Like when driving I do this on the steering wheel which usually drives Ellen mad. I believe she doesn't think I'm capable of driving and "playing" at the same time. She keeps on asking if all guitarists do this, and I honestly don't know, but assume I'm pretty normal, so I believe at least many do so. Do you do the same? :rolleyes: | ||
