There should be more street musicians! They brighten up the street with music and are mostly underpaid !
Rock on buskers!!!!!!!!!

She must be great! any more info?..Oh the "wit" behind insulting BC transit's best....Seen? most "street musicians" can actually play more than one style, write their own material, and they probably get paid more than your average "new york dolls rip off", or "universal's pet meat socks of the week".I know a cellist who is renowned in "elite" circles who honed their skills on a streetcorner....The truth is, most "serious musicians" do it because it's "fun", and it's a great little "hobby" that they (fortunately) dump after they suddenly get overdrunk on maturity.(usually at the urgings of the damn monkey they got in a band to meet in the first place).Luckily for us, they just show up at the railway or backstage lounge with the nagging spouse and bless us with that "OH! I used to be in Erin oRn LoHengriNN'EyE EnYA ERIE bilbo baggin frodo celt-bag, and the drunk fathers of landfill" HELL, for only but a brief moment...At least you don't have to hold down the bile watching people act horny in the presence of a street gigger, and you can easily say to them in no words "thanks for the inspiration" without having to stroke their sensitive little simian ego.
