my credo, more or less

[rone]

"Please act towards others with goodwill and with courtesy;
Otherwise, be polite."
                - Guitar Craft House Rules

The older i get, the easier it is for me to remember to follow this.  It is important; it is urgent.  I sneer and use sarcasm because i've done it so often that it becomes rote, a reflex, an automatic defense against a world and a humanity that, frankly, too often pisses me off and disappoints me.  But i do not blame the world and the people around me for my behavior.

In fact, I will punish reward you for it by forcing you to giving you the opportunity to listen to my just-recorded Crafty Guitarist pastiche (in the sense of "homage"): http://nothings.org/music/sketchbook2/sketch210.mp3 (2.5MB)

• not actually using New Standard tuning
• the lowest string isn't the only one that buzzes
• not using Ovation acoustic guitars
• not actually acoustic guitars at all
• part of my "music sketchbook" project, so recorded quickly and rather sloppily
