I gave up to Joe, but only because I hit on using my guitar as an (albeit it oversized) maraca (no not maracas because I can only handle one at a time....I said it was oversized).


Of course it has led to an entirely new problem. How do I keep them picks inside?


The other night it cause a particularly embarrasing problem as one pick that had a piece of gum on it (yes I did try that one) stuck in a woman's hair. Needless to say she was not happy, especially when we then broke out into some of that wonderful late sixties music like Yummy Yummy Yummy, Dizzy, and Sugar Sugar.
