I once came in the house from the garden to get a drink of juice. I still had the side cutters I was working with in my hand and as I passed a mandolin hanging on the wall, for some inexplicable reason decided to cut the first four strings right through and made a pinging noise as I did it! Sort of the death throes of a mandolin string. I knew what the result would be I just couldn't help myself! It's the same as when you used to cut the hair off Sindy - no reason - end result - disappointment! So what daft and compelling destruction have you done just for the hell of it and a split second later thought what the f*** did I do that for? |

"If the mandolin was tuned you're lucky one of the strings didn't take your eye out."
I wasnt close up to it I sort of just pinged it as I went past.... see senseless. Besides, explaining myself without sounding like a lunatic to the disgruntled owner was far worse than injury! |

I hadn't realised the mandolin wasn't yours. That's almost unforgivable.
Banjos however are fair game. Vandalising a banjo is to commended whenever possible. |

In my defence I pointed out I had bought it as a gift after all... cut no ice.. musicians are weird though... nope that didn't cut any ice either.. |

...ouch! Same as polishing the dash on your dads car and popping the lighter till it glowed red and you just knew it was daft to touch... it left a horrible white coiled burn!! The stink was vile... but you did it time and time again lol... |
