The song goes on and on

AN attempt by an Irish musician to strum his way into the record books was continuing last night after it emerged that he must play for longer than he had planned.

Dave Browne kicked off his mammoth task to break the Guinness World Record for the longest time playing guitar at 4pm on Sunday at The Temple Bar pub in Dublin and continued to pluck his way to stardom last night.

He had been told that he only had to beat the 101-hour record held by Argentinean Guillermo Terraza, but last night, Dave learned that the actual current record was 114 hours.
