There was a time when I could tune all my instruments by ear, just pull an A 
out of the air and tune to that. 
Well, 4 years of riding in helicopters with no doors, 6 years as a Blacksmith 
and twenty years operating heavy equipment I don't hear the overtones anymore, 
I need my tuner, on the headstock, all the time, it's the lesser of two evils.

As I was recently seen in a compromising photo on the front page of a 
Wisconsin paper with my tuner on my headstock I feel the need to come 
out and say what's the big deal? 

For me it's not ideal I'll give you that but it's the lesser of two 
evils, to me it looks even more silly to be reaching in to my pocket 
and fiddling around after and many times during the middle of the 
songs. Granted, maybe I need to lighten my touch a little on the 
strings but hey I just want to be noticed I guess. 

Hopefully I'll just be able to tune by ear someday and everyone will 
be better off.
