Rohbit said...: Makes me wonder how many virtuosos I've passed and not bothered to listen to in Vancouver.

Though I always try to give money to Buskers when I have some.

P.S: Any chance the t-shirt Mai and I made would be sitting in a box somewhere, ready to be picked up by its makers :D?; 10:06 PM
Melba Toast said...: I know eh? I think he's playing chaconne in d-minor... supposedly one of the hardest violin solos on a 300 year old 4.3 million dollar stradivarius.

And to Reuben - for sure! I'll arrange for the shirt to be picked up whenever starting on tuesday at the SASC office or you could hunt me down and I could pass it off. Do you know where SASC is located?; 8:57 PM
Rohbit said...: Re: SASC Location - Not a clue :P.
Is it the building with the t-shirts in the windows across from IKBAR (Irving K Barber)?; 10:11 PM
Melba Toast said...: nein.. it's like a hole in the sub, lol. As you're coming out of the busloop and head towards the SUB (green field on the left, src on right), keep walking towards the SUB and enter the doors with green blinds (the window doors to the very right of the SUB). If you still can't find it I could find you or Mai instead, lol.; 10:20 PM
Rohbit said...: Do you have Facebook? It might make it easier since I keep forgetting to check your blog :P.
