it was morning rush hour in one of the busiest stations, where a lot of people wouldn’t be able to stop or they’d get poo poo for being late to work I kinda hate that particular tweet’s framing of his MILLION DOLLAR VIOLIN and THOUSAND DOLLAR TICKETS as a missed opportunity for REAL ART AND BEAUTY, like there aren’t incredibly talented buskers out there working (ok lots of poo poo ones, too); or other ways to hear that music; or that people passing by didn’t enjoy or value it too bad he didn’t do it this year woulda been a great opportunity for a YouTube crossover collab (also that photo isn’t the guy doing the performance)

seems like a lot of people got to appreciate a little bit while going to work, while ticket holders paid to take the time to listen later

Metro stations during rush hour are crowded enough without a crowd stopping to listen to some violinist. You can make that work in some of the larger NYC stations but not anywhere in DC.

Midjack posted:these are always presented as owns against people for not appreciating art out of context when it also demonstrates that public transport users in the us expect that showing interest in anyone else on the bus or train for more than 30 milliseconds results in being swarmed by people with their hands out. it's not even a us thing, people in the metro anywhere on earth generally have places to go and aren't going to stop for longer than it takes the train to arrive Kenny Logins posted:playing a $80,000 synthesizer rig at the gas station and loudly sighing as people ignore me for the 4th hour in a row "we held an impromptu concert with some of the best musicians in the world at a diner in buttzville south dakota (population 25, 1 hour drive to the next town or highway), and only two customers showed up. clearly humanity is doomed and has no taste" e: and that pretentious jerkoff's twitter is almost all "and then everybody clapped, because that man's name was albert einsten" corporate motivational speaker crap The_Franz fucked around with this message at 00:17 on Jan 1, 2024 |

I can definitely the difference between a bad player and a bad violin from a good one, and maybe a good one from a really good one but I do not believe that I could tell the difference between good and grand master in the context of public transport busking I'd watch that anime
