back??

Thought this might be OT, so it's over in "Music"..

WEll Mr. WEST.......... I have no idea if I am or am not??? Say WHAT?
I've been called a lot of things but never that...before! Does it mean I get paid for displaying the "score cards" on someone's playing performance last night?
I attempted to be fair and reasonable but certainly didn't want to give anyone a sense of over-confidence.
You are ONE GREAT PLAYER and as always it was great fun to witness the event and to hear your playing there at Jubitz' Pondarosa
Lounge. Congratulations on you guys winning the "battle of the bands" award for the evening. Who knows.....after this, you may very well be headed for the big time; maybe even Nashville or Del Rio.
And "WHAT SIGNS" on your back???? I failed to get and understand that one either.
And was that really "CRAZY GLUE" on your picks?
You keep this up and I'll have to place your guitar up for sale again.

Look it up, or watch "Brother Where Art Thou"

Oh yeah, the Crazy glue..

I have found that having tight picks set out on my fingers, that when I'm really tired, like after a 12 hr day shift or more, they just don't stay on. The trick is to put it on, and get the picks off just before it sets up, and then they'll stick. It's also good for fixind worn thru spots in the fingernails. Sure beats fumbling across a stage under carbon arc beams in an opening act chasing them.... Just a touch on the nail side of those blue thumbpicks keeps em from slipping around too.

Moderation seems to be the key..

See you in the other forum Image

It all worked out.
