Cello

A more commonly used named than Violoncello, a string instrument that is played sitting down. It is held in between the knees and supsended off of the ground by an end pin. It is made of mostly wood and has four strings, A,D,G, and C. Traditionally, the strings were made from cat or pig intestines, but now makers have moved onto steel and other synthetic materials. It is tuned an octave lower than the viola. It is said to be the instrument that most resembles the human voice, with its deep, rich tone. Famous cellist include Yo-Yo Ma, Rasputina featuring three cellist, and Apocalyptica featuring four.

cello rock

Cello rock is a genre of music characterized by the use of cellos and other stringed instruments such as violin and viola to create a sound, beat, and texture similar to that of familiar rock music, but distinctly reshaped by the unique timbres and more traditional genres of the cello (in particular) and other stringed instruments used. The cellos and other stringed instruments are often electronically amplified and/or electronically modified. They are often combined with other elements typical of rock music such as rock-style vocals and rock-style drumming.

Cee-lo

It's a Dice game that I play. You roll three dice until you get a number. A "number" is when you roll a dice and get two dice the same and one dice another number. Say you roll and get 2 2 3...three is your number. You roll until you get something. If you roll and get the same number as your opponent you double the bet. 1 2 3 automatically loses.... 4 5 6 automatically wins...a Trip # (111 222 333 444 555 666 beats any thing besides for a Trip of a higher number or 4 5 6)
