He kept on going after that for a bit...changing strings (no, duh) and key to another string! Good for him!--Knows plenty about the violin..and THAT is an UNDERstatement!--joni

You guys play GREAT together. The chemistry and the music is right on!-Joni

Ha! The clothing/fashion really makes a "statement" (Fashion statement!) huh? Ha-Ha! Divar (Hello, Divar!! It's Joni!!!)) wrote "I can guess by his T-shirt!"--Joni

Wonder if he gave the lady free tickets to his concert, because she helped him out. (I'm kinda joking here) I got a kick out of when David said, "Zero direction" Yeah, been there (Chicago) done that..went down a street in Chicago in 2003 whichI really did not wish to be on! Backtracked to the "ma...

When David put the glass down..wow what a cool tone it made when it "hit" the table! Buong! He's just so musical..he does not know it! Just joking here, folks!--Joni

This stuff promotes DG even more so I don't "see" the issues here..Maybe I am "blind"!--Joni

You got some GREAT vids and thank you..From Joni

That is me saying, "Thank you, David" at approx 1:20. I do not like my voice but I wanted to thank him!--Nice gift you gave him. "Is that for me?" he said. That was sweet and of course he Thanked you! I'm sure David appreciates our appreciation!--Yes, he looked very tired. Needs much rest and to ...

Sound of water..and David taps bow against violin for a very cool sound effect! This is soooo cool!--Joni

Virtuosity on a grand scale. Thank you very much for sharing!--Sincerely, Joni

@72bleep Thanks for the translation. Working while one has a cold. I hear ya on that one. I still go to work when I'm sick. Don't like staying at home when there is much work to be done! and my clients to take care of!--Joni

You can fix your hair anytime you want! Your being annoyed by your hair was good for us! I'll buy you a new ponytail holder howzzat?--You are fun AND funny! David. Stay as you are!--Joni

Reminds me of my former guitar teacher..those EYES!--Thanks for these great pics!--Joni

YEAH!, Baby!--"THE BIG THREE"!--Joni

Classy car for a classy violin player and guitar player too! YOU GO MARCUS on that guitar!--Guys, take a bow and go for a tour in your Audi--Hey I Audi get an Audi too! Ha-Ha!--Always joking around--Joni

@barbara4221 Here! Here! (I'm raising a glass!) Ditto Barbara!--Joni

I'd forget how to breath while playing...gotta breath! David you are a force of nature, man! WOW!--Joni

@fashizix --Practice makes PERFECT. MOST of all..Enjoy what you DO play!--Keep at it!--Joni

@djtron1x --Me too! Wanna study together? Actually I picked up a violin a year or so ago...Having played guitar makes it a bit easier..the fingers are already curled..but alas..NO FRETS! I love it because it's FREE like SLIDE guitar--Joni

Just goes to show you have to stand "up" for yourself and not take it too "hard". And for heaven's sake, don't make a federal "case" about it and get all "strung"... out! David did say in an interview if he was not a violinist, he'd be a stand "up" comedian! I would have wrung their "necks" or sl...

I caught some of the German words here...such as left ,with, shops/stores, very, really, believe, fantastic---Hmmmm...."waxing sentimental"-Wax figures creeped me out as a kid and probably would now too! Cannot say for sure!--Joni

@ENJspeechie Great! Thanks and with guitar you just shake the neck around ala Kurt Cobain! Kidding! Vibrato on guitar is you kinda are bending the strings up and down across the fret board..do NOT do that with your violin strings however!--Joni

I've said it before but I'll say it again..You "tear it up", guys!--Joni

Nick, This is nice! Nice, this is Nick! You have great, simple, easy instruction! Thanks!.--Joni

"Tore it up" (Thanks to Colin for this great expression!)..you two! Hey your CAMERA man (being filmed himself) is too handsome! Marcus...WOW, Man! WE CAN HEAR YOUR GUITAR! YES! Left leg keeping the rhythm..whilst DG's right leg keeping the beat/rythym. Cross signs in the background point to Lon...

I heard this gorgeous piece on Boston's all classical radion station..I sat in my car outside a bookstore before going in....because I was just ***totally*** MEZMORIZED...I love Mr. Milsteins' style and phrasing...dynamics and technique---Joni

Just as I love the way David Garrett plays the violin..I also love the style that Nathan Milstein played violin. It's their "phrasing"...give different people a paint brush and they are all going to paint differently showing their "true colors" so-to-speak. That's a nice Strad, David..you are a l...

@KittyPlaysViolin --AMEN to that! Give several different painters the same kind of paint brush and the same kind of canvas and they all paint differently. *"*They express THEMSELVES artistically** Kitty..you play violin? Oh TEACH me!--Joni

Love that Strad and the sailor in me loves David's anchor necklace! Very nice --I love the way he dresses..!--David is definitely "IN THE ZONE!"--Joni

@gentlehorseman I do not think I ever thanked you for the link! Working on my violin on Si Bheag Si Mhor Celtic Tune which Russell Crowe and Thirty Odd Foot of Grunts played..Russell put lyrics to it and the title of the track is called "Judas Cart"--Sad divorce story but he sang it as though it ...

Very nice material, Marcus! It's really *something special* in my opinion to be able to play guitar and sing at the same time! Would love to see you play in local cafe..Gloucester, MA is a mecca for single performers and bands alike so come to "Glosta" (as the Gloucester folks pronounce it!)--You...
