street performer with skeleton puppet

dawballz · 2005-11-05 00:52:26

Didn;t know where to put this but it is a video of a street performer with a puppet, dancing to some song. Well worth the 3.28mb download http://rapidshare.de/files/5230156/skeleton_man.wmv.html

It's in the humour forum already.

Well worth a watch if you havent already seen it.
Wish we'd get more like this in Grafton St, instead of those feckers selling plastic leprechans dancing to crappy Irish music

As Fade2Black said on the humour board, I'm pretty sure its La Ramblas in Barcelona. I saw the same puppet along with a smaller skeleton dog being operated by two seriously hot girls just outside the hostel I was staying in.

They were making an absolute fortune as well! Quite a way better than the David Gray tributes we get on Grafton street. There is a piano guy though who is awesome.

A bit better than the Japanese weirdo with the really scratchy frog-like voice with his face painted white who sits there chanting and rubbing his sticks together.......

Scares the bollocks out of me

There was actually a guy on Grafton St. on Sunday who was doing something similar. The puppet was looking to see what change was being given and was looking in people's bags and things. He was good. I prefer the puppeteers to the classical musicians who take up so much space with their mini orchestras.
