This week's book giveaway is in the Agile and other Processes forum. We're giving away four copies of The Mikado Method and have Ola Ellnestam and Daniel Brolund on-line! See this thread for details.
I'm loving this book! I've always thought that Keith Richards maybe doesn't get all the credit he deserves. His guitar work is, to me at least, really deceptive. On the surface it might seem like really simple rock and roll stuff, but he packs a LOT into his music.
I'm really enjoying his detailed descriptions of how he and Mick learned music together.
Eliminate fossil fuel subsidies. (If you're not on the edge, you're taking up too much room.)

Yeah, I was surprised the first time I saw that clip. A lot of that is simply the drudgery of rehearsals and recording, but the way that ghost bend totally eluded him... He really wasn't hearing it. And I'm guessing he's rarely in a situation where anyone tells him to play differently.
No matter who you are, it's hard work. The magic is in making it look easy.

I couldn't quite tell in that clip whether Keith was angry or not?
