If you know you know.

If you don't know, then there's probably no way I can sell "peculiar man plays solo mandolin for 2 hours" as a great gig idea.

I am RIDICULOUSLY excited.

A number of things
  • he's an abnormally tall skinny man with an abnormally small instrument
  • he is completely incapable of controlling his body when playing and looks like a whacky waving inflatable tubeman most of the time
  • he's quite eccentric in general
  • he has an abnormal amount of skill on an instrument not known for prodigies and can play literally any genre to the highest standard, effortlessly switching from bluegrass to a bach partita to radiohead to funk in a single song
  • he is in a peculiar amount of bands and cameos. I think he's had like 6 tiny desk appearances in different groups

I got lucky and saw a Nickel Creek video on TV in 2000.
