i dont think you need to buy a travel guitar. the sound is usually so bad from those things and its really not that much more convenient than strapping a regular sized gig bag across your back...

dude, you gotta see orange county. any man that can still make me laugh by falling down deserves an oscar, and any guy that can make me laugh by singing a song about gay eskimos deserves a grammy.


lol, the pot scene in the admin building w/ that girl was the freaking best. especially when he's trying to explain to the fireman (ben stiller) why the place burned down. lol, im goign to go home and watch that movie again.

I don't know what's been said, and I don't feel like reading through this thread, but all I have to say is that the only use for Martin backpackers is firewood.
