Finger Erections, and How to Deal with Them-- by Matthew T. Mruzek

Many guitar players experience a sensation stemming from an intense desire to play guitar called finger erections. Their fingers may become stiff, or move rapidly in what appear to be uncontrollable fidgets. 

 A Stanford psychologist coined the term finger erections, after she noticed how awkwardly several of her ex-boyfriends who played guitar behaved in social situations. 

Arcing of the fingers perpendicular to their match on each hand aggressively,  is a sure tell-tale sign that a person is experiencing finger erections on one or both hands. Fluttering of the fingers in this position is a trait of a serious condition called Digital Erectile Syndrome. 

Only a licensed psychologist or medical doctor may diagnose the condition, but side effects include not connecting socially with others, an agitated appearance, or an uncontrollable desire to buy guitars.

Do you think you may have Digital Erectile Syndrome? Don't delay in scheduling an appointment with your physician or mental health care professional today.

My voice is being silenced by the liberal media

Some people may be aware that a group I perform in, the Ill Itches, will be having a record release this Friday at the Marble bar here in Detroit.

It was partly this incident with this interview that inspired me to start writing my own blog again. I really meant no ill-will with my answers to these questions. I just felt like the questions were "leading questions". You know what I'm talking about, questions where the interviewer is really looking for a specific response from the subject. I know the interviewer wanted me to get all sentimental and retrospective ab

That time I bought a Guitar for $1 at Guitar Center

When I had just graduated high school, I was still working my job at a grocery store. I made enough money to go guitar shopping. I used to drive from rural Lenawee county to Toledo OH to get to Guitar Center. One day I heard a radio ad for a Guitar Center Labor Day Sale on September 5th, 2005. At this point in my life, Guitar Center was something I had only recently discovered. This ad was extra special... the loud demanding voice on the radio ad claimed Guitar Center was going to be selling guitars for just $1! The night before the sale, I drove down to the Guitar Center and arrived at about 10:30 pm. I began waiting at the front door of the business. I remember texting some of my friends from the grocery store I worked at, they ended up joining me about an hour later. Then, two other small town guys that went to my high school showed up randomly. The first 6 or 7 people in line, (me being first of course) were all from Lenawee county! I thought this was sort of funny because we a
