I like the "squashed ants" comment...what gets me more irritated are those who
can read music a little but refuse to in the pop music situation because they
think they'll look "uncool". My guitarist partner is a little like that and is
sometimes bothered that I want a stand with at least the words to the 150 or so
tunes we can play in front of me. I keep telling him that the best musicians
in the world play with music in front of them...why shouldn't I?
