Empty 12oz beer bottles seem to be tuned to right around g#. I'll try to conduct research this weekend to see what tones 22 and 40 oz bottles can produce when blown over. I am as of yet unsure what notes a breaking glass bottle makes but i theorize that that they will be overtonal derivatives of G# as well. When a bottle meets another object with some force, the glass particles are suddenly forced to resonate and so theoretically, they will produce the resonant frequency of the bottle.
applications:
1. slam a beer during a song at the show and then blow over it right when the band plays a g#.
2. if your band sucks, write songs in G# so that when people throw bottles at you, it is in key.
A tribute to small futile projects and general random thinking
