There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Can't see YoYo Ma losing any sleep over this fellow. Cannot see him being accepted on the street corners of East L.A. either somehow. He will be courted by the darlings of the middle class of course until they tire of him and move on to the next fabulous thing. Interesting nontheless. Thanks for the link.
If you take the time to watch some of the other videos on this young man, including the ones from the YalePress (Yale...the Ivy league snooty university...that's were he went to school), you will find the the guy is a very talented Cellist and was a finalist in the Yo Yo Ma Collaberation contest. The beat boxing....that's just a bit of his personality coming into play...but the guy can play the Cello with amazing depth and finesse. Just someone for the middle class to amuse themselves with....I don't think so. That young man from Owensville (?) Kentucky will have a great career as a Cellist.

He is very good- I could live with out the beat boxing; its getting rather cliche, but what ever. He's no Rastapovich, but he's young'in yet, and will go far. Hey, they laughed at Mike Powers and his Ukulele. Or Bella Fleck. Classical Banjo! an Outrage! ( Joke. Whats the difference between a banjo and a chainsaw? You can tune a chainsaw!)

The gag 'Yo Ma Ma' is one of my most treasured tee's, features a grey scale YoYoMa, middle finger extended, with that caption.
