      In his first appearance on the tv show Iron Chef, a young Bobby Flay went up against legendary Japanese Chef Morimoto. Flay won the closely battled competition. In a celebratory outburst of excitement, he jumped up onto the counter, and stood on his cutting board with his arms stretched out, as to take in the applause from the crowd. In a post-competition interview, Morimoto congratulated Flay on his win, but also said that he was really bothered, and upset because of the way he stood on the cutting board. He explained that the cutting boards & knives are the sacred tools of a chef, steeped in tradition, and should be honored as such. He said it was an incredibly disrespectful act, and had it been him who did that, it would have likely cost him his career as a chef.
      I feel the same way about musicians who destroy their equipment, as a lot of the best sounding vintage guitars & amps that are sought after for their quality & reliability, are often painstakingly crafted & made by hand. Destroying them onstage is disrespectful, and an insult to the people who made them. I like Pearl Jam, but this hurts my soul.

      That was early on in Jimi’s career and only done a few times for specific reasons to what was a cheap fender guitar at the time. Once in London and three times in US 1967-68. He would break one guitar, have it repaired, then smash it during the finale playing the smash-able one for just the one song. I think it was bought at a pawnshop or 2nd hand store. He was 25-26 years old and was far from a millionaire did not own a home etc. Apples and oranges here 2023 elderly rock stars with $20k of amps & equipment.
