Music of Manhattan: Flatiron & Washington Square Park

in #video7 years ago (edited)

The footage in this video was taken on June 21st and 22nd walking through Lower Manhattan. During my "travels" (i.e. my walk from the gym to my apartment and my daily you've-been-working-nonstop-get-out-of-the-apartment stroll) I came across: Fogo Azul an All Women Brazilian Samba Marching Drumline, the Jazz band "Groove Merchant" and some random all french horn orchestra.

I feel like I should be highlighting how spectacular and magical this all is, but the truth is that after living in Manhattan for almost 10 years, I'm totally used to it. Sometimes I even long for a more quiet locale. Except for the living statue. That guy is always a pleasure. Then again, he doesn't make any noise. #grumpyoldman

You definitely run into some interesting things in Manhattan. I'm in Staten Island but work in the city. I was working at the Port Authority Bus Terminal at 178th & 179th & Broadway. Construction. Night shift 9pm-5am. There was a guy waiting for a bus on the bench passed out with his entire junk hanging out his pants! 😂

This post checks out. Ah, I both hate and miss that place.

HAHA classic NYC

Lmao I took a pic on my phone but my wife made me delete it! 😢 It was a classic. I have so many dumb but hilarious NYC stories of random shit you see walking around.

You should post about them!

I probably will. Just have to figure out how to make it into an entertaining post. Have some sad and scary stories as well.

Let me associate a picture with the music:
