Thanks Thommo, that was great. That kids has some freaky long fingers Ah, Mr Rhoads, think he'll always be my favourite axman.

As for learning to play, do it, you won't regret it.

FP - just wondering if you could actually learn to play guitar via 'Guitar Hero' on the Wii - cos our kid's have a Wii

Or would that just be complete bollocks

oh - Miss 15 just informed me it's complete bollocks - has buttons on the guitar, not strings apparently !

I've never seen Guitar Hero in the flesh just on tv, but it does look rather button centric.

Good resource here for when you begin your journey mate.

right handed otherwise (eg golf, cricket ....)

should have said, left handed shooting a rifle, right handed with a hand gun that's wot you get growing up in the bush in the 70's
