Ann Arbor's Violin Monster, Zach Storey was recently photographed playing around Austin, Texas during the town's South by Southwest arts festival. The picture appears prominently in a Los Angeles Times article.

The Monster often plays on downtown Ann Arbor sidewalks while wearing a werewolf mask (and occasionally howling). He's been touring in recent months.

And the Michael Jackson dancer was banned from A2 because he danced in a ally. Good grief.

Juxtapose this with Anne-Sophie Mutter playing in the Hill Auditorium yesterday - while the Violin Monster is out of town. Can't we keep it that way?

What if it isn't just one guy in a wolf mask, but a secret cabal of violinists passed down from generation to generation? The werewolf violinist would be immortal that way!

Wouldn't venture beyond Austin much wearing that get up.
