Monday Mural: lounge lizard

This character is part of a large mural in downtown Oakland.  Every time I look at this guy I hear the BeeGees singing Staying Alive.  If he's not a refugee from the 70s then he's a transplant from Vegas or Jersey.  Any way you look at it, he's not from these parts.  Sorry, I couldn't read the pieces to tell who painted this section of the mural. 

Welcome to Monday Mural:  if you like murals or have a mural you'd like to post, this meme's for you.  Just follow the Linky steps below.  You decide what constitutes a mural.  Once you start looking, you find them everywhere.  Please be sure to link back to this blog and visit your fellow posters.  Looking forward to the mural finds posted this week.

Sorry folks, try as I might I can't get the Linky to work.  Thanks, Bill for the heads up.  Hopefully, next week.
