Last Monday 25 July 2005 17:32, Jay Vaughan was like: > when was the last time you ever required someone to read the manual > for their 6-string before they could play it? ?or their bass? ?or a > flute? ?or the violin? > > sure, it takes skill to play an instrument.. but its the doing that > makes the skill, not the reading. > > users should -never- be -required- to get trained before the > instrument will work. ?the instrument should work, by itself, by > default, anyway.. I've tried everything, coercion, heavy irony, psychological violence, even sexual favours and my bass still completely refuses to play itself. It doesn't make a sound, it just sits in the corner of my room and looks strung up. What am I doing wrong? Please help!!! tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk
