The Chiara String Quartet, a touring classical ensemble that likes to hang around in bars, is playing this Saturday at the Brick. Pitch staffer Chris Packham has anticipated your questions and provided answers.
Q: Is chamber music the new punk rock?
A: Yes.
Q: Is the Chiara String Quartet the new Sex Pistols?
A: No, the Chiara String Quartet is the new Black Flag, which makes violinist Julie Yoon the new Henry Rollins.
Q: So who is the new Sex Pistols?
A: I dunno. What’s really, really overrated right now? How about Zach Braff? Zach Braff can be the new Sex Pistols.
Q: So, is 18th-century ballroom minuet dancing the new slamdancing?
A: Yes. I mean, no.
Q: What’s the new fatal heroin overdose?
A: Fatal laudanum overdose, duh.
Q: Who else is in the Chiara String Quartet?
A: Violinist Rebecca Fisher (the new Greg Ginn), viola-ist Jonah Sirota (the new Kira Roessler), cellist Gregory Beaver (the new Bill Stevenson). As it turns out, their latest album, Leyendas: An Andean Walkabout, is the new Fear of a Black Planet for some reason, but the judges are reviewing that call.
Q: Where can I see them perform?
A: At the Brick (1727 McGee Street, 816-421-1634) on Saturday, November 10th at 9:30 p.m.

You made some good points there. I did a search on the topic and found most people will agree with your blog.
Compound Pharmacy has gained much popularity in the field of medicine. The medications are equally effective and safe for sick patients who cannot take the actual medications due to their personal allergies.
Internationally, heroin is controlled under Schedules I and IV of the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs. It is illegal to manufacture, possess, or sell heroin in Belgium, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, the United States, Australia and the UK. However, under the name diamorphine, heroin is a legal prescription drug in the United Kingdom, and in the Netherlands, heroin is available for prescription as the generic drug diacetylmorfine to long-term Heroin addicts. Popular street names for heroin include black tar, smack, junk, skag, horse, "diesel", dope, chaw, chiva, dust and others.
This may be long delayed, but I just wanted to confirm that the Chiara Quartet is indeed an ensemble of brilliant rock stars, incredible teachers, and just the nicest people I know. Look for their recordings of Jefferson Friedman's string quartets - there's one where Greg plays with two bows at one time. It is extremely badass.
