Suggestions for future festivals

[Mike_S]

Not to mention playing guitar with his teeth

ah yes, playing with teeth (...or dentures, for the older ones) should be mandatory in this festival

But maybe no setting fire to your guitars guys... not for me this one anyway!!

But maybe no setting fire to your guitars guys

Yes Mike...breaking a guitar on stage is a crime against musicality whether JH (Jimmy Hendrix) and JH (Johnny Halliday ),  like it or not

Cuthbert, you are right. I don't think anyone here would be interested
in setting their favorite guitar on fire.

There might be a weirdo or two here that would be interested in peeing on it.
Feel free to give up names.

Speed Demon say

There might be a weirdo or two here that would be interested in peeing on it.

there's a French expression "peeing in a violin"  to indicate the total uselessness of the action so qualified.

the equivalent in English would be "to brush the dog"
 in the United States "you can't get blood from a turnip" or "pissing into the wind
in Italy (Sicily) "Fari minchiati"

...and in Latin "Ligna in silvam ferre" (carrying wood in the forest)

in Italy (Sicily) "Fari minchiati"

Merci, JP!  Now:
