I got hired as a synth programmer on an album date that Mr. Fagen was playing keys on...he's a weird dude, and that's coming from me, a weird dude.

Hey Fritz-
   Repectfully considering your relative "weirdness", have you ever come close to torching an instrument?

Oh man, I had really cheap copy of a LesPaul when I was in my teens that just would not stay in tune, I mean, never.  But in my stubborn pig-headedness I kept using it and suffered the glares of bandmates for a summer till I ditched it for 1/4 of what I payed for it.  Many gigs I came close to using it as a baseball bat.

Maybe I am being particularly humourless today, but I don't find muchamusement in acts of vandalism like this.

I wince when people destroy instruments, art, or books.  For me, that is the only real sacrilege.
