Denture guitar pick   (+2, -2)  [vote for, against]
For Peter Townsend

Having watched another geezer rocker performance for the Superbowl Halftime Show, it occurred to me that these people would probably play better if they didn't have to worry about keeping their dentures from falling out. Instead, they should use their dentures to strum with, for a whole new sound. Some people play with their teeth. Well, this is one better; taking your teeth out to play.

I expect an SNL skit soon.

hah! I was thinking "they're going to have to carry Roger Daltry off stage on a stretcher" he looked like he was working really hard to keep up. anyway this is a dopey idea, good job.

I watched the Superbowl. The Who tried hard... Nice idea. I like it. Why?

Can't explain.

I have seen musicians pick their teeth with their guitar picks, but I would think a single tooth would make a much better pick for strumming than a whole set of uppers.

So, it's a tooth pick?

The logical extension of this idea is a whole array of geriatric- inclined instruments. I suggest a cane that doubles as a mike stand, a walker with attached hi-hat and bass drum, and a guitar with a "Life-Alert" button in case the player falls down while shredding and can't get up.

thusly opening a gate to all sorts of zombie-rockstar possibilities.
