JP Stratoblogster says: [On Playing Guitar for Folks]
"Recent comments at my Play-Be in Tune post reminded me about the importance of good hygiene.
"Here's our "guitar-mom" to tell ya all about it:
"You wanna keep
those strings wiped off when you're done playing. Get the undersides of 'em too. Keep an old t-shirt with your guitar-- like those old campaign t's. No guitar should be rode hard and put away wet! Especially in Alaska! [SOURCE]"- - - - - - - - -
Dreadful Descriptions at this blog site:Looking over Peter Beste’s website portfolio, it’s easy to see that he’s interested in subculture(s), in marginalization. As subjects are studied, recognition is realized in the bifurcation of regional signs: Rural tables topped with brown food, resting arms topped with India-inked self-tatts, palms and fingers and wrists grimed and greased, begging for a lather of Lava soap. There are common threads stitched throughout Beste’s work, and they’re meant to be pulled. (Stewart Voegtlin; Peter Beste Interview, retrieved excerpt/photo HERE)

MooPig has a queer "Link Lifter Department," that honestly no one around knows what they do... but this yellow copy from L.L. just floated on a cool breeze into my In-Box, so I did some reading.
This might interest all of you who qwest for Tone Supremacy. As usual:
Protocol states employees must wash hands before returning to work...

JP Stratoblogster continues:
"You don't wanna debate me about that one.
"A helpful hint to gear merchants out there: Provide anti-bacterial moist towelettes for your customers and your own class establishment mojo! Which also reminds me -- if you're gonna eat BBQ before a gig, don't go to a Tony Roma's just for their nice moist towelettes. Sure, they're nice alrighty, but the ribs suck! Go to a place with decent BBQ, bring the bar of Lava and later, when you're playing it clean, you can thank me and yourself!
It's the little things folks-- and hygiene is a gosh darn important one too."

What more can I say about Mike Phelps than... "Never met Mike Phelps."
How was that?
This is my first time visiting this blog-- a rival to the best stream of consciousness blogs on the web. I don't know what else to call 'em. My blog is like the little spots my dog leaves on the carpet when he's mad at me, thus my stream is quite intermittent.
I think anything could show up at MooPig! I'm in extraordinary company here.
Cheers!

ps - Mike Phelps, Mike Phelps, Mike Phelps, Mike Phelps...
Ahh, very nice to have you drop by Strat! I use the old link method to make sure I get word out that I found a great site. Great advice, and good reading.
I ran across you first in comments in Pribek.net, several times, after moseying over, "On Playing guitar for Folks" post got me going, so of course I brought it to the attention of my reader... [after clicking on all your ads],,,yes singular; my number one and only fan my brother.
Thanks to my usually unawares contributors... this is too much fun to be legal. So in your words, Rule One: "No guitar should be rode hard and put away wet!" and that is a wrap.
