A damn shame
 

A damn shame there isn't more to your post....

FIDDLESTICKS!

Crushing news. Crushing.

what? a $1,000,000 violin doesn't come with a case?

That should boost the value of the remaining violins.

Violin / Violence.......When will it end?



"I had it over my shoulder in its case and I fell down a concrete flight of stairs backward,"

good catch JR - I missed it.

Insurance fraud?

Not a terribly sturdy case, evidently.

Violin cases are meant to protect from dings, not major trauma like falling down a flight of stairs. They'd have to be twice as big and lined with inches of foam to protect a violin from something like that.

who the hell carries a million dollar violin over their shoulder like its a gym bag?

it's only fair that the prick should get looks, money and talent, but have the clumsiness to be able to fall backwards down steps. I hope, for the love of all that is fair and good on this earth, that he has a really tiny pee pee.

I've heard that the difference between a violin and a fiddle is that a violin is carried in a case and a fiddle is carried in a sack.
In hindsight, that might not be such a bad idea, for a priceless, irreplaceable instrument.

Although I guess if he had hindsight he wouldn't have fallen over backwards.

If I had broken a million-dollar violin that can't be replaced.... I'd probably be using the remaining strings to strangle myself to death.

Even if he does, hot women will line up around the block.
