2. Actually, he just tries an open G chord (and fails -- wrong frets).
At least Nero could actually play the damn violin...

9. Repug Capo! Love it!
Did a gig many years ago, one guitarist had forgotten his capo. We got our monitor tech to be a "human capo" for the song ("it's like the biggest barre chord ever, and you need to hold it for the whole song").

5. Oh don't do that!
The world needs music and musicians very badly. You wouldn't give up breathing just because Stupidhead breathes.

8. Actually, I Won't
In reality, Silverspoon doesn't play the guitar. He plays WITH the guitar. There's a pretty big difference, no?

10. "I don't want to have that in common with this silverspoon moron."
Check Der Shrub's finger positioning. If you can pick up a guitar and strum one chord (ANY chord, even a barre chord) you have nothing to fear.

11. Then I Have Nothing To Fear
I know chords in 4 different tunings. So, i guess i don't have to burn them now.

12. You think Silverspoon knows the difference between phrygian mode
and refrigerator mold?

Should we ask him? Can I please, please, please?

13. He Wouldn't Know What To Call Either Of Him
I doubt he's ever actually looked inside a refrigerator beyond the beer on the door.
