Description This guy on the bus caught my eye. He reminded me of Bob Dylan (happy b-day!!!)...and I loved the contrast between him and the old guy next to him who seemed to be thinking "damn those kids and their rock n roll music!!! cut your hair hippie!!!"

Anyhoo...I really like this photo even if it is a little shaky from the bus.

There's a kid on my bus to school who dresses just like he's in an 80's rock band (leather jacket, aviators, boom box, etc.) and he just acts so chill and carefree about it, despite the fact that others around him are annoyed by it. So this guy here reminds me of him and of what rock n roll really is--being yourself and being free-spirited, no matter what other people think. All in all, great photo, that guy looks really cool~

Beautiful ... I could be the guy in the picture.
Lately I'm living a very rock&roll life, and you have no idea how the generations of the past (here in Italy) are not very "tolerant"
When I travel by bus, people look at me as if I am a wanderer...well...maybe they're right...XD

Long life to Rock & Roll \m/

I am just... utterly astounded that you were lucky enough to bump into my prospective husband.

I would have fainted dead away if it had been me who saw this guy.
Then I would have asked him (ableit having heart palpitations) "I'm sorry... But... Can you sing me Tangled Up In Blue?"

Amazing.

Now, I really require some good ol' Dylan-therapy.

haha yeah he was cute... normally im pretty comfortable approaching people and asking to take their picture but i was a little intimidated by him to be honest... plus i was on a bus and if he had said NO .. that wouldve been a very long and awkward bus ride hahaha...

but yeah ...im glad you like.... thanks!

I love it! & I love your thoughts on it.. the old man vs the musician.
An adjective I come up for this, for some reason which I could explain I supposed if I really cared to, is "cute." Quite adorable :]

Loving the contrast too, really great! It's very 70s and I love the way his hair and sunglasses just stick out.
