Bob's guitar

I saw Bob Geldof on Parkinson playing what looked like a right-handed guitar, left handedly. ie. with the thickest strings at the bottom. Is this how he usually plays guitar? Anyone know?

Yes he does - so I'm told by my husband who is a guitarist and has seen Bob perform several times

Because his school mate wouldn't let him restring the guitar he borrowed from him, he learnt to play it upside down!

Hi,


I have seen Sir Bob live in Winnipeg, and he does play left handed, with a right handed guitar held upside down.


Dec. 2, 2005 at Wimbledon for a concert this year?  I saw tickets sold on ebay!


Lets get a gang going to the concert!  I'm game.  We can meet up at the airport and go from there!    I am serious.

But I'm guessing he wouldn't be able to play it right-way-up. Or at least not terribly well.
