Ok ok I am beaten down with the science of stringology;
I capitulate and bow to you greater knowledge of strings.
You are the string meister hehehehe,but you knoew that all ready.
If some one of your experience wants to tell me about strings and the technical detail,s of the methods they are using to tune them while they are doing so fine will be enthralled.
If I am to be regailed with humerous or memorable anecdotes like the one about the awful fiddle player great is all part of the act great entertainment.
Tell me its an old song from Ireland, tune the bloody guitar and then play it!!!!!
We are non of us getting any younger.
Except Les.
Who I think I may agree with to some degree
However I dont really like being agreable as it gives a bad impression.
So I would put it this way if every body said Hi I am pleased to be here,this is a song by... while tuning the instrument.Then played it and the next 5 or 6.
Would we save enough time in the evening to be able to have an extra little 10 minute break after the first hour?
SO our number extremities could be relieved by walking around and socialising a bit?
