Off the cuff slide guitar

If you watch Firefly for any length of time, you start wanting to a) play slide guitar, b) live in a ramshackle yet lovable ship c)and uttering awesome quips.

I tuned my guitar to an open C, worked out a couple of licks that worked, and messed about for a couple of days before filming some of it. Very standard stuff, it's essentially based around three frets, but that doesn't stop it from being cool. My lack of talent is what would stop it from being cool. You can hear that well enough without me pointing it out. It does go on a bit, I know.

It does help if you want to beat someone in an argument. You say something crushing and then very quickly play a lil' western riff THUS ENDING THEIR LIFE before they can respond. True fact.
