Strength Based Bard: Feats, Prestiges, Et Cetera!

[zoobob9]

So I'm going for flavor on this one: a Strength based, Thri-Kreen bard, who duel wields greataxes that double as guitars. I'm starting at level 11. I know I need exotic weapon proficiency (The Axe), but I'm not sure how multiweapon fighting works with two handed weapons, so I may or may not get that.

Other feats I'll take I haven't decided. Also, I should probably get a prestige class that will work. I'm going divine bard so I can wear armor without ASF, and I'm wearing Medium armor (no skill penalty though so its ok), so Dervish, which was my first thought of a prestige class, is out of the question. Any recommendations?

Is bardic knack from PHB2 worth getting rid of bardic knowledge?

Any thoughts? Any experience with strength based bards?

Bardblade builds tend to be more focused on Str/Dex/Con than Cha. You only need 3 ranks in Perform to use Inspire Courage, and you only need a 12 Cha to get 1 bonus 1st level spell for Inspirational Boost, and you don't even REALLY need that.

I'd go Thri-Kreen2/Bard4/Warblade14 with the non-Psionic version of Thri-Kreen.
