   So because of two IDIOTS, all these adjustments have to be made to avoid   
   going Deaf?   
   I think it would be better to *monitor* their volume levels and keep those   
   from being overcranked instead!!!

   Or the two Jokers could get hearing aids NOW...so that they'll hear things   
   Louder without everyone else being either Forced to, or wear hearing   
   protection, just because they insist on being STUPID!

   I do believe you might be the only guitar player I've ever heard agree that   
   blues can be boring ;)   
   Most guitar players that I've ever known, including my brother, who often   
   refers to himself as a blues man, always seem to be into the blues - and   
   even I'll get involved in it if it's a jam, but there are only so many times   
   around and around that I can go with it before I get bored to death, and   
   start playing some wild stuff to try, in vain of course, to 'liven' it up   
   somewhat ;)

   I'm glad my brother does that over here...he likes messing with plants, but   
   I'd rather than that, even play the blues ;)
