But yes, played by someone who doesn't know what they're doing, any musical instrument would work for tax collection. Heck, give me an out-of-tune guitar, and I'll make 'em pay while trying to perform 'Smoke on the Water' by ear. And, as the last resort, you get a band of bagpipers and violinists who not only can't play their instruments, but are also drunk! We should take this to the IRS... --The Jaded Falcon "Boo!"

NO! Dont do that. With that kind of power in their hands, there's no telling what could go underway! It would be THE END OF EXISTENCE as we know it! Or at least the end of our hearing.

Quite possibly the greatest idea ever. Perhaps in the Americanized version we could have guitar players thrashing solos with their amps set on 11.
That might be counterproductive with some audiences though. It'd be like getting a free concert at your house.

That would work almost too well. Just I have a better suggestion then drums. Have any of you heard a woodwind squeak? It is worse then nails on blackboard. I honestly can't say how bad a violin would be but I bet it is comparable. Just be careful because there will be that jackass the instead of paying goes out and joins them.
