08.22.08 Important Lessons For A Soft Rock Star From A Screamo Guitar Player
I spoke at a screamo music festival yesterday and here is just some of what I learned about music making from one guitar player there. I wrote these lessons down and will afix them to my bathroom mirror at home for review every morning.
1) Play the guitar behind your head.
2)Spin the guitar around your neck.
3)Play a friend’s guitar.
4)Wear tight jeans. And boxers.

At a rock show, I saw two guitarists toss their guitars at each other to swap axes.
Just make sure they don’t hit mid-air and crash to the stage floor like those did. Ouch.

That last picture is so wrong. If I was on stage with part of my pants ripped out, I would want my face blurred out like did on the other pictures.
