I'd choose the sex over playing Steel because I'm lazy.
It takes two hands to play the Steel. :lol:

There's less setup and tear down involved in sex so to speak.

the best scenario is playing a great gig, meeting a very stimulating woman who raves about how well you played while you're having sex after the gig.

Eer!!!...I aint saying......but I guess the first time was when I played Banjo in a Jazz Band when I was about sixteen...in the rehearsal rooms....its OK if the band are playing something like St Louis Blues....or Corine Corina........but gets a bit difficult when the next tune is something like High Society or Tiger Rag...pretty difficult to pick up all the chord changes whilst doing other things....well I guess I must have managed allright because she came back the next week to practice..... and requested us to play................as she sat on my Knee while I was playing Banjo.........Äint What You Do But The Way That You Do It !!!!!!!!

I'd say it depends on who you are playing with, and whether the "band" is a duo or a trio. :twisted:
