Has "What Key" taken over this newsgroup??? (or how do I sound better playing slide)


When I pick up my guitar and make noise with it, (I hesitate to call it playing), I usually use a slide. Sometimes I get an annoying buzzing as I start notes. Does anybody have any tips? I don't use any finger picks.

Thanks,
Patrick
