GREENSBURG, Pa. -- Things you should not do at home: imitate Jimi Hendrix at the Monterey Pop Festival.

A Greensburg man has suffered burns to his lower legs after telling police he was torching his guitar Wednesday. Police say David Kemerer set fire to his guitar in his apartment, and debris littering the floor also ignited.

Hospital officials aren't releasing information on Kemerer's condition, citing privacy laws.

3. He Should Have Observed Jimi's Technique More Carefully
The guitar was lying prostrate on the stage before Jimi applied the lighter fluid and ignited it. Jimi didn't take any chances on burning his lightnin' fingers pulling that stunt. The fool mentioned in this article needs to be kept away from any & all firemaking apparatus until he grows a cerebral cortex.
