Don't Come Crying to Me

okay so a couple of things.

first i ignore rules of grammar, spelling, capitalization and punctuation, usually, so don't waste your precious time by pointing these things out. "Why yes, I do realize that blogger has a spell check. I didn't use it because it's friggin boring."

second i do try not to get serious or babble on about deep issues, though occasionally i will.

third if you can pick out the theme to all of my post titles you will maybe get a cookie or a nonsarcastic "way to go skippy" at the very least.

lastly, thanks for coming, who are you and why are you reading this? you must be bored.

shove it under old/new and call it rock or pop or bach or...

what is it about string music that makes me want to scream like a girl in the ed sulivan audience watching the beatles?

i have remembered a act called nuttin but stringz. it's two brothers who play classical violin but with a hip hip twist. it's AMAZING. i saw the episode of this kid's show Jack's Big Music Show with them on it and jumped up and down on my sofa with baby girl to it.

i have GOT to remember to get the album. anyway they are just the latest in the long list that started when i heard Enrique's cello on the psychotica album for the first time. i am so happy to hear so many bands incorporating traditional stringed instruments into their modern compositions. i feel mozart, beethoven, bach, handel et al. would be proud of what the modern musician has done with a violin and electricity.
