When I was a lad, me & my high school buddies had a punk rock band that rehearsed in my family room. We were all about style over substance, suburban punks who could hardly play, but we looked tough with our low slung, spray painted guitars. We jumped around and posed with our guitars, feedback screaming from our amps, sneering and snarling as we barked out songs about the horrible injustices in our lives. Unfortunately, the family room was in the basement, with a very low ceiling. Doubly unfortunate was the fact that it was built in the 70's, when stucco stalagmites were an acceptable ceiling finish. I still have scars on my knuckles from early windmill attempts.
PS: the secret is to get the guitar out to your left (assuming you are right handed) Open chords are easiest (note the Dmaj in my avatar ), as is the downward sweeping windmill.
