Title: Gimcrackery
Post by: BossMicroBRew on April 25, 2009, 11:13:41 PM
gim·crack
n.
A cheap and showy object of little or no use; a gewgaw.

Here is a little ditty I made one night for use in a parody tribute video. Purely a wisecrack of guitar action; suitable for a "WTF?" moment and a humble snicker.

I thought it was what showed over his jeans when he was bending down fixing the kitchen sink.....

But seriously I enjoyed this, as Greeny said a cool piece of music. It's so refereshing to hear different and slightly off the wall ideas, and this is one of them.

Cheers,
