I never claimed to be able to play them correctly, but I do like a challenge! The dog doesn't care and the missus is hearing impaired. (and wouldn't know the difference anyway!)
One of my best friends (a gifted guitarist in my last band) used to pop in from time to time to hash through various deep cuts from our favorite artists, mostly Rush and Iron Maiden. He has been incognito for the last 10 years, and that was one of his favs, so it was a personal test to see if I still remembered the important/attainable parts.

Thanks. Working from home I am in a room with my records and a practice amp, I play every day

Good luck with the audition. I played bass for years and years both full and semi-professionally. I had a bit of break once and decided to get my main guitar restrung and harmonics set and that made a HUGE difference. The thing felt much better and sounded great. I was an idiot to have waited that long but I just never had time. My point is be sure to get some regular attention for your guitars. You will be glad you did.
Incidentally, that guitar was my first major purchase when I get out of school in 1983 and I still have it. It's a coffee table-style bass and weighs half a ton so for that reason I play lighter ones these days. FWIW, it's an Alembic.

Sounds cool as hell. TBH coding jobs and band auditions work the same for me. I am rarely rejected. And this is AC/DC FFS. I'll get the gig

Good for you, Christian! A couple of years ago I inherited my Dad's electric Ovation and Guild, both from the late '70s or so. Beautiful pieces and sounding so good! They make a nice addition to my Guild 'Dreadnaught" 12-string!

Nice. Someone stole my only acoustic and I've not bought another

I'm not sure whether to call Dad's Guild an acoustic, or electric. It's got built-in pickups, but it's got a hollow body about 2" deep, and it sounds great on the small Fender amp I have left. When it dies, I have no idea where to find the tubes for it.

Guild might be semi acoustic, like a gibson 335

Just FYI, it's a long way to the top if you wanna rock n roll... even longer with a broken guitar...

My take:
A class should group related data and actions that center around a single concept. A car class might contain 4 Tire class instances as data members, an Engine instance, and a Gearbox instance. Each one has actions relevant to its operation like Engine.Start(), and Wheel.Rotate()
But I'm hearing that professors are teaching that classes are effectively a single action like ReadTextFile and it makes me a lot more irritated than I probably should be.
Am I wrong here?

I'm not a OO person but it seams like TextFile.read() encapsulates much better what action is being performed on an instance of TextFile than TextFileRead which might be applied to some unknown object that may or may not support "read". Or worse, has subverted TextFileRead to do something totally unrelated, like open a can of beer. Maybe the Profs in question are confusing an interface with a class? Dunno. Seems wrong to me.

Your take is the way I learned it.
I thought it was the way Bjarne Stroustrup intended it.
Iβve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
Iβm begging you for the benefit of everyone, donβt be STUPID.
