Thread Name: Amplified buskers strike again
Subject: RE: Amplified buskers strike again
Well I dropped off the letters today.
Caught the manger of the "usual" busker spot (K-Mart) on his way out and told hime what I was there for and he stated quite brusquely and in a language which gave NO room for misinterpretation that "Sorry ALL busking outside K-Mart is finished".
However, I gave him the letter and explained that I knew of the ban and that the letter was to request a reconsideration as the "genuine" buskers were being punished because of ignorant 'blow-ins'.
He actually looked quite surprised at my points (I think he though all buskers were just "derelicts" preying on people in any way possible - don't think he realised most of us are pretty genuine.
He accepted the letter quite graciously and offered to reconsider the situation.
