Nebojša Krstić (born 9 July 1957, in Belgrade) is a Serbian physician and musician (VIS Idoli). He is also a former public relations advisor to the office of the President of Serbia, appointed by Boris Tadić.
Krstić matriculated from the First Belgrade Gymnasium and then obtained a university degree at the University of Belgrade's Faculty of Medicine. In 1985 he appeared in the film, Šest dana juna. After finishing his studies, he worked in medicine for a decade, finding employment as a physician in several medical institutions including those on the island of Vis and Hyatt Regency hotel in Belgrade. After that, he began working in marketing, becoming director of the Nova, Young & Rubicam marketing agency.
In late 1979, Srđan Šaper and Krstić, both college students and non-musicians, decided to take up music and at a party made a deal with Vlada Divljan, Šaper's close high school friend, to form a band. Šaper would play the guitar, Krstić and Divljan drums. The band was called Dečaci. At about the same time the band met Dragan Papić who was a photographer and who became the band's creative mediator. He made photos of the band and published it in the youth newspaper magazine "Vidici". The photos had subtitles mainly dealing with gay parody concepts.
In February, 1980 the band started rehearsing at Divljan's building where Zdenko Kolar, Divljan's close friend since primary school also lived. Krstić even played Kolar's bass and used his amp. On one occasion Divljan called Kolar with whom he played since 1968 to come to join the band. Soon the band was joined by Boža Jovanović, Divljan and Kolar's friend who played drums. At the same time, due to lack of progress Krstić and Šaper quit playing and became the non-musician part of the band mainly concentrating on writing. During the whole Dečaci euphoria, the public's eye was focused also on graffiti which could be seen on Belgrade's walls. Krstić was the author of the first Belgrade graffiti "Margita je dečak" dedicated to his friend Margita Stefanović who later was the keyboard player of Ekatarina Velika.
