It is a haunting and very famous piece of work but would you ever pay that much for a piece of art ? Even if you did have the money ? http://uk.news.yahoo.com/scream-sells-reco...-001754463.html You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

They had no clue that's what it was and got it appraised after pulling it out of storage. A museum gave them 300,000,000 (that's right, 300 million) dollars for it. Maybe it's because I am not an art buff, but that's just plain stupid to me. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
