This may be a short thread if somebody knows the answer, but you know how Chris throws his guitar high into the air at the end of "God Put a Smile Upon Your Face" (live obviously)? And it crashes to the stage….One can only assume it is broken in some way shape or form. Anybody know what happens to those guitars? Are they given away, auctioned off, fixable?? I saw both shows at the Beacon Theater in NYC last year. Each show had its own guitar take the plunge…always wondered what happened to them. Its a cool move though.:guitarist::smash:

The Oracle answered this on November 19, 2012; they were usually fixed if there was any damage:

Wow thanks so much for that reply!

I think I asked this on Twitter, on how many guitars have been broken playing this song live. Reading really helps, right?
