If they're good, it's a welcome break from the bustle of the CityCentre shops for a while.
We do tend to get some oddities as well, not just a bloke / woman with an acoustic guitar - I was watching a mini orchestra last week - they drew a MASSIVE crowd - and people were putting coins in the cello case :) .

There's also the dude in a wheelchair with a whole bunch of synths... brilliant!

Never seen anybody selling CD's yet though... that's not to say they haven't been, just not the ones I've seen. :wink:

theres that annoying blind guy who does hankmarvin at the top of market street,he sells cds but hes shit


last week there was 3 asian kids about 10-13 down by boots crankin out some f**king great guitar classics
wild ting,few trex bits and well you know stuff every body knows
and man considering the age of em the lad on vocs WOW!!!

Strings are still attached. The f**ker hauled his blaster 'n' puppet down to Weymouth (Dorset)! Well c'mon, how many senile guys with blasters and puppets are there??? :-o Gotta be the same one, surely. :?
:-o

Enjoy :hihi:
Music with dinner is an insult both to the cook and the violinist.
