Subject: RE: Fingers, Hitting Frets, & Not Looking
When on stage I tried to stare at the mike right in front of my nose. I never looked at my hands. The result was my eyes crossed and gave an interesting comic effect to even the most serious of songs. Try singing "The Death Of Queen Jane" or "EAST TEXAS RED" with your eyes crossed. ("...And Red was dead when the other two men sat down to eat their stew.") A wonderful cure for depression and a whole other dimension to one's set.

Love,

Art
