Happy LoTM Day, A 5 note roll cheer to all

It's a small space, in the basement where squeaking and shrieking are muffled, that is, until that day I can emerge and play LoTM...It's now been years... and I'm still in the basement- my student violin #1 - it sounded awful, my uncle's violin - same problem.... so I made a few violins... and they don't sound so good either, sort of like scrapping cats.... Do miracles exist? Is there magic out there that will make this happen? Maybe this shared experience will be the miracle needed to finally climb out of the basement! Looking forward to learning from others who too want to leave those awful cat sounds behind!
