I'm seriously considering dressing as a leprechaun and sitting at Circular Quay playing whistle and bodhran for the tourists...... there is a guy down there who dresses in full Scottish Highland dress who "plays" bagpipes really badly (how can you tell???*grin*)... and he rakes in the money because he looks the part.. and he's something you don't expect to find in Oz.......here is an older thread where people tell of their experiences both nice and nasty while busking....
