Like did they fix 'em up between gigs so he could smash the same one again. Did he exchanger his favorite for the smashee etc? Like I'd really hate to smash an instrument I was fond of.

Like I'd really hate to smash an instrument I was fond of. > Imagine smashing your bike just because people were paying you to do it. I always though it was the height of arrogance even when performed as a semi-sincere gesture, let alone as a near-requisite finale... "This performance is the absolute zenith this instrument could achieve. Better to smash it now, since any lesser use would be a desecration." Better to smash it, than to pass it along to someone deserving, who can continue to give/receive joy of it? Give me a freakin' break. Which reminds me. What have you got in your garage? Got parts, maybe even a whole bike, just sitting there? There's somebody out there who'd like to have them. Ask your LBS about local bike-related charities. Kathleen |
