(btw, what's wrong with actually spelling god?)

It's a tradition in the Jewish faith.  I suppose someone who is actually Jewish could explain further, but in short, using or spelling out the name of God is taboo.

There also might have been a die hard Floyd fan out there who would spot that it's written like that in the sleeve note lyrics for Take it Back from the Division Bell album. But I guess I'm the only one sad enough to know that  :toothy11:
Also, I don't know entirely about the Jewish thing but I'm not sure if it's wrong to spell out God in all it's forms, or just Yahweh as the personal name of the God of Israel. (Talk about hijacking your own thread lol).
 
This kinda reminds me of a line that Ryan Stiles had during "The Drew Carey Show" once. In one episode, they were discussing how bad their friend Kate was at singing...

Lewis (Stiles):  Ya ever start a car with a cat sleeping on the intake manifold?
Drew (Carey):  Uhhh....no.....
Lewis (Stiles):  Then yeah, that's the worst thing you've probably ever heard in your life.
 
Lasted 1:20 before the pain kicked in.... "There is no pain you are receiving...." RUBBISH! I was in agony.. :sad:

There's some decent gear up on stage, so this vid is one for the argument about practice & talent being more valuable than any gear you'll buy... :icon_thumright:
