4. What about the one in Celtic Woman who runs all around barefoot playing a fiddle?

7. I have a big problem with them I just can't get over.
And that's the fact that that is the most offensively uninspired band name of all time.

It's like, the mere IDEA of a "Celtic Woman" carries some mystical woo-woo mojo in and of itself. Would any self-respecting garage band name themselves "Wisconsin Teenager"? I think not.

6. No, says a chick who plays one.
But making the VIOLA sexy is a bigger achievement.

9. A dilution fridge, they get to a few thousandths of a degree above absolute zero.
That's pretty cool. (They also need gold-coated sapphires to run)

14. That Lay Down Sally jam by Cornmeal could be the hottest thing
I've heard in years. Mind bendingly good jam.

19. Cormeal the next semi big thing....
Really moving up the ladder. They are playing Norcal with Railroad Earth this week and those shows will be great with the cross pollination jams. Seeing Allie and Tim Carbone (RRE) jam on the fiddle will really be sweet.

But the first one I posted (ann Marie Calhoun) is the one that is really making a name for herself.

17. It's always cool watching someone do so something well
Edited on Wed Apr-29-09 09:39 AM by sammythecat
I was charmed watching this fiddle player. I don't know who she is, but she's pretty, and cool.

31. But how do they hold the bow in their tiny little wings??


There is little cooler than a woman with a fiddle (or violin).

34. Maybe- but Bob Dylan's "coke & fiddle" period can be annoying.
"Desire" has some great tracks on it- and the Rolling Thunder Tour had many great moments- but the chick with the fiddle gets on my nerves after a while.
