Violinist. I was told he worked as a ‘rube’ and that there was some comedy in the act. The fact is, he works straight, dresses straight and plays three classical selections. There is no comedy in the act and this is too late a spot for straight violin playing in one. From a musical standpoint he may be very clever performer, but straight violinists in one do not make an awful hit here 2.40. 11 min in one.
