I'm not even a science teacher and that Miss America crap made me want to throw up.  Theology belongs in the theology classroom and science belongs in the science classroom.  End of story.

Adam Savage as Gollum singing "I Will Survive" made me laugh so hard I cried though.  That was fucking awesome.

What does the NYPD do with all its confiscated illegal fireworks?

Sets them off.  All at once.  All 5000 pounds of them.

Urge to kill rising...

Seriously, that made me very very angry. That prelude is probably my least favourite of the openings to the 6 unaccompanied suites, but even so it's a rich & profound piece of music that they've reduced to banality. The playing is piss-poor even at the opening where he (attempts to) follow the original. If Bach heard it he'd wish he never wrote the original just so they didn't get a chance to do that.

That is hella BA. Holy shit they even do Smooth Criminal.

I don't really listen to much classical music. While I can't say I think it amazing. I think it's still good.

This reinterpretation however, is awesome:

Were those carbonfibre cellos Tim? and bloody hell... they must spend a fortune on restringing bows! :D

Musical Evolution yeah!

But what I really wanted to ask you, is, I thought you didn't like a lot of movement in cello players? :p
Ass mode!

tim

yup, looked like carbonfibre - which I'm not convinced with generally, although I can understand why they'd use them in this scenario.

Yeah, they absolutely destroyed their bows. At around £40 a rehair, I can only assume they don't do that all the time - or at least they've spent serious time learning how to do it themselves (which is a skill, and which you don't play around with as a really good bow costs hundreds or even thousands of pounds - mine was bog standard and £150)

I'm not against movement per se. Unnecessary movement is a waste of energy, though, and will probably have negative consequences elsewhere. I love the way these guys manufacture a tone and sound that while not classically perfect, matches the nature of the music. They do it a lot better than Apocalyptica, who sometimes come across as a bit classical. (Of course, I'm sure these guys can do that too when the occasion demands it.)

I survived the Rapture and all I got was this smug sense of being right.

ROFL.  No, there is no way he can possibly think he doesn't sound like shit.  No amount of distortion or equipment dissonance could account for that sounding good.  It's either ego, or the misguided delusion that he's doing something different with the song that sounds good.  I did laugh, but I had to kill it before that laughter turned to either tears or bleeding ears.
