The hardworker and the lucky fart

I always wondered how it'd feel to break a string onstage; a situation where luck foils the best of performers. It happened to Joe Satriani in a concert that was made into a DVD (though they did a retake for that song on the spot, asking for the crowd's cooperation), and he's about as good as they get when it comes to 6-stringed instruments.

EmergeKL preliminaries coming up this weekend; an untimely reminder by Shen >_<
May this NEVER happen on stage >_<>
My pretty pretty Emma, will you fail me I fail you at the most important of times?

I think not =)

She says hi and thanks you =D It's the preliminary for some EmergeKL event that's supposed to be the trademark of my friend's church (City Harvest). The winners get to perform for the actual event in August or something ;P

You're seeing things dude, notice which side the cutaway is on and it'll all make sense -_- I can't play backwards :p haha

or maybe it seems so because the nickel wound bass strings don't reflect as much light, so they seem thinner
