Brian, I apologize if I misinterpreted your joke, I just really don't want to get into any more of those looong stupid arguments either, one starts then everyone jumps in. I hope the flat/round thing is in the past, and please continue to joke because my jokes aren't very funny even though I think they are.
Karl don't worry it was nothing to do with you, we had a long ongoing debate about rounds vs flats here a while ago and I think a lot of us are still a little sensitive about the topic. I was a little touchy tonight anyway. Karl you play upright right? I did a blues show tonight and my K&K preamp krapped out on me right before the show, I think the jack is bad, and then my magnetic pickup was making a noise with every note I hit and this was on a live internet show and I couldn't fix it, grr!

Poll:

Best for slicing cheese:
1. Rounds
2. Flats
3. Half round
4. Gut

Sorry Bob I was a bit of a spaz in my reaction. I had a very long day today and I guess I was just rubbed the wrong way when I read your post. It's not your fault.....I just tend to go "for the throat" (or just be rude in this case) instead of letting things go. It's a character flaw and probably a byproduct of my line of work.

Group Hug ...

Cheers !

Jared, why do you always say that? You do play them, don't you?

I'm sorry to say this,... really I am, but sometimes the arguments over rounds and flats are the funniest threads I have ever read.

I know how intelligent the people who post them really are,(many more years of experience than me, for sure..) but it makes it all the more funny!

It's like watching Gladiators fight over whose tunic looks the best!

(please don't be mad....)

Steve-

Jaymi always gave me cr_p for not posting a pix with me PLAYING my g'tars. But if I'm playing-I can't take the photo.

I don't gig and my better half is not appreciative of "Roundabout, Iron Man and Hotel Kali-fornia".

Even man's best friend has her own opinion...

Unfortunately, I don't gig either.

But luckily, my chick LOVES it when I play. As loud as I want, every night, same old songs over and over again. I think she's just trying to impress me with her tolerance! She doesn't seem to mind my RAS too much either.

My wife likes it when I gig (as long as I bring her, haha!) she likes it sometimes and sometimes doesn't.
