Perfect Mismatch
After a gap of years, i happened to go to listen to the Light Music Solo at the Inter-hostel Lit-soc competition here. As expected, it dint start on time and when junta started to perfrom, it was utter chaos.
Nobody who played the guitar, were able to have it tuned properlly. There was a mismatch in the tuning of most guitars, lest we worry about what they played on them. Wrong notes were rather common and the people who sang along had no clue of what is the pitch the guitar was tuned to.
I could barely manage to sit for about less than an hour.
If you are confident enough to perform in public, but dont have the faintest idea of how to tune the instrument you are playing, you might as well find the nearest well to jump in.
