'r U Ok?'
'Greetings, Thought that there was some sarcasm goin on but the question's true. Wouldn't you need somebody that loved to hear you playing? Then there'd be that base to start from. Whattif the teach was a stiff that didn't even like you? Whattif you were hurting too much to want to touch some stick of wood? Not exactly 'The Real Th*ng'. Then, if your luvee duvee brought their mates and they all loved that so. . . . But so, we carry on. . . . Guess that you have to be a stoic, resigned to your place as a stroker of the wooden object. So, there's lot's of 'em. Could be MAGIC, too. Knowing the right spells, the ways that are going to bring you the POWER. Yes, . . . that, too. Elsewhere, as was posted earlier, the idea was that you are going to be limited to your BODY. That's why musicians are a lot like those dancers, you know, . . hm-mm, their bodies. . . . Squeeky voices sing squeeky songs. The guitar player of The Ventures, that Aulde Skool bunch, he says that you get your guitar repertoire from the shape of your hand. Sort of Morphological ways. And yes, that would have to be so. Don' you think? But then there's the instrument. You can't make a Silver Purse from a Sow's Ear. So, if you are playing on your Sow's Ear and wish you could hear The Silver Purse, then hye yerself away to some Wizard nut. They tweak the ackshunns and intone8 the neck and smooth over the rough edges on the fret wires. Then, listen to the way you sound. Probably sounds, like, a teeny-some betta. But you gotta know tha tweaks, the tricks, the twicks, too. D.D.'
