Violinists?

Topics about musical instruments other than guitar should go here. There's bound to be a Carter, LeRoi, or Yo-Yo Ma out there.

Violinists?

Unread post by DreaminBassMunky » Wed May 14, 2003 2:25 pm

I was watching BET jazz on my rather short vacation to Florida with my friends, and we found this one band that was huge, it must have had like 10 people or so. Which maybe isn't huge, but larger than normal. Anyway they had a violin player, and he put Boyd to shame. Seriously he was amazing. The band in general was awesome, but he was incredible. I was just sharing in case there are any "hip" violinists out there, that are tired of classical music and just want to break out and play something cool sometimes. I am actually a cellist so I don't get much opportunity, that's why I took up bass and guitar, cause I could feel that kind of music inside me wanting to be free. As corny as it all sounds, that's what I have to say.

Man that violinist kicked some ass. What a great vacation huh man? Too bad we didn't catch his name. It would be cool to work on doing some new stuff on the cello, and maybe even translating some guitar to it.
