F&F had a violinist close out this mornings show. i thought he was great. They said he would play some more on the "After the Show Show" but he didn't. Did anyone catch his real name?
I didn’t catch his name. He was good but I disagree that he’s playing any kind of Rock music on violin.
He should try it on a fiddle. ;~)
I’ve e-mailed FNC programs over a dozsen times over the years. Not once have I gotten a reply.
You must be doing something not quite right ... I’ve had exchanges with Brian Kilmeade, ED Hill, Sean Hannity, Shephard Smith and Alan Colmes over the years. ;-)
He is David Garrett and he is AWESOME. I am going to see him in concert next year—can’t wait! He is German and has been playing since he was 4 years old. He studied at Julliard in New York under Itzhak Perlman.
He’s also really cute!!!
His Live in Berlin concert is playing on PBS this week in some markets-—worth watching.
Here are the songs from the David Garrett CD
Check him out (Live from Berlin) on youtube—some are just audio, make sure you watch a video because he is great to watch playing these songs.
A mix of classic and rock. He plays Metallica, Queen, Michael Jackson etc...

Thanks for the new link. I was more impressed by what he played on the reg F&F show. It showed off his skill to a greater degree. The little bits he did on the Aftert the show, just got my ears warming up, and he’d stop.
Thanks for the PBS heads up. hopefully PBS will also put the show up on their website for online streaming.
