Are you? I can't believe it goes on for an hour! I am tempted to go to the next one! Although I don't think I am that crazy enough 8O

Just another example of how people simply have far too much leisure time on their hands :!:

It's another example of flash-mobs, I don't know how to define them in english, but IMo it's ephemeral culture (not art), pacific and playfull, aimed just to cause disconcert.
I went to one about three years ago, at the very end of las Ramblas, and it was quite massive and really funny.

The flashmob phenomenon has been around for a while... starting in New York, from what I've read, and going as far as cities in Central Asia. Little of Europe was spared the ignominy. The fashion has mercifully subsided...

...but you're right, it does sound like this idea derived from flashmob roots.

This is considered flash mob, like pillow fights and the street fights, where you get a water gun and an objective.
I like them lots, it's a great way to make big cities places less cold and more playfull, if does it make any sense.
A shame we don't get too many in BCN :(


BTW, today CSKA - Barça!

Oh, I know! I found out on Monday and forgot to mention it to you.

I'll be watching football, so I'll miss it. I'd even thought about going to the game at one point but I don't have time tonight...

Want to bet on who wins? ;)

I don't know how is CSKA doing it, we have won all Euroleague games with great performances, but we are very bad on the regular league. I hope we win ;)

I think CSKA has been doing ok at home and in Europe. They're in 2nd place in the group behind Barca.... so whoever wins tonight would be top of the group :twisted:
 
i was at the last one at Liverpool Street a month or two back.( actually i was working there then but took the opportunity to join in a little)\

If only i knew how to transfer pics from my portable telephone i would show you all some lovely pictures
