The point of the song is that if anything becomes an idol in your life, even music - i.e. your guitar, you need to get rid of it. Only One is worthy of worship.
In regards to the One Bad Pig guitars (including the onstage bit with multiple smashers), we always used beat-up old instruments, usually unplayable pawn shop jobs, to make our visual point. Shoot, some of the electrics we smashed again and again and...
@versionintegrale you totally miss the point, the guitar is only a thing, while the industry tries to lie, cheat and steel the artists work. by smashing it, you send the message that you will not be used. who made the music? who is the star. it means you will not allow them to take advantage of your hard work. it metaphorically applys to every aspect of life.
@versionintegrale You´re right. It´s meaningless and stupid. Why should it be cool just because they´re famous? Instruments deserves to be treated with respect.
my friends and I are gonna play my generation and smash our guitars at a show lol then I'm thinking about filling a lighter fluid bottle with water and pouring it on my guitar until I get attacked by security
@subliminallz shame on you. you are making music with your guitar and then you destroy it? even if i was millionarie, i wouldnt destroy that beautiful peace of life. thats what it is, your guitar is your partner and you can get to love it. but lots of people like you and pete townshend dont get it.
Umm.....Journey was where in the clip? Otherwise,it rocks! (I know the first band in the clip is not Journey....I think it's some band with Paul Gilbert,ex-Mr. Big and Racer X guitarist.)
Haha. Cool.

When someone smashes his guitar, it just tells me that it was never about the music to begin with. Those poor guitars....
