Re: 3 New recordings (9 replies, posted in My local band and me)
SHALOM TO ALL MY CHORDIE FRIENDS.
Neo whats wrong with you, apologising for what ????
I am angry reading this but honestly looking for an answer and I am not trying to be a Schmuck or an obnoxious person.
We have the French Horn is calling it a French offensive.????It almost sounds like some people are saying to call an instrument a Jews Harp is anti-Semitic. Music shops here call them Jews Harp and I haven’t noticed any offence taken by my many Jewish friends.
Classical Guitar I am thinking the way to combat the perception of the name "Jew's harp" as a slur in your country is not to try to change the language, but to improve the image of the instrument. You could do that by treating the Jew's harp as a legitimate musical instrument and encouraging others to do the same."
If I am wrong so are the music shops that sell these items.

Re: Why Dont Girls Play Air Guitar. (13 replies, posted in Poems)
Thank you Easy Beat and Neo for taking time to comment on and read my piece.This year's world air guitar title was won by a Japanese lady , Nanami Nagura. I see females are now taking up guitar more then they use to. I wonder if many people play air piano??
Jim I guess if Sigmund Freud was around today, instead of writing my piece, he would have presented an intellectual university paper on the male gender describing the energy created by the life instincts and DNA of the male prone to playing air guitar and it's effect on the human female. When I hear people say they have made "a Freudian slip" I always think Freudian Slip would be a good name for a boat ramp. I guess that shows that I really am weird.
Phill you are right kids are a great source of inspiration. I can imagine there are people out there who could tell some interesting stories about blow up guitars.
Classical Guitar there are some brilliant lady guitar players out there in all genres but I think there is still a need for more to strut their stuff. I am starting to realise that maybe the Kid is right not many girls are prone to playing air guitar. I had alot of funny ideas come into my head following his question.
