| Me too. Steel was an important component of the Detroit punk sound. |

Larry Fine, Not far Off:
As a child, Larry's left arm was badly burned from acid used by his father in the jewelry business. Larry required immediate attention, and a skin graft was done on his arm. Larry's doctors recommended that he be given violin lessons as a form of therapy. Playing the violin was supposed to strengthen his damaged arm muscles. Larry's skill as a violinist became so impressive that eventually he began to play professionally. Larry played in local theater amateur nights
usually taking top prize. Interestingly enough, along with being a violin player he also was a boxer. |

Unfortunately for Mr. Fine, he was always sandwiched between the brothers Howard (we won't talk about Besser and DeRita) - and they were going to keep the NYUKs "all in the family". My brother and I have this concept of the "Larry Line": whilst Moe and Curly (or Shemp) would move the plot along with their lines, or get the laugh, etc., Larry was stuck with the throw-away lines, e.g.:
Moe: We'll have beer to wash our clothes in!
Curly: We'll have beer to take a bath in!
Larry: (Lamely) We'll have beer galore.
Yes, life was cruel. But what can be learned from the "Larry Line"? One thing is this - even the best and most eloquent among us is capable of uttering a "Larry Line", and we usually know when we've done it - when you make what you think to be a witty or pithy contribution to a conversation which is followed by a moment of embarrassed silence and then the resumption of said conversation, as though you were not there. This post itself, is in danger of becoming a "Virtual Larry Line". Only time will tell.

| Larry Fine was also a decent piano player, just saw one the other day on AMC. Knew he played the violin----but the others are a surprise. |

This photo is obviously faked. Everyone knows steel players never smile while performing

Hmmm….well judging by the “afro” I would say it was Herb Steiner in the early 70’s in LA! No, wait a minute…the Herbster has a full head of hair. Ok, I’ll go with Larry Fine. I had heard that he was a “fine” musician (no pun intended), but I never knew he was a steel player.

Another shot. Judging by the hair-do it could be from the 70's.
