I'm about to strangle him!
He has mastered the art of playing John Carpenter's Halloween on the guitar and has decided to play it OVER and OVER!
Someone HELP!

Teach the cats how to play the guitar....maybe they'll accidentally break one of the strings.

Or heck, when he's sleeping, just remove one of the strings.

He has 3 guitars!
he'd know something was up if a string was missing on each of them

I used to play the drums as a kid but I have carpel tunnel... I have threatened to not clean the litterbox in the bedroom for a week

I feel your pain. My husband plays bass (not too bad), but he also plays sax. Do you know how loud a sax is in the house? I've stuffed towels down the bell and it still is loud! I particularly dislike anything loud - bars, TV, radio - I don't want to have to yell to be heard over all that noise.

Oh Geez..I dated a now-professional jazz saxophonist (actually, 3 of them, but one was a somewaht serious relationsship) and MY LORD THAT THING IS LOUD even when played well! He is extremely talented and I still remember getting splitting headaches.

Does he have a metal or plastic mouthpiece? Because if it's metal, I feel reeeeeally sorry for you....not only are they like 20 times louder, but they also throw the instrument waaaaaay out of tune with itself.

But then again, I own a piccolo. I use that wisely, though. Only on days when Ian is making me REALLY mad. It frightens the animals.

My Daughters cat used to sit with my son-in-law and pluck the strings with her teeth

Attempt to learn the violin
. That'll teach him. Or buy him an early x-mas present, an electric guitar (if he doesn't have one yet), with a pre-amp that you can plug into a set of headphones, then he can jack it up has loud as he wants and you won't hear any of it.

I actually play bass guitar, and my cat used to sit on the amp and sort of twitch and sway to the beat, was kinda funny.

"This is the song that doesn't end, yes it goes on and on my friend. Some people started singing it not knowing what it was, but they'll continue singing it forever just because.....This is the song that doesn't end, yes it goes on and on....."


I would keep singing that over and over again...shouldn't be too hard, because it IS the song that doesn't end.
