Never the drummer, always the front man and the string instruments that get all the babes.
Yeah? How about the poor roadies & sound guys???
Richard, Duke of Gloucester, rails against his sex-mad brother Edward at the start of Richard III:
And now, instead of mounting barbèd steeds
To fright the souls of fearful adversaries,
He capers nimbly in a lady’s chamber
To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.
Maybe it would be a saxaphone these days.
Nashville cats, play clean as country water
Nashville cats, play wild as mountain dew
Nashville cats, been playin' since they's babies
Nashville cats, get work before they're two
Well, there's thirteen hundred and fifty two
Guitar pickers in Nashville
And they can pick more notes than the number of ants
On a Tennessee ant hill
Yeah, there's thirteen hundred and fifty two
Guitar cases in Nashville
And any one that unpacks 'is guitar could play
Twice as better than I will
Me and a friend of mine used to do that song.
@tnorman1236 It paints a grim picture of success in the music industry, no?
I remember Dire Straights wrote a satire on how easy it is to be a hit but nobody got the joke.
I want my MTV
Now look at them yo-yo's, that's the way you do it
You play the guitar on the MTV
That ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Money for nothin' and your chicks for free
Now that ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Lemme tell ya, them guys ain't dumb
Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb
We gotta install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We gotta move these igerators
We gotta move these color TV's

The story I heard, was that Mark Knoffler wrote that song in a limo ride in NYC.
