Er, it's Rory Gallagher. You dolt. Maybe if he'd remembered to pack his wire cutters in his gig bag that night he could be considered as "serious about his craft" as you are, Mike. What an honor.

If they are so "serious about their craft" would it harm them to do this without a pair of wire cutters, if needed?
