Underground jig

On the day: 
21/02/2013 

On the way: 
There, at the other end of the carriage, a man staggers, his steel grey head jerks forward and backward, forward and further back to reveal his fiddle and the end of his bow as it skips over the strings, sawing against the substantial sound of the train and the tunnel. 
What a delight, live music on the evening commute, soothing the savage breast. An Underground gig. 
Or some lunatic miming to a mute soundtrack, for all I can hear. 

On the pod: 
Under Ice - Kate Bush
