Yeah.  I think you don't need it.  Cause what you're really doing is
tricking me into thinking it's a string/ambient track then hitting me with
the rock.  So overall, the strings don't have to be so "real" to make it
work.  

If you were going to do that, I would suggest recording your quiet studio
with an open mic - no noises, and let it fade in with the strings and run as
long as they are in.  Mix it really quiet, because that high freq of the
open mic will really cut through.

Make a change, make a change, make a change......(listening again...)

Also, maybe consider some more drastic panning with the guitars and even
bass in some sections.  Like HARD left or right guitars swapping out, and
your super-compressed drums in the middle.

I hope you get this one!!!!!

CM,

Damn, you got good ears! That's exactly what it is,
the gated vocal track is opening and closing for the
first 10 seconds. But, I left it in on purpose just to
dirty the strings up with a little ambient noise. Too
much?

I did it last night and today. Thanks for the
compliment!
