Thread Name: Acoustic vs. Electric
Subject: RE: Acoustic vs. Electric
Freightdawg, Now I see what you're after. Not to worry, this problem can be fixed to your satisfaction. (After all, what else matters?) It will take a little money but… Oh, what the hell.

One approach is to give a bazillion or so dollars to each Republican member of Congress and carefully selected Democratic members and just have them outlaw the use of electric instruments in any sort of music with roots in traditionally acoustic forms. Strict and mandatory pelalties will be imposed for anyone violating this Federal law. For extra insurance, you can give Halliburton the contract to confiscate any electric instruments used in violation of the new law.

Another approach might be to fund a petition drive and a parallel media blitz to have all electric instruments recalled. Again, Halliburton would be awarded the non-competitive contract for confiscation.

Soon you won't have to be annoyed by electric music any more. Any artists that want to use electric instruments creatively can just go away to some country where such degenerate behavior is tolerated.

Good luck.
