Want to learn how to dance? Who better than James Brown to give you some dancing lessons (YouTube video)? 🙂

Check out Alex DePue’s awesome performance of Yes’ Owner of a Lonely Heart and Michael Jackson’s Smooth Criminal on the violin. Bobby Yang’s violin version of Van Halen’s Eruption is pretty damn cool too…
