Do it.

Spence republishes Captain Beefheart’s Ten Commandments for Guitarists. May I spend more time following these than I have in the past, as they are right-fucking-on.


(5) IF YOU’RE GUILTY OF THINKING, YOU’RE OUT

My guitar attracts spirits, eh? Me, I've often had the feeling I was channeling Liam Clancy, and he's still alive, as far as I know.

Where are you living now, Mike? I haven't seen you in a while, and my short-term memory is being slowly eaten up by my new laptop...
