Announcing... RiffMasters!

I really don't want to do this but I have to bow out of the competition. I have arthritis. It is getting worse. I spent three hours yesterday working on the punk rock challenge. Today I am in a lot of pain and can barely use my right hand to pickup my morning coffee. I really enjoyed the challenge of expanding my repertoire to genres I wouldn't have considered. I'm going to have to take a day off work which I can't afford. Sorry, but I'm out.
Sorry to hear that , get better.

Geez man. That explains the solo.

Ok we have ONE Official Guitar Duel in. We will now wait a few days to see if @Kerry Brown can beat back the creepy grasp of Father Time to present his plate 'o punk.

And also jtcnj as well!

I have to say @Ku² brother, that was laying it down with authority. @ibmorjamn did not shy away AT ALL and blasted off his whole magazine straight in Ku's direction. But did he hit any major arteries? Time will tell.

The real battle is between him Kerry and jtcn in that cleverly aforementioned damage à trois!

A Most Interesting evening here in the Riffmasters ring, indeed. MOST INTERESTING! And ENTERTAINING!

Unfortunately there is no getting better only learning to cope. I have to cut back on the amount of time I spend playing and allow for recovery if I over do it. I'm organizing a monthly jam so I'm focusing there for now. Still hoping to get time to post some punk. My right arm is much better today.
 
Didn't sleep a wink last night. Sinus headache, my head is splitting. Face feels like it's gonna pop off my skull.
Sorry to hear that. Hopefully the pressure goes away and you start feeling better.

I've fought migraine/muscle tension headaches since I hit puberty. (I'm sure there's a joke there somewhere) My 3 year younger brother used to raise hell on me.... especially when he knew I wasn't feeling great. Fighting a really bad headache..... till he was in Jr High and got a really bad sinus infection and the accompanying headache. After he got better, one day he said to me.... "I am so sorry I messed with you so much when you had those headaches." And after that he always gave me space when I had a migraine. Now he didn't stop screwing with me.... we are brothers after all, its what we do.... just not that way.

There's ALWAYS the possibility of getting better! It's a matter of whether or not you are willing to make lifestyle modifications. I have a similar issue caused by my injury. I was poisoned by a coral in a customer's reef aquarium. Palytoxin. It's usually deadly. My fingers get pins and needles so bad I can't feel anything, but I also have that crippling arthritis type pain where the joints of my fingers get inflamed. I do 30/40/50 day juice and water fasts. Try avoiding sugar and dairy for a couple/ few days and see if you have any improvement.

First. Give me a minute, I'll figure something out.

Second. @Kerry Brown rest those music makers, no sense in causing possible injury.

and Lastly @Ku² , what's 30/40/50? and also, what is the keyboard shortcut to type the little "squared" 2 in your screen name?

Lol, I did it on my phone. Long press. They need to start making keyboards with long press keys. That would be SWEET. 30/40/50 is, 30 day fast, or 40 day fast, or 50 day fast. I've done all 3. When I tell you I'm 53 and the ladies think I'm in my mid to late 20s, it's no joke. I don't get carded at bars, (usually because I know all the owners from gigging), unless it's some chick that doesn't believe how old I am. The REAL secret, the REAL Fountain of Youth, is, (looks left, looks right to make sure no one is listening, then whispers...), Amrita. A.K.A. P***y Juice. I don't mean to sound crass or vulgar. When I tell some women that, they either blush and giggle, or they straight up get offended and walk away in disgust. It's a Crap-Shoot, my friend. It's ALL a Crap-Shoot.(not to be confused with Crap Chute)
 
So... we know that @Ku² has send a strong message with the first official of 3 Punk'd Guitar duel submitted which will eventually score two fellas at least seven points inside a few days. Where is @jtcnj ??? @Clockworkmike is about to have some company way up there sittin' at 12 points!jtc

Even more fun is... the eventual Guitar Duel winner is going to earn at least 14 points launching him even above @LiveeviL2000 who's probably sadly packing his things knowing he's about to be evicted from the Riffmasters Penthouse premises. The girls can stay tho, bcz juice box diet

@jtcnj - the Guitar duel was revealed by Ku2 on Friday at 2:24PM CST.

So, you and @Kerry Brown have until MONDAY at 2:24 PM to drop your
competing punk submissions in, or @Ku² very well may be lording over all of us

It's all in your hands men, he's clearly insane, and unfit to rule. He may impose his infamous
juice box diet upon all of us, command us to go commando, and Lord knows what else.
I'm honestly stuck here. Perhaps we need a forum lockdown and mail in ballots.

Sorry, but that's the way she goes. I didn't make the rules....
Um, ok well maybe I did.
