Nothing on TV tonight ,so clicked on PBS low and behold a concert by David Garrett,the violinist,I did buy his DVD @ $75, now I have two dvds and 4 CDs,does this mean I am becoming a collector ?,I have never been a colector of music ,not even the beatles.
This DG is fantastic,I remember singing his praises exactly a year ago when I got out of hospital,he gave me a reason to live, I thought after the show "If I had died I would never had seen or heard this guy play"
he was quite the insperation. Also eye candy for the ladies.

Speaking of PBS, anyone caught those guys, RAIN, the beatles tribute band?

And what is wrong with being a colector ? At least it's music,unlike Rap,
heavy metal, and other excuses for music.

If you like David Garrett you probably would like Drew Tretick:
 
Disney, blah blah "...  and passing this violinist for the 5th time just as he starts playing the Theme from Dances With Wolves. Wendy stops as this a a favorite passage and she will thump him if he screws it up. Instead she buys the CD, even has Drew Tretick sign it for her."

Thanks Paladin,yes he sure is a great violinist,Wow a proffesor of music at princeston,I'm impressed.I cant say I'm wild about the electric violin,maybe if I listen a litte more until I pick up the nuances .
He did plat a traditional violin and it was very crisp and clean,no wabbles just pure music,I shall look out for him if gives a concert in Portland I shall go.
