One of those moments 

Do you know those moments when you wanted to throw your guitar against a wall, but you don't do it because it's too expensive.

I'm just having one...


Man I hate fandangos and will never play it again.

It's those damned hormones, buddy. Nobody tells you to conquer or fight here.
You're a man and she's a woman. Just be friends.
When she gets too stubborn just leave her be for some time. Or play something easy together.

I have those moments ALL THE TIME!!! Thats why I've got a cheaper guitar that I practise on, and it doesn't matter if I smash it out of anger.

Mind you, some of you guys on this forum might consider my Yamaha just such a guitar. But to me, she's a lady...

Man!

I just stopped playing and if I didnt I would have killed the bitch.
She just keeps telling me things I dont want to hear... over and over again. Two years ago we had the same argument and now...yeah right, start all over again.

But tomorrow..... you pick her up and try again, maybe she's in a better mood.

Rob.

Thanks. Meanwhile I'm calm again.

Tomorrow I'll buy her some new strings, perhaps that will make her more willing to do what I want her to do...

I gotta disagree with the sexism though. I miss Zata and Kate and the environment here is one of the things that discourages them from visiting more often IMO.


Romerito, its NOT that we think so LOWLY of women that we liken them to mere objects (guitars), but rather that we think so HIGHLY of our guitars that we liken them to women!!! Isn't that complimentary?

On a lighter note, just a little something I copied and pasted below: "Why guitars are better than women". there was a section on why guitars are better than men too, so any female members can feel free to agree or dissagree with that one. NOT MY views, btw, just a bit of fun...

WHY GUITARS ARE BETTER THAN WOMEN:

Guitars don't get pregnant.
You can play your Guitar any time of the month.
Guitars don't have parents.
Guitars don't whine... unless you want them to.
You can share your Guitar with your friends.
Guitars don't care how many other Guitars you've played
Guitars don't care how many other Guitars you have.
Guitars don't care if you look at other Guitars.
Guitars don't care if you buy Guitar magazines.
You'll never hear, "Surprise, you are going to proud father of a new Guitar" unless you go out to buy one yourself.
If your Guitar is flat you can fix it.
Your Guitar doesn't care if you never listen to it.
Your Guitar won't care if you leave up the toilet seat.
You don't have to be jealous of the guy who works on your Guitar.
If you say bad things to your Guitar, you don't have to apologize before you play it again.
You can play your Guitar as long as you want and it won't get sore.
You can stop playing your Guitar as soon as you want and it won't get frustrated.
Your parents won't remain in touch with your old Guitar after you dump it.
Guitars don't get headaches.
Guitars don't insult you if you're a bad player.
Your Guitar never wants a night out with the other Guitars.
Guitars don't care if you're late.
You don't have to take a shower before you play your Guitar.
If your Guitar doesn't look good you can refinish it or get new parts.
You can play your Guitar the first time you meet it, without having to take it to dinner, see a movie, or meet its mother.
When in mixed company, you can talk about what a great time you had the last time you played your Guitar.

and last, but not least:
If you decide to part with an old Guitar, you don't have to give up half of everything you own.

Sorry, I didn't mean it that way. Just more like an attitude towards the guitar that will benefit you.

Yes, NOT my words, like I said, just a bit of fun I found on another website. But I have to admit that Romerito's additions were pretty funny!!!

Although perhaps good questions to bear in mind are:

Can you have sex with a guitar? and: when you hug a guitar, does it hug you back?

RE: One of those moments (in reply to Georg

Today's a new day, and I found out, what had unnerved me.

It was a different (and in my opinion very bad) way of notation than I was used to. Now I try it by ear, it's much better.

I'm glad I still have my guitar.

Jbashorun, I gave her a hug but she didn't hug me back.

Henrik, I don't get aggressions against computers, there's no feeling involved. Bill gates and microsoft... well that's another topic.



I wonder if there are any machoman guitars out there... Perhaps the Sierra Vincente model...

OR, how about this one:

Will your guitar give you a blowjob when its in a good mood?

I think we all know the answer...
