Jeez.
Facts on the situation are certainly unclear, and I'd question any unfounded assumptions of mental health issues or serious drug problems. She's holding a phone and dancing. If she were a professional street performer, we'd evaluate her talent instead of judging her lifestyle. Enjoy it. She's not bad, and the dubbed audio makes it delightful.

Posting my previous comment from the killed video because I still want this to be a thing lol:

All street performers should put up a sign with their Paypal account info. That way, if it gets traction on the internet someone like me (who really appreciates it) can donate a few bucks even though they weren't present for it live.

I just thought I´d drop by and mention the above was written a couple of days before the whole Cologne New Years Eve clusterf**k. Now women in Cologne (and some other places in Europe) are asked by authorities to keep an arms length away from men and dress and behave reasonably. These instructions have in turn led to several street performances by naked "artists" so we might yet win the cultural war.

Damn, he's good. This is no ordinary street performer!

Some of the best music I've ever heard came form the street performers in SF-Two in particular stand out: One guy on Haight St. played acoustic guitar and all of his arrangements he had learned by ear by spinning 78rpm rarities in his personal collection. His technique was reminiscent of each of the artists (all from the 20s-30s) he appreciated. Carl Kress, Dick McDonough, and Django Reinhardt . Guy was genius.

Another lady in her late 50s would camp out in front of the Castro theater and play musical saws. She was a hit with the gay boys and gals in the Castro, always had a fat saw-case fulla semolians.

One cat, in a wheelchair, played this modified electric slide guitar he had made himself, with the amp and battery supply all included in his wheelchair. His groove sounded like an amalgam of many great rock guitarists from the 60s, Hendrix, Beck, Page....that guys groove was SICK! Always tossed him those dillies on his watch.

@pumpkinandstorm you always find the most interesting videos.

It's such a weird look into their culture when looking from the outside. Everyone with a camera it seems, the mens wearing funny looking hats and short shorts, tight ones too, the absolute nonchalance about people street performing and the fun people have in watching. I imagine of course they've cut out all the photo bombs we come to expect from something out of the US, but it's still pretty interesting to watch.

Not to mention, holy hell that's a lot of practice to get it that perfect. Their timing, to my untrained eye, seemed perfect and totally mesmerizing.

But is this a viral commercial for the olympics? Trying to one up Marry Poppin's and the attack of Lincoln look-alikes?

Some of these aren't even guitar solos as much as they are opening vamps or memorable riffs...These guys are cool and it looks like a lotta fun and all to put pop culture into the Blendtech TB-621-20....Street performing, internet resume and income-brilliant.
