Apparently, the shebab - the Sultanate's rising crop of teen boys - live in some kind of pop-culture time warp, at least as evidenced by this graffito Koko and I found on a pavement yesterday in one of our wanders around the neighborhood. It's not a place we go regularly, but often enough that I'm fairly convinced it's new-ish, at least.
This is a tag that would have seemed fairly naff back when I was of the age to be doing this sort of thing, rising thirty years ago. Here, it approaches the surreal. Which is, I suppose, all too often what one can expect from the intersection of East and West...
imagine how floyd must feel.
ReplyDeleteAt least it's pink.

ReplyDeletehmm, intersection of east and west....
......sounds like rice-a-roni to me.
At least it's fairly well done. Props to the designer.
ReplyDeleteI can report that going by the grafitti in my old Neighbourhood, Bob Marley was a big deal amongst the Shebab. Also Metallica. Bizarre.
ReplyDeletegood old Pink Floyd along with the Pink Panther have been favs with the shebab for - omg so many years; wonder what it is about Pink
