FIDDLECHICKS.com The world's 1st website dedicated to women on electric violin

October 29, 2005 at 4:25 PM

I found this website, talking about hot violin chicks, in the “violin discussion “about Julia Fischers website, where Jim introduced the term ‘beautiful hot violin chix’. 2 well known names on it for readers of violinist.com are Vanessa Mae and……Linda Brava (Linda Lampenius) All chicks you can find here:
http://www.fiddlechicks.com/database/results2.asp?WhichForm=4 Perhaps some chicks of violinist.com can join the list of fiddlechicks.com ?
Here some arbitrary foto’s (first one Chickie, than Martha Mook than Nicole Yarling) from that site, where you also can find a biography of those chicks, from whom Marta Mook played with David Bowie:



Why there is not a website called: www.fiddlecocks.com ? Are men discriminated here? The best well known electric violinists, I know, are Jerry Goodman (he played in Mahavishnu Orchestra with guitarist John Mac Laughlin on the album Between Nothingness and Eternity, live 1973, soundsamples on: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000252D/qid%3D1130602287/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/102-2913149-1296959 ) and Jean-Luc Ponty, http://www.ponty.com , from whom I have his late 70-ties cd’s Enigmatic Ocean 1977 and Cosmic Messenger, 1978 listen on this website for soundsamples :http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000002I9J/qid%3D1130602090/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/102-2913149-1296959 . The last LP I got from schoolfriends, because it was more sturdy to play (electric) improvise violin in a band at school than playing written notes on a wooden violin in a classical symfony orchestra. Ponty and Goodman are hairy guys like Jim and André Rieu.

I've said "hot violin chix" and "beautiful violin chix" but I don't think I'd say "beautiful hot violin chix."

There's also skanky, lanky, round, profound, tall, small, and cyclothymic violin chix.
