TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

So I was wondering if anyone might recommend any resources for a "would be" Paganini.

That's awesome!

Other than saying "that's awesome", I got nothing, but I think it's awesome.

Damn, I learnt to play the violin so long ago, I can't even remember anything beyond the basic chords.  I guess wikihow and Youtube, for starters?  Oh, and don't get a synthetic material bow.  They sound awful.  Horsehair or GTFO.

Thanks! It's actually for both my wife and myself.  We're going to learn together. I learned a little when I was in elementary school and have regretted not keeping up with it ever since.

I didn't even realize they made synthetic bows.  Last night we found a girl on YT who seems to have a decent amount of knowledge.  I'm still on the lookout for other things, though. 

Ultimately, I just want to learn how to play this thing: Transylvanian Lullaby -  arranged and performed by Erutan (katethegreat19) - length 2m 53s - rated 4.99/5.0 (3336) - 91,617 views - katethegreat19 on 2012.10.29 - http://youtube.com/watch?v=qh8cV6qTwmE

Yeah it's like a carbon-fibre epoxy or something.  Horrible, horrible stuff.
