<Anakin>NOOOOOOOO000000000ooooooooo.......</Anakin> :(

I feel sorry for the guy, I really doubt it was foul play - concert halls are crowded packed places and it probably was witnessed, the luthiers and insurance company would also be on the look out for that anyway with such an expensive item (it's not impossible to spot the difference between a violin crushed in it's case and one smashed up and then put into a case), but the guy really does need to get a proper case for his instrument.

I think it's worth being a little lenient on the guy, after all being a model doesn't automatically make you a drama queen, a jerk or emotionally unstable, just like being a musician doesn't automatically do the same. There are plenty of people under the age of 90 who are capable of being quite responsible, even when under the spotlight.
