Musical Scenes of Paris

Paris is a wonderful city for walking around. Beautiful monuments give way to distinct neighborhoods. Go one block off the usual tourist attractions, take your time, and you can feel like the city is your own too.

If you keep your eye out, artists are everywhere. Here are three guitar sightings within 500 yards of each other in the historic 4th and 5th Arrondis-sements behind Notre Dame Cathedral.

  1. I know exactly where that is. Probably saw those guys in the first photo in person last year.

  2. Hi Tom. Thanks for stopping by. Yes, this area around the heart of Paris is a wonderful pedestrian area with gorgeous historic views in every direction. Kinda like most of this city! I love that the arts are front and center in much of what goes on there.

  4. Tom, really enjoy your Pro Guitar Secrets (link under Cool Guitar Blogs on the right) giving us a glimpse into the ins and outs of life as a recording guitarist. Nothing else like it out there. Cheers!
