"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

Ya - I only learned basic chords - but speaking of the banjo - lets not forget about Keith Richards- a pioneer of alternate tuning-  tuned his guitar to open G ( which is banjo ) for that sound in honky tonk and brown sugar ( even taking off the low E )

Keith Richards is the best rock rhythm player ever. Most people dismiss him as a druggie burnout, but his riffs set the stage for a generation of players.. as much as Hendrix lead work did for lead players.

Got that right- I think Watts or Wyman said " with Keith the rhythm guitar is the ' lead ' guitar "
