“We don't like their sound and guitar music is on the way out.”

“The multiple choices and possibilities of daily life are the music we dance to. They are like strings on a guitar. Strum them and you create a pleasing sound. A harmonic. But then start adding strings. Ten strings, a hundred strings, a thousand, a million. Because they multiply!”

“There were drinks and food in full force, and some Moroi guy had a guitar out and was trying to impress girls with his musical skills—which were nonexistent. In fact, his music was so awful that he might have discovered a new way to kill Strigoi.”

“Their lead guitar sounded like what would happen if someone wedged a traffic accident into a blender.”

“The history of music is mortal, but the idiocy of the guitar is eternal.”
