I was so excited that I didn't read the entire post Kenny.  So I guess it's when Roger receives them, the first one to respond, correct?

Well finally a pic of JJ!  Cool.  Don't know why you're camera shy.  Nice pic!

Has anyone taken any pics of the picks yet? 

I love that the director/writer cast "real" musicians in most of the roles.  I read that the film was made for a crazy low amount, like $100,000 or $200,000.  Shot with handheld cam corders from a distance to make Glen and Marketa more at ease....you're right SouthPaw, it was very real and believable.  And it wouldn't surprise me that they got together as a real couple.  They had great chemistry on film!

Southpaw.....loved "Into the Wild"  It haunted me for days afterward.  And Syd1994, I love "Across the Universe".  We don't go to movies very often unless there's a Star Wars or Star Trek coming out.  Love all of Tim Burton's stuff.  Just watched Coraline the other night.  Other than that, anything with music in it, is my choice! 

A great music/movie one is called, "Once".  With Glen Hansard (from the Irish Band the Frames and who was the guitar player in "The Commimtments) and Marketa Irglova.  It's a new-age musical, as it's not in the same format as most musicals.....there's dialogue without singing but lots of great music that the two characters play together...it's beautifully filmed, very simply, and just a great soundtrack.  They won an oscar for one of the songs I believe.

Thinking of you and your family at this time Lena.

Hey Micky....yup been busy...nice to speaky to you too!  Good luck!

Hey Crizzut....I just had my friend tweak my two electric guitars this weekend.  You might not have to change the nut or the bridge....just adjust the bridge (or get someone who knows how do it for you!)....then he filed down the nut on some of the slots so the strings wouldn't bind as much...after he filed them down he added some grahite (pencil shavings) to make sure the strings weren't binding again...my guitar sounds hot now!  Stays in tune much better and is easier to play!  My advice is to take it to someone who knows what they're doing....it might just be as simple as setting up the guitar to suit your needs!

Awesome, glad it's all in tip top shape now. 

Cheers!

For the crackle try this, as provided to me by my guitar teacher......plug in your guitar but turn down the volume completely...then turn the volume/master on your amp all the way up and down, quickly a few times.....sometimes it's just dust/pet hair etc or a static build up that needs to be cleaned out.  I had the same problem on an amp and this fixed it!

Which song Are1222?  Hubby and I are learning, "Know your Enemy".  It's transcribed for guitar and bass in the latest edition of Guitar World.
