The first pick I ever had I broke playing nights in white satin by the moody blues. Strumming the hell out of it by the end.
Forget about the reasons and the treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

tim uses a pick on some really fast songs(stream, kundalini bonfire, big blast of hot air) and usually uses his fingers with the other ones, he switches alot...never just plays with a pick or without a pick

probably takes me a few weeks to wear a pick down. pick slides(scrapping) and tapping mess up my picks, mostly done playing elec.

You haven't lost it yet? What do you where it around your neck?

Odd, I've never wore a pick down till it was not useable and I play like a bat out of hell sometimes. Maybe I just lose them before that point or something. But I've haven't heard of wearing them down in just 3 hours!
