Who’s the best Subway musician? Guess we’ll find out tomorrow at 8pm when the finalists perform again.
Kind of funny that this show might launch someone’s career out of the subway. Like they would ever go back to playing on the platform after this…haha.
Watch it on MSG.
The New York Times has really stepped up its online video mojo. I haven’t looked at any of their vids in a long time, but today one caught my eye called “Subway Idol.”
It is a very well produced story or mini documentary about a musician auditioning for Music Under New York, a program that funds and supports subway musicians. Personally, I think it would have been in the MTA’s best interest to give SUBWAYblogger a shout about the auditions for a little publicity, but that’s just me.
The program itself has been around for a few years now and has grown to receive over 50 auditions, held in Grand Central Terminal.
Watch the video here. Very interesting if you are a subway music fan.
