A key scene from Ghostbusters was reenacted at the 42nd Street NYC Public Library by Improv Everywhere. Watch as unsuspecting patrons (or were they in on it?) are haunted by a first grader’s version of a ghost and then the Ghostbuster Geek Squad and Glee club dances to the rescue.

If I was there, I’d be done at the 2:00 mark. But I’d definitely take pics and talk about it with friends all week. With all the camera setups this was obviously approved by the library. Why not? It would make a good PSA on the excitement of the library. You can also spot a few ringers in the crowd, like the comb-over guy, but that’s okay for improv/street art.

In some situations it’s acceptable to display ankle with “high waters.” Like if you win Lindsay Lohan in a Baccarat bet on a boat in Cannes.

That’s okay, doubly so if you’re French. But not this.

Guys you are not chicks. You shouldn’t buy Capri pants, so why are you turning your skinny jeans into them? You can’t all be bike messengers either.

Here’s Stevie in 2009 (don’t worry he looks the same in 2010):

And micro-fro Stevie from Soul Train 1975. Who looks more current and hip?

Here’s poor Robert Smith (who at least still sounds great)

And in the mid-80s with a less mopey mop of hair

Not only would his cut fit in today’s world but so would the skinny jeans and high tops

Someone get them an image consultant stat! It’s time to let the long crazy locks go.

I thought artists liked to reinvent themselves and change styles. Robert and Stevie certainly did when they were young. But at some point in the 80s they just stopped trying. Maybe they picked uniforms to remind us of their glory days and to cement their caricatures.

Way better than the faux-hippies or bandanna girls that haunt the festival circuit. Katy went with an elegant slave girl look, like something from the days of Rome.

Or maybe to match the Indio sun she’s better described as “desert-chic.” Like Tina Turner in Thunderdome.

Looking through photos of him gave me an idea to make a photo slideshow with music, something I’ve been wanting to learn. Obviously I’m still learning!

It turned out pretty dumb and cheesy but that was my plan going in.
