He continues to find endless sound to pull out of his violin. The universe is a better place because of this...

simply beautiful, no words can do This guy justice in his creative way of relaying the inner most parts of his heart, mind and soul, out there for the whole world to see... I only wish i could be that brave. Hs music comes strait from the heart.

He literally has become a translator for the violin, although they have their own unique language and it's the most beautiful thing watching him and his violin...it amazes me the sounds he can conjure from his violin- it's a love dance and Andrew Bird is a genius, a genius with respect- there's a mutual love between him and his violin.

This version of tin foil is easily the finest I've heard. It just has this perfectly somber feeling that isn't in the original

Andrew Bird can not be over-rated. His music is like the spirit of joie de vivre. Bonus- his guitar accompaniment, Madison Cunningham, is a fantastic breakout musician in her own right.

This version of "Gentle On My Mind" (1:49:40) is so good and I love singing along to it, so I typed up the lyrics in case anyone else wants to sing along too. "Gentle On My Mind" It's knowin' that your door is always open And your path is free to walk That makes me tend to leave my sleepin' bag rolled up And stashed behind your couch And it's knowin' I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds And the ink stains that have dried upon some lines It keeps me on the back road by the rivers of my memory It keeps you ever gentle on my mind It's not clingin' to the rocks and ivy Painted on their columns now that bind me Or somethin' that somebody said Because they thought we fit together walkin' And it's knowin' that the world will not be cursin' or forgivin' When I walk along some railroad track and find And you're movin' on the back roads by the rivers of my memory Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind Though the wheat fields and the clotheslines And the junkyards and the highways come between us And some other woman's cryin' to her mother So she turned and I was gone Well I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind But not so that I cannot see you movin' on the back roads Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind It's the shadowed creek and autumn leaves that make me turn inside myself in silence Cross legged now I sit and watch the endless chase of leaves across my yard And layin' down my hair brush I lean back within my window seat and find That you're movin' on the back roads by the rivers of my memory Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind With cupped hands 'round a tin can I pretend to hold you to my breast and find That you're wavin' from the back roads by the rivers of my memories Ever smilin', ever gentle on my mind

We went right up to the very front and stayed there the whole night, and I swear Madison looked over and smiled at us once or twice when they were around the single mic, haha. Just discovered this video now and it was like reliving the experience, what an incredible night that was!
