Hey Guys

Whassup? Somebody's closed our favourite Lisa we luv ya thread..... Is this a conspiracy? Have those evil guitar manufacturers and their henchmen refused our beloved Lisa and us bona fide crawlers a competition?..............

Help........ No prizes.......

Are we involved in an alien subplot to keep us six stringers under wraps?

Your thoughts please ladies and gentlemen..........

Considering some of the shenanagins(sp?) that go on in some of the other forums, I find it odd that a harmless little thread like that would be closed without so much as an explaination.

Lisa, what's up ?

We meant no harm.

No doubt S-

 

I think maybe its the Drummers trying to keep the guitar players down. Poor drummers always hidden by the cymbals - seems they will never get laid!!! http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/tongue.gif

 

What do you call someone who hangs with musicians?

 

A Drummer http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Another one--

How do you get a guitarist to stop playing?-

 

Put sheet music in front of them!!!!

Which thread was that? I saw the contest thread still there...but I haven't tried it yet.

 

Maybe our good natured ribbing was too much. Hmmm...

 

I know, we're bad boys, but not that bad really.

Oh, I know what it was. We were getting carried away with the goofy icons and madness, and then I responded with the Jack Nicholson thing from The Shining, and I guess that was too much.

 

We're sorry. I know, we should be practicing scales instead of being stupid on forums. But, we're guys, y'know...and guys can't help being stupid.

 

Third grade class with Miss Lisa. Khan, Simon, Guitplayer, etc...and me, are the class clowns, and we've just been told we have to miss recess.

 

Okay, all of you...50 times...

 

I will not be silly in Miss Lisa's forum.

I've been following along on the whole Lisa Contest thing. In fact i've been following along, and even occasionally, contributing some sort of mindless drivel to this forum.

 

In all this time, I still don't know who Lisa is!!! yeah i know she's the

(finger quote) "Moderator" (finger quote). But i don't know that I have ever had the privilege of reading one of her posts...??...

 

Maybe she is a mythical figure that doesn't really exist except in our imaginations.

 

Maybe she is something bigger and more powerful than all of us can comprehend.

 

All I know, is that someone ---- someTHING ---- mysteriously put a lock on a very popular thread...........

 

 

I'm going to have to check under the bed before I go to sleep tonight!!!!!!!!

Sorry for closing the thread, guys. It had to be done. Since the title was "Lisa's Contest" and there wasn't an actual contest going on, some people got the wrong idea and I got a bunch of emails from people who were trying to figure out what that was all about. I wasn't able to change the name of the thread to something else, such as "Idea for a contest," so I was forced to close it.

 

Now about the contests.... please be patient. I think it's a cool idea, but it takes time to get this stuff going and I want to make sure that we do actually have the gear available and on hand for the winners. I certainly don't want to be the one at fault for promising a prize that's never delivered. If one of you had won something and the prize never arrived, I'd never hear the end of it.

 

Sorry for any misunderstanding.

Once upon a time, in the land of the tall buildings, there lived a fair maiden who loved guitars. As a girl she learned to play them... and as a young woman, lived out her dreams by gathering a collection of over 40 of them... many rare collectable versions of her favorite guitar... the Les Paul. But she was no mere collector... she was a PLAYER!

 

Along the way she learned to repair and maintain guitars with premier skill, and eventually she decided to find employment doing this. Soon her talent became noticed, leading her to be the guitar mistress for some very "famous" people (who always go unnamed to protect their privacy!).

 

Her talent was talked about at the highest reaches of the industry... which in turn brought her to the attention of some music media types who saw that they and their readers could benefit from the knowledge and opinions of one so experienced and discriminating.

 

So... Lisa's career skyrocketed into the vast world of music industry publishing where she has held many important positions of responsibility... and she wrote many highly regarded reviews of much of the latest and greatest guitars and amps known to modern man...

 

Then, in a flash of genius, the powers that be asked Lisa to be the moderator of what has clearly become the most important, thought provoking, cutting edge, and vaulable forum on all of musicplayer.com... the Guitar Forum.

 

Now, she rides herd on the mayhem that occurs here daily... adding her insight where appropriate and blasting out a highly responded to forum thread topic or two along the way...

 

She has never lost her love for Les Pauls, and she's continuing to keep her eyes out for any new additions to her 40+ guitar collection.

 

So my friend, aframe9999, Is Lisa a mythical figure? Nearly so, but thank the heavens that she's real, and is here for all of us.

BTW, I was never worried about the other thread getting locked!

I'm still "guitplayer"!

I, KHAN(weeping uncontrollably.. http://cwm.ragesofsanity.com/s/cwm2/cwm14.gif ..) being of unsound mind and body(and morals) from this day forward, remove myself from consideration from any contest (real or imagined) in which Simon has even a remote chance of winning the most insignificant of consolation prizes.

Far be it from me to destroy a man's dreams in the twilight of his years. Yes Simon, guilt is a most effective tool in the hands of a true master. You are indeed "DA MAN" ! ! ! ! !

 

Sincerely yours,

KHAN

YEAH! Jason and the Argonauts! There were a bunch of others, too. Funny, a lot of them had the mythological theme, I mean, you didn't see that animation in other horror movies. I think that was sort of the same technique they used in "Mighty Joe Young" etc, though.

 

Yep, I'm entered in the Line 6 contest.
