- For some unknown reason, I've always thought "Piss Christ" was a
- pun on the French "piece Christ", meaning a figurine of Christ, a small
- statue. I'll admit my French is horrendous; am I totally wrong here?
- Was the artist French? Could his statement have been about the degrading
- of Christ by the selling of obnoxious little figurines?

- OMC: A recent Guitar Player asked their writers/editors to list great
- guitar albums/bands, for possible xmas gifts or something. A few Allmusic
- notables were Sharrock's _Ask The Ages_, Flecktones _UFOTOFU_, Praxis, Bill
- Frisell _Where In The World_. Some others I can't remember. Heh, they're
- almost as hip as us. Almost....
-
- They also mentioned a Django Reinhart album where he "plugs in", meaning
- he plays electric guitar I guess. First I've ever heard of that. Anyone
- got any info on it?
