Jammin' in the subway!

So far I have really loved the subway because it is cheap, easy and quick. Normally we have been taking the E train and the 6 but as of yesterday those two trains have not been running everywhere we have needed to go. This gave us major problems last night when Bailey, Angelina, Sarah and I decided to go to Chinatown. The subway stations are already pretty chaotic but I felt that it was even more chaotic when we were not exactly sure what train to get on. Once we finally figured out where we needed to be we ran through the subway station to get to our platform. As we were running through the crowds of people we heard music playing and saw a crowd of people gathering around these two men. The two men were dressed in solid black with white masks over their faces. They were hip-hop dancing to Usher's "OMG"! They were amazing! We found ourselves not so worried about finding our platform anymore. When they finished dancing we continued on to our platform where we found another man playing music on metal garbage cans and buckets. He was extremely talented, as were the other two guy that we saw dancing earlier. This is one reason I love the culture in New York and one way that it is so different from the culture at home. There would never be people dancing or making music just on the side of the street. These are also some ways that I have been able to see different forms of art outside of the museums. From the two men dancing and the man playing awesome beats on a garbage can to the beautiful mosaics along the walls, art is everywhere in the subway stations!
