I just had the most devastating thought:
What if Piano Man is the Continuation of Vienna. And all those people in the bar believed the guy who told them to to hurry, that Vienna would wait, that they‘d have time for their dreams.
But he lied. And they all lost their dreams and ended up drifting in that bar, mourning the lives they lost because they believed the man who told them to slow down and that they don‘t have to chase their dreams right now.

I liked how the artist/artists left their bikes and materials here, apparently not concerned about theft or vandalism.👌
