Interacting With Street Performers The behavior of the public is bizarre as seen through the eyes of a street performer (aka “busker”). For instance, today I was busking a street fair in Seattle, and these yuppie women leaned down and nicely placed their hot pink yoga studio ad upright in my guitar case, as if I am a billboard for them. I said, “Could you please take your advertising out of my case?” and they acted offended! So let’s just start right here with Rule #1. Do not throw your trash, or your personal advertisements, ...

The Lone Protester 
A powerful statement can be made by one lone protester. People often think they have to wait to *follow* someone else leading a protest, or for someone else to *join* them, before they can protest properly. But my street performer mentality says there is no time like now to launch a protest, anywhere. Street performers do not like to *wait* for someone to tell them where they can perform. And it would behoove the honest dissidenter to embrace similar sentiments....

Controversial Comedy 
One year I was doing a song called “Vasectomy,” and I decided to make it a circus on stage. The signer was signing crazy stuff, like “Vasectomy, just like a navel orange, I’ve been freed, it’s all juice, and there’s no seed! Vasectomy, what a vas deferens it would be!” And the sign for vasectomy was this sort of scissor snipping right at the groin, which was entertaining, as well. But then I brought Hacki Ginda (http://www.hackifun.com/) into the mix, to do some miming of the song too. Hacki ...
