This is a real story. Joshua Bell playing incognito in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment about perception, taste and priorities of people. The outlines were: in a commonplace environment at an inappropriate hour, Do we perceive beauty?Do we stop to appreciate it? Do we recognize the talent in an unexpected context?

I think people tend to see the beauty after the fact. When they think they should or as long as they are getting recogntion for it. We might if we are not in a hurry to do something like the people we're when they we're catching the train. I have on many occasions when i went to califronia we we're in the train station for over 3 hours we listened to this really cool guy who was playing the guitar and he was playing the saxaphone(i think thats wat they call it.)
