That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for December 27, 2022

Researchers were able to find one of Elvis’s ancestors.

/// As he tunes his guitar, he’s resorting

to some awkward and painful contorting.

When it’s strummed out of tune

nearby pigeons will swoon,

and to catch birds like that isn’t sporting.

Son, what are you doing with that guitar? It’s nothing lewd, is it?

If you play really off key, music can be used to kill song birds.

John had become so accustomed to rolling out of a woman’s bed as at the same time he slipped into his clothing (so he could flee from the husband) that it became the only way he knew how to get dressed.

“I can tune into FM channels on this when I hold it like this.”

When Doyle claimed he played by ear, he often demonstrated the fact!

Glenn did it again. He got his ear stuck between the B and E strings.

The folks come from near and far/

When Henrique plays his guitar/

Though a few look askance/

At his strange choice of pants/

And his moves – which are somewhat bizarre///

One day, everyone will be doing this! Now, where’s the lighter fluid?

What the hell is he doing?

How do you explain to the insurance company that you were tuning your guitar and somehow got your ear stuck in the strings?

Bing didn’t show up for the day’s poster shoot for “The Road to Mandalay”……so Bob did the best he could on his own. He preferred it that way.

Just a Country Boy trying to be Like a Rhinestone Cowboy

This is what happens when you play “Free Bird” in the key of “H”.

Consider the humble guitar, / And how many it’s carried so far. / Presley, Hendrix, Lennon, and Atkins / Thrilled us all with their styles of “pickin’s!” / I’ll even salute Ravi Shankar with his sitar!

Glen staying limber so he can get shipped along in a cello case.

Glenn tuning his guitar to the sound of farts.

By the time he learned to combine the two, he was 180 years old. Then he met Picasso…

The famous French blues guitarist, Jacques Vaughan.

What position is that?

My girlfriend told me to really excite her, I needed to find her G spot. I plucked and strummed the g string, but it didn’t do anything for her.

Francois loved his guitar and the music

He played to some seemed sweet and cherubic.

The guitar’s curves like a girl’s,

Vibrating strings a lover’s murmurs —

His face intense in search of the right rubric.

.

Musicians have a soul sense others have not

Poets have something like musicians have got,

Words set out to stalk on a page.

Music sounds fly from mind’s cage

Harmonic-weave nests to gather and knot.

He played the guitar like he was ringing a bell!

And tuning the guitar…

Trying to emulate his idol Chuck Berry…..

A young Elvis watching a youtube video on how to tune a guitar.

" For my next number, I’d like to play an old Chinese song. It’s entitled ‘Tune Ing’ "

He just noticed his date had left because he was taking too long to tune his guitar.

Again, a larger strip image is shown by (Ctrl- or right-) clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #3050 (December 27, 2022) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment, and using the dropdown menu (even larger if you trim what’s after .png from the URL). I have added a comment there pointing to info about this artist I used to point to here. So far, 5 works by this artist have been used here (6 times total, including a repeat). The January 1, 2019, strip has the prior (the repeat). The artist info URLs in my comment there were pointed to in my blog comment. I wonder if 10 string guitars were the norm in the 1750s.

His tai chi instructor couldn’t get him to accept the fact that ‘play the lute’ doesn’t involve an actual instrument.

Shreddin’ it. :)

LOUIES soon learned that you can’t play the guitar AND kill squab hens with it at same time.

The prosaic explanation: He’s trying to tune it in a noisy room, so he’s doing contortions to get an ear near the sound box.

That’s the problem with playing guitar. A violinist would demand silence in the room – and maybe also hears his own instrument better because of bone conduction from the chin on the violin.

It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that string ! Doo wat doo wat doo wat (etc.,etc.

Me? Just pluckin’ those strings in the mo … rnin’

Snappy outfit.
