Seems like it’s open season on my wallet this month …
“The proper study of mankind is books.” – Aldous Huxley
“God teaches the soul by pains and obstacles, not by ideas.” – Fr. Jean-Pierre de Caussade, Abandonment to Divine Providence
“What
stands in the way becomes the way.” – Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

A very true
and illuminating peek for non-musicians into the mind of the guitarist:
I played seriously in hard rock bands from 1986 to 1996, and my guitar strap journey started at the far right of the diagram, moved quickly to the left, then slowly rose again returning rightward. (Though I always referred to it as guitar strap length.)
For
reference, Jimmy Page hovers at the far left, Robert Fripp of King Crimson at
the far right, and someone like Alex Lifeson occupies the middle
of the diagram, with Angus near Jimmy and Steve Howe near Fripp.
Gave me a chuckle
this morning.
