The door opens and a tall figure stands, armed only with a pitchpipe, framed in the doorway.

"SO! I hear you agents have been looking for The Chordwaster? Well, you've found him! Don't move Agent Mbo," he raises the pitchpipe menacingly, "Or I'll hit you with an F# that'll knock you all the way back to a basic CMaj triad." He removes his hat and coat and is suddenly shorter; shorter portly and bespectacled.

"You see," he says," I'm actually ACAPELLAMAN. Chordwaster was just a disguise to try to get you to see that all these un-necessary chords don't add to a song. They only show off the virtuosity of some player often to the detriment of the melody. Excess chording is rife. It's invaded Irish sessions, it's everywhere.No one cares about the melody, only about how many tricky chords they can cram into a song."

He backs through the door.

"Remember less is best! Or The Chordwaster will be back!

AHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
