Its truly impressive. The other subway in Paris though, the one with numbers, smelled of pee and was trashy and littered and populated with nasty people. Yuk. I didn't catch any buskers however...although it would be a perfect place. And I dig the red line best........

Also, Terri Hendrix (a wonderful singer/songwriter from Texas) does a very funny song on her live album, "Le Mazet," about busking in Paris, including the hanging out afterward you mention. Here are the lyrics from her website: Le Mazet written by ike eichenberg (bmi) ike is one of my favorite songwriters. he wrote this song about his visit to europe there is a bar in paris where the busquers used to play they'd stop by for some guiness when they were through in the subway and there was gypsy music and you could see them dance just to be alive in paris france there was a girl from chile I think she was a man I don't speak her language I think I understand she said she was an artist I said I was one too she told me she like purple I told her I like blue (chorus) and I can't forget le mazet when serge and monique they would play and with their hats in their hands they would say quelque chose pour la musique s'il vous plait I dreamed I saw marlena she was standing at the bar she smoked her cigarette we strummed on our guitars she broke into a song she sang long ago this man comes up and says go home, go back to lubbock well I visit paris often in my mind I see marlena when I can find the time we while away the hours as the gypsies play we laugh about the nights at cafe le mazet >From: "Ata Rivers" > >Paris may be Europe's top busking city.
