When the Trickster Starts a-Pokin'...

Having seen both Gogol Bordello and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds in the space of a month, I've come to the conclusion that a truly spectacular band requires two important elements.

1. A Really Big Moustache


Nick Cave

Eugene Hutz


2. A Crazy Violinist


Warren Ellis

Sergey


So obviously any of you out there with a band that doesn't have a very big moustache and a crazy fiddler in it is just going to have to try harder. And no, a beard isn't good enough!

I think you mean crazed bearded fiddler?

Would Neil count as a crazy bearded fiddler?

Kiddy-fiddling doesn't count, I'm afraid.

I think you should grow the moustache first... I'm sure it will help you play better!

perhaps you are right, this way i would put myself in the appropriate mood for violin crazyness...

it'd be better if your violin players there had massive taches and no beards. I do not trust men with beards, but I'll give moustache wearers a certain cautious respect.
