These rundown doors have a serious case of the melancholy blues. Tagged with graffiti and covered with flyers, I doubt anyone lives or works there anymore. But, despite the grim appearance, life still goes on around this forgotten place which has now become the stage for a street musician in Athens.

Which part of Athens is this, Donna? Hope these musicians have another place to live?
Hi Jesh, This is in the Plaka/Monastiraki area of Athens where there are plenty of tourists walking about. While I don’t know this man’s circumstances, he likely has another place to live and plays his guitar for extra income.
There is often beauty in decay
I couldn’t agree more.
😊😊
I can’t even muster enough gumption to play my banjo on my back porch, much less on a street. lol Love the blue doors!
Thanks! Greece is filled with blue doors but each one has its own special character. I also wouldn’t be able to muster the gumption to play music on the street. Thankfully, there are talented folks that feel comfortable sharing their music with us.
Yes thank goodness !!😅
Oh my gosh, that’s a beautiful shot! Love it, well done! 😀
Thanks so much, Joey.
The show must go on
Indeed.
