Abandon, Busking, Drag Queen, Heiid Kole, NYC NY, The Subway Diaries, dancing
Coming back form the trains tonight this is what I stumbled on – a drag queen dancing like no one was watching, in the middle of Times Square, so of course everyone was watching 🙂 (excuse the beginning…I barely had one hand free carrying guitar & groceries)
“And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.”― Friedrich Nietzsche
“Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must lead.” — Henry Chinaski

Busking Singing, Chile, Heidi Kole, The Subway Diaries, Times Square, Underground, Vayable.com
Hi guys – so I was approached by a reporter for the website http://www.vayable.com requesting an interview with me about busking the Underground of NYC.
You may be asking…What is Vayable? Well…
The term is a combination of vaya, which means “let’s go!” in Spanish and viable, which means “capable of living, growing and developing adequately.”
Our mission is to enable entrepreneurship, cultural exchange, community-building and exploration worldwide by empowering people to share experiences with others.
At the heart of Vayable is a community devoted to experiencing the world better. Vayable enables people to not only share their stories, but to invite others to participate in them. This is the future of travel. We believe that by taking a trip, you can change the world.

Bathabile welcoming the two world travelers 🙂
Danny & his two newest fans 🙂
I’m looking forward to showing you all the magic beneath the Big Apple!

Tonight Underground…
Guy sitting on bench on platform to me: “It’s crazy slow tonight”
Me: “I know, what’s up with that. It’s like all of Manhattan’s asleep”
Guy on Bench: “Yeah it’s the mood man”
Me: “So were you performing?”
Guy on Bench: “No”
Me: “Then how do you know it’s slow?”
Guy on Bench: “Oh, I was outside rockin’ a “Money For Weed” sign in Times Square”
Me: “Ahhhh…I see…”
Guy on Bench: “Hey could I play a song for a minute on your guitar? I had a guitar but someone smashed it…”
Me: “Ummm…yeah, sure. (guy plays insanely beautifully)
Guy: “Yeah I like to play any guitar I see ’cause someone smashed mine”
Me: “Um… well, here’s a crazy thought, have you ever considered taking some of the money you spend on weed & buying a new guitar?”
Guy: “Oh, yeah…I guess I could do that. (beat beat beat) Yeah, wow, that’s a cool idea. Yeah, I’m gonna do that.”

Here’s the latest update from a total stranger as of 10PM last night when I posted on CL for a laptop donation. Kevin responded & listen to what’s ensued!
Amazing – we have a new heartfelt member of the Sandy Relief Humanitarian club – just like that!:)

The thing about busking “No Pants Subway Ride” is, although super entertaining…well, there are no pants & no Pants – No pockets – No pockets – No cash 🙂
Photo – Caryn La Greca www.carynlagreca.com
So I took myself on an adventure uptown & to the East & somehow was pulled straight into St Matthews as I saw they had special music today. Anyway, putting all we know about the church aside – how beautiful this boys choir was. The sounds went straight into my bloodstream & really ‘got’ to me. I clicked on my cell phone & captured some of it here for you guys – enjoy 🙂
