Ok, I've discovered something so beautiful and fascinating that I must share.
It's a String Quartet that does covers of rock music.
I'm listening to their covers of Red Hot Chili Peppers and Death Cab for Cutie -- I love it. If you can find it, get it, and enjoy your trip to a whole new dimension of music.

Just found two and a half gigs of their stuff. I'm looking forward to the tribute to Bjork, the Cure, Pink Floyd and Elliot Smith. Very cool.

I had a couple cd's like this years back.
Always fun to play at parties and see who knows the songs.
In other news, I have heard a musak'd version of "Helter Skelter".
Good Times,

Thanks. I didn't know of that band. Those of you who you like them you might like Apocalyptica also.

May I suggest Luca Turilli, Ayreon, and Rhapsody? They are more like symphonies than anything else.
