mypasswordis Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 After googling looks like the man has been awarded yadayadayada. The violin seems big in his hands. Wow, gotta love the music industry. Funny, I know the guy who just became the concertmaster of HKPO. It seems big because he's tiny.
Torpedo Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 The guy being small was my idea, but knowing little about violin sizes and makers, it could be there was some model being a bit larger.

teufelshunde Posted January 14, 2012 Report Posted January 14, 2012 Not sure how many of us are musicians, or fomer musicians; but I found this humorously ironic. I used to play professionally and my rationales for use of the past tense are too legion to enumerate.

Weirdos | Pitchfork http://ow.ly/1KxlRZ "Part of what makes Newman such a breathtaking writer is the same thing that makes a breathtaking boxer or a breathtaking military offensive: He draws out your armor and defenses with his irony, then levels a suckerpunch to the place you're least capable of defending with the weapon you're least expecting: sentimentality."

blessingx Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) A Month (of Shows) on the Town by Robert Christgau "Usually I have a good time, and every once in a while I luck into an epiphany. I'm a record guy, always will be. But records can't match the exhilaration of the best gigs. You walk home prepared to live forever." "Jazz locates inspiration in the mortal musician, gospel in the celestial divine—while blues fans, not unlike indie fans, romanticize the grotty, beer-soaked venue itself. Where blues fans differ from indie fans—and always have, even down at the crossroads—is that they regard musicians as means to a party, and the party as the goal." http://www.villagevoice.com/2006-07-18/music/a-month-on-the-town/ Edited July 8, 2012 by blessingx
