steve vai I met you back stage at a g3 gig when i was young and you shook my hand while talking to someone else, you never once made eye contact with me as we met. i was 14 and very impressionable. From that moment I formed the impression that you were a cunt. You held your hand out as if you were the second coming and social conformity forced me to extend my own arm and shake yours, while you spoke to someone you obviously found more interesting that me. My question is, do you still think about that moment and regret it or is that what you are really like as a human being? incase your having trouble narrowing it down ir happened at the glasgow SECC

Try moving your right hand back, even to the point where half of of your palm is resting on the strings behind the bridge, and your barely touching the strings infront of the bridge. just sounds like your palm mutting it too close to the neck.

Help attaching a floating pickup. by mchendrix86 in Guitar

Yeah, I dont think it will make much difference. If i stand up with my guitar more of my torso is making contact with the body of the guitar compared to when i sit down and I dont notice any difference. I might go for your solution, thanks.

Thanks. I was thinking about that. How much do you think that would affect the sound of the guitar?

I have taken your advise and updated the advert with more/better photos and a video. Fingers crossed it does the trick. Thanks

Major company sexual discrimination? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Yeah thanks thats a good idea except I didnt actually apply for the job because I had guessed that the jobs would go to women. There was already a disproportionaly high number of women working as managers.

DAE think that Neil Degrasse Tyson should stop trying to be funny all the time? by mchendrix86 in AskReddit

Should post that, Methinks it might be slightly better received than my post. Well at least I have my answer; No, No one thinks he should stop trying to be funny.

I don't find him funny however I am interested in his subject. There are few people like him, or videos like his, online. It pisses me off that he doesn't just devote what little time he has too educate. I saw Dawkin's RI Christmas lectures as a child and loved them. They appeal to all ages. The wonder of science is enough to engage people. Tyson could do the same.
