    • When I went to new york the subways always had that spirit....the cold steel estructures, the people, and ofcourse the b-boys...
      one time I photograff a "b-boy dancing family", there was even boys of 5 years old dancing...quite sorpresing.
      keep it up.

    • Excellent video! Long live the New York Subway. A wonderful film concerning New York City is the 'Gods of Time Square.' Thanks for sharing...!

    • I love subway performers because they offer forms of entertainment you wouldn't find anywhere else. GL

    • I would have liked to be entertained by those guys in the subway. It would definitely be fun and make the ride go faster. They are pretty good at what they do, especially when you consider the amount of space they had to perform. The ending with the manager introducing himself was great. Pretty nice of you to get the word out for them. Great job, and thanks for bringing this here. GL from me.

    • I love the subway and the artists that it produces. The brass bands, the singers are all great talent.
      I think you covered it well. I know how difficult it is to get a pro camera into the subway without being harassed by the NYPD. Those guys are amazing and I think their performance should be on TV.
      When you have a chance I recently uploaded a profile based on Susan Cagle, who plays in the Subway, but she is currently signed to Columbia Records and is working on a studio album.
      Check it out here and let me know what you think.

    • I've seen this crew before (I think they frequent the F-train), but it looked like you used a 1 chip camera to cover the action. I saw a lot of pixelation here. Also, to get THE BEST angles on subway car dancers, standing by the doors so the pole didn't interfere would have been better than having the long single shot of the crew with the pole cutting off your view. The audio for the voiceover needed to be brought up & clearer too. It was pretty good for the two minutes, but I know PLENTY of crews that dance on the trains & getting the best action with a 3CCD camera would have been better. Good luck though, dude...

    • Love this piece! I agree with the others that you could probably do without the intro where you talk directly into camera. Would love to see even more subway acts. Maybe you could do a series of pods. There's a mariachi band that rides the 1 train uptown that I think is great. Anyway, great little underground pod. Made me feel like I was part of a very exclusive show. GL!

    • Cool video. I love those guys. My favorite part is 'I'm the manager! Reggie Reg! And your comments afterwards. I just like how he was off camera and then just comes in from the left part of the screen.

    • Good piece. I would cut out the beginning bit where you have the camera on you and apologize for your voice. not needed your voice sounds fine past there. I also wouldn't mind a bit more than just a preformance, talk to them a bit and some others around you, do people ride that subway just to see them? I think its good now but you could add to it.

      GL

      If you get a chance give me some insight on ours "Xtreme Waste"

      Cheers
