I read the whole story, and I'd like to explain it to people who didn't: This guy is the best violin player in the world, playing the best violin music in the world, on the best violin in the world. He just did a concert that was $100 for the crappy seats. 1070 people walked by, and when called later didn't even remember him. One of the like 3 people who stopped recognized him, so that doesn't count. That leaves 2 others, who both took violin lessons when they were younger, and so they realized how good he was. Nobody else. My explanation is that maybe they don't realize it's so good because they've never heard bad classical music. The only way to listen to it is from proffesionals live or on CDs. Maybe they just assume it's the norm. Maybe not.
I'm not sure. What I do know is that you have to be looking for it to see it. I think the prime example is photography. You could just walk by something and not give it a second glance, but if you have a camera in your hands, then you see those little hidden beauties and capture them on film. You just gotta be looking. Like Clarrise from Farenheit 451.

NUMBA 1!!!1!!11!!
I'd grade this class like, a 8 out of 10. I enjoy it a lot, although we dont really know how to shut up, and Brandon keeps falling asleep in the weirdest positions ever. Also, the desks aren't created very good so that two people can play the square game together while listening to the class.
But the class is good, and I know this because I actually look forward to coming to it.
