I haven't played on the streets that much, as Scotland's weather doesn't really help street buskers. But I do remember on day when Dave & I were trying to busk on The Royal Mile in Edinburgh that every time we tried to sing a few songs the local Police asked us to move on, as the shopkeepers didn't want anyone busking near to their shop.You now need a council licence you have to apply for before you can busk & there is now designated busking areas but when we busked none of this applied! We moved to local folk sessions in pubs, as for us, it was a warmer environment in more ways than one.
We were playing at a live event with our Ceilidh Band ie Norloch Ceilidh Band at The Assembly Rooms,George Street,Edinburgh some years ago.Both Dave & myself play in this band for local function work. I was playing drums & we were half way through a set of tunes when all of a sudden my drum stool collapsed & I found myself lying flat on the floor! The band played on regardless which was just as well as there were many people on the dance floor.The event had attracted about 1,000 people, so it wasn't easy to hide! Thankfully this has never happened again, but it is something I will never forget.
Philip,
Blue Fox Knights
I started playing guitar on a 3/4 length cheap Spanish guitar which I got for about £20 Great British Pounds.It wasn't very easy to play as the action on the fret board & the pressure required to play the notes on the string wasn't easy. I then upgraded to a second hand electric guitar sg Gibson copy which was a lot easier to play & my Spanish guitar was passed down to one of my brothers, but I'm not sure what happened to that guitar?
