What an extremely fascinating article. thanks, px!

i would like to say that i'm different and can see beauty whenever its in front of me but i'm really not sure how i would have faired in this experiment...

i have given quite a bit to street musicians in the past though.

I think sharing this article online probably extends the experiment a bit further too huh? ;)

Good job JT! Good job!

It was a beautiful article! I was mesmerized by it. I just haven't watched the videos yet.

edit: I would have seen myself as someone who would have lingered for as long as I could. And maybe even trying to find out who the guy was after the fact.

That article was way too fucking long. They could have cut out 80% of it.

But as a Psychology major, I love this shit. I knew the "answer" before I finished the first paragraph.

No it's not. Early morning rush hour isn't a good time for anyone.

I loved the entire article because it also offered tidbits of other things I could go google. LOL

Yes, I read it all too. Into The Wild. I was already thinking about downloading some violin music, so I'll start with something mentioned. Cool :). Am I the only one who always imagines it's a known artist in disguise? Especially in big cities when I'm on my way to a concert...

groetjes,
Mirella :)

Crap. L'Enfant plaza is so busy you probably couldn't even hear the guy over all the other 'performers' and loud cell phone conversation pricks.

Street performers are something to behold if they're good. I sometimes wish I lived in a big city (like NYC) where there's a lot of stuff to see.
I'm lucky if an AC/DC tribute band comes to perform at the small theater downtown. :shake:

AC/DC sucks on their own. I can't imagine what shittier musicians sound like playing their songs.

I do love some AC/DC. :bammer:
But not really interested in a tribute band. I want the real deal.

That's about as lame as U2.
