It looks like he has had a guitar or two in his hands before this.

Except he is playing a G chord on the wrong fret.

It's not a G chord.... he has the 4th & 5th strings fretted, not the 5th and 6th... and possibly the 1st string as well. Almost looks like a C2 slid up one fret... except he has the G#(1) instead of the D(2).

I don't really know anything about it. I found this picture while searching through Google images.

This is the link to the picture.

Isn't that Mark Wills behind him?

That looks like the infamous "Playing Guitar the day after the levees broke in New Orleans" shot. August 30, 2005.

Just curious, how much does that de-value and instrument, having him hold it?
Sorry, it had to be done.

Well Caesar fiddled while Rome burned, so it makes sense that Bush would strum while we go down the toilet. <G>

Hey, watch it now fellas! Be careful forming an opinion when your only source of info is what you read in the paper or see on tv.

You would all be amazed and scared to death at what you don't know!!!   

Cheers!

OR, to quote Rummy: "There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unkowns. That is to say, there are things we know we don't know. But, there are also unknown unknowns. These are things we don't know we don't know!!!"

Probably a good idea for everyone. One of my best friends has perfectly opposite views on politics as I do. We've learned that our valued friendship is kept by not mentioning the "B" word (or American politics at all for that matter).
