I fucking told you! Stay above the line bitches!

Starting this Sunday and for 13 weeks after that, Craig Shephard whose day job surprisingly is at a hedge fund in mid-town Manhattan (I guess “look-at-me-ism” has no boundaries) will be walking to various locations – most of which are in the magical land of Brooklyn - and composing and performing songs for us culture-less people to hear.

Here is his map. His first stop this Sunday will be on the corner of 85th and 18th in Bensonhurst. I can’t wait for the Italians, Chinese, Mexicans, Polish, Russians and Arabs to just walk by and ignore this attention-starved freak.

 

Here is my map. I told these fucks to stay above the line. There may be consequences:

 

Oh, and here’s another classic map of Brooklyn:

Anyway, I got this story from a gentrification cheerleading website called The Greenpointers. It say’s he did this in Switzerland in 2008 and performed a song with a pocket trumpet. He say’s his music can be described as “standing outside listening to snow falling” which to me isn’t music and neither is his actual music. Here take a listen to this musical genius – click on the first audio clip:

I pray that some Josh or Megan follows this ‘look at me’ yup and video tapes him – especially when he goes to Bed-Stuy, East New York and Canarsie. That should be interesting. How stupid and desperate for attention can you be to go to East New York and blow into your little pocket trumpet on the corner. Don’t say diehipster didn’t warn ya old Craigy boy.
