To the kids in band that don’t play huge concerts, or march, or practice every day.
To the kids who can knit scarves but not sweaters, or only know one pattern.
To the kids who love to draw or paint but can’t draw realistic people, or cars, or can’t shade or draw backgrounds
To the kids who can sew but can’t make a prom dress, or complicated stuffed animals, or embroider masterpieces
To the kids who don’t dedicate their lives to writing with deadlines and 50k stories
To the kids who sing but don’t take lessons or preform in bands or concert halls
To everyone who loves their talents, but don’t master them
But what about vampire history teachers. Vampires who read something from a text book then proceed to light the book on fire and throw it out the window because “No. that’s not even close to what really happened. Listen up nerds I’m about to teach you what really happened in France during the revolution”
I need this as a series

What happens when two baroque cellists perform a cover of “Thunderstruck" by AC/DC? They shred. Literally. Keep an eye on their bows as the piece progresses.
This awesome video features Croatian cellists Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser, aka 2Cellos, playing their phenomenal “BaRock style” arrangement of the hard rock classic for a completely bewildered 17th century audience. The concept is wonderful, but the actual performance is astonishing.

ok that was seriously badass. PLAY, CROATIAN BEAUTIES, PLAY WHILE I SHIP YOU.
i love the way the sound changes as the bows gradually disintegrate, too.
that was FUCKING AWESOME.
Dharmagun is correct.
This came up on my dash while I was listening to David Garrett’s version of Thunderstruck…
Sometimes I think to myself, “do I really want to buy another chocolate bar?”
And then I remember that there is a super volcano under Yellowstone that is 40,000 years overdue and when it erupts it could potentially cover most of north America in ash and create a volcanic winter that kills half the worlds population
And I’m like, fuck yeah I want that chocolate bar
