I'd love to see some contemporary classical artists add like Philip Glass, Kronos Quartet, Clint Mansell, John Cage...something along those lines

last night I was at this sushi restaurant and they had a big flatscreen tv and were playing a concert by some group called Bond. 4 very attractive, rather young, scantily clad young European ladies playing violin, viola, cello, backed up by band. It was the worst shit I'd been exposed to in a while. they even played the theme from the TV show "Dallas". and apparently this is quite popular in Europe, which confirms much of what I already believed about the soccer-loving euros.

Tom, I'm guessing that you weren't dining in Fountain Hills last night.
That seems like a very odd thing for American television to be broadcasting. Anything related to Dallas, and I just assume that it's programming from overseas. But it sounds like I'm wrong here? Oh, those crazy sushi restaurateurs and their taste in television.
johnny cage made music?
finish him!

I'm going to dig up John Cage and bring him to Coachella.
That is seriously disturbing, Tom.
upcoming
Bjork doing Biophilia, 6/2 Hollywood Palladium, Los Angeles, CA
Outside Lands, 8/9-11 Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, CA
--almost, almost, almost the real thing
I would love to see Kronos Quartet and Mogwai play along to The Fountain live...I could basically die happily after that if that were to ever happen
Lots of bands at Coachella had a string section, that could be considered classical influenced. Maybe they should show Amadeus in the Coachella campgrounds next year.
