I played violin in high school. We would have to play our music at concerts and we always had our books on a stand in front of us, whether or not we knew our part by heart. Many times, it is only used as a prop, so to speak.
The musisian looks like a cartoon in the second picture. His expression is so exaggerated, it’s funny. Maybe he wants to branch off into comedy, as well.

Just maybe the old poor guy has some spoiled child who rewrote his score.. And now he’s thinking “What the fuck? I play this song for 20 years and I don’t remember this part.. I’m getting old. Umm how did they do it in the Jisetsu Circle again?”

it seems as if Mr street musician is playing along with the score when suddenly he turns the page of the sheet music only to find a polaroid photograph of his girlfriend in bed with his best friend ! that bitch !

busking can be a lot of fun … but all my friends who do it improvise and make music up on the spot. they aren’t trying to be a radio, reproduce someone elses tunes … they’re adding their character to the street and the moment. they don’t need any song books or scores!!! same with jazz musicians

Wow….once more a nice pic…and an interesting
Well the truth is i have no idea that some jap instrument’s players have bad memory to remember every note… I can say here in Chile, the situation is not the same…Instrument’s players after a few performances remember every notes and can play songs without score…however, it’s amazing, in a country where people use their memory 100% to learn (as you explain in the “Hide educational things)” , the pic with the naked ass’s girl, i’ve read it too, LOL ), are not able to learn some songs or rythm…
i guess not every people are able to learn things usin memory, myself i’m very bad and poor tu use my memory, but because of my future work, i don’t need it =P
I suggest you you to tell that mister to buy new glasses to see…
Well…this is it…don’t stop to take pics…your site seems to me very interestin…
Keep doing this exelent job here…
nos vemos!

Professional musicians have to play much different music that is technically demanding. It is too much to memorize most of the time though good Jazz players memorize up to 1,000 and more tunes. How well they play them is another story though.
I try to memorize but sometimes I need fucking sheet music too.

In such case, you also need strong vision.
