MADE OF SANDALWOOD
I was supposed to see Anal **** play tonight. I drove over an hour to see them play. However, when the time came for them to play, they were not there. I was looking around furiously for anyone in a wheelchair but didn't spot Seth, or anyone else. So, I waited. And waited. Then some dude and a girl got up on stage and started playing guitar and singing. They did this for about 10 minutes and then started tuning and retuning. I'm sitting at the bar having a drink and hear a loud crack. I look over and dude's slamming a Les Paul around! I walked over and asked if I could have it, and he said yes! So, even though I didn't get to see the beauty of Anal **** live, I did score a damaged LP for free. Looks like there's only body damage and only one part of it actually goes all the way through (mostly near the control cavity), so it should be a pretty easy fix. It needs new tuners and I'll be giving it a paintjob, but other than that, it's in really good shape. I am happy, and tired. Good night!

Pictures please.
 
Scoring a free LP is way awesome, but man, its a MAJOR bummer you didn't get to see AC. I caught them a few weeks ago and it was a blast.
 
congrats on the free les paul. what's the story with the guy slamming it around? why didn't the band show?
 
I knew someone who listened to AnalC.u.n.t back in the day. He was kinda of gay I think. But AC is even a more queer name than Assück or the Ass Ponys.
 
Eh, never really got into Assuck. I used to be pretty into grind but fell out of it quickly when I started playing in a grind band. AC still holds a special place in my heart. No clue why they didn't play, apparently they said they were on their way and an hour later, still nothing. By the time we left there were only about 10 other people still waiting. It's weird, when I got there I said "it would be funny as shit if AC didn't play." We laughed the whole way home. Good times. I don't know why the dude was slamming it around. I think one of the dudes from Music Hates You (by the way, they are fucking awesome) gave it to him and then dude couldn't tune it and decided to smash it? However it happened, I win!

Edit: Replace a few occurrences of "dude" with "guy" or "dipshit." Massive overuse of a dumb word.
 
Well he threw one down from the top of the stairs
Beautiful women were standing everywhere
They all got wet when he smashed that thing
But off in the dark you could hear somebody sing

Chorus:
Oh it breaks my heart to see those stars
Smashing a perfectly good guitar
I dont know who they think they are
Smashing a perfectly good guitar

It started back in 1963
His momma wouldnt buy him
That new red harmony
He settled for a sunburst with a crack
But he's stIll trying to break his momma's back

Chorus

He loved that guitar just like a girlfriend
But ever good thing comes to an end
Now he just sits in his room all day
Whistling every note he used to play

There out to be a law with no bail
Smash a guitar and you go to jail
With no chance for early parole
You dont get out tIll you get some soul

Chorus

Late at night the end of the road
He wished he stIll had the old guitar to hold
He'd rock it like a baby in his arms
Never let it come to any harm

Chorus
