The Entertainer punched metal disks that play classics, old tec but effective and pleasant, found in North Carolina.
Playing on a street in a prosperous Los Angeles suburb which used to be a tourist attraction. Now lined with locked down doors and for lease and for sale signs. He played very well but had few listeners. youtu.be/g8syRhvSZdk
On a visit to Winchester we saw this street artist drawing a crowd ever tighter around him. We stopped to watch.
I imagined he was a fire eater but his lead-up, to whatever act, was tantalizing to say the least and I felt the air of menace. 👿
The apparent obliviousness of some passers-by amused me.
In the end we just moved off but by then I had too many images captured on burst.....🔥🔥🔥

A street entertainer defies gravity and belief as he limbos under a pole that he had placed across the top of two bottles of wine, in Covent Garden, London.
Not my usual type of photo, but it was amazing to see.
One from my 2018 archives
These two gentlemen greeted our tour group as we checked into one of the delightful hotels that India has to offer. We sipped tea and enjoyed a few moments of music and dance. It was a wonderful afternoon, indeed.

Zachary Luka busking in Manly NSW.
It was an odd combination, Zachary Luka was busking, across S Steyne there is a tent promoting the 2019 VISSLA Sydney Surf Pro while a short distance away was the 2019 Manly Kombi Rally.
This is Manly.

The entertainer. My restoration and colorization of photographer Robert Mushet´s original 1921 image in the Library of Congress archive. The lady was an entertainer at the Butler Cafe Revue, Seattle.
"Located in Seattle's Hotel Butler, the Butler Cafe was much more than a small cafe, with a seating capacity of 500. A 1922 advertisement enthused, "With its big musical review, with clever performers, beautifully costumed, and with Tiny Burnett's wonderful dance orchestra, The Butler's dinner and supper dansants are the social events of the city."

Nope. I couldn't live in a city. Do cities attract weird people or make them appear weird to 'normal' people visiting from the countryside? Or is it me that is weird? Either way I prefer somewhere quieter and less complicated. I like natural beauty and tranquillity.
Life in the city may seem one mad rush but actually this man is stood utterly and totally, frozen still. He's one of those people who stands statue still until you give him some money. I have to say he was marvellously convincing. It can't be easy to hold this position totally still for hours on end.

This is for anyone who works service type jobs..I was really inspired to do this because I feel like, as artists, we are a modern day jester sometimes.....
p.s. I learned to juggle JUST for this shot :D
Since living in Las Vegas over the last 15 years, I’ve crossed paths with many of the classic entertainers 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s that call Las Vegas home. I remember watching Mr. Barbutti on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson several times. Always great to see him! He’s still a funny and very approachable person.
