[@filmcat_youtube]

Thanks for checking it out! What are your favorite pieces? Any still around?

[@SealoveSea3]

I too live in Minneapolis.
I did a whole video on peace of mind - I've heard that's what the "of mind" character's name is! Seeing it always makes me smile and if I can, I try to get up close to it. Thanks for putting this together - great work!!

Peace of mind* not of mind. Black Daze does more legal stuff now. He's got some pieces rolling on trains. You really got to look to find his illegal pieces around the city.

Sick. Minneapolis represent. I love the graffiti and i wish the city/business would leave most of it up. Lets get some more art and color in this city!!

[@willriordan2154]

The ones I see around a lot are Ensue, Poolboy, and D65. Update: The biggest I see are probably Popeye and Broham now.

[@filmcat_youtube]

I think I’ll have to do a follow up! I agree I have been seeing a lot of Poolboy and other new tags/bombs around town

[@davezenz]

Back in the 70's and 80's street gangs used graffiti to mark their domains. Is this still done?

[@filmcat_youtube]

I know very little about gangs but I think that for the most part that has died down due to enhancements in charging crimes if they can be deemed a crime committed for benefit of a gang, gangs likely don’t want to advertise or bring unwanted attention to areas, and rival gangs likely know the other gangs territory.
