	Sax on the Streets (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Between their regular street- corner performances, they serenaded a French couple in a Parisian penthouse apartment, paid homage to the inventor of the saxophone at his doorstep in Belgium, appeared in a Danish newspaper, squabbled with Czech border guards, and got thrown in jail cell in Switzerland.
		In "Sax On The Streets" we are given the rare opportunity to experience the transient life of a busker through a pen that is both honest and insatiable for new observations.
		But in chatting with other street musicians about the ins and outs of the trade, I found that we all faced similar issues, shared similar experiences, and generally went through a similar process whatever the act was, be it bagpipes, bongos, banjos, accordions, violins, or even spoons.

	Johnny Clegg (musician) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Johnny Clegg (born June 7, 1953 Lancashire (near Manchester) UK) is a popular musician from South Africa, who has recorded and performed with his bands Juluka and Savuka.
		He formed the first inter-racial South African band, Juluka, with gardener and Zulu street musician Sipho Mchunu.
		Because it was illegal for inter-racial bands to perform in South Africa during apartheid, their first album Universal Man received no air play, but it became a word-of-mouth hit.

		For people who want to make a living of live and spontaneous music on the streets, the Busker Ringtones project, by Tamsin Fulton, offers street musicians a new revenue stream but gives also the public the possibility to get unique ringtones for their mobile phones.

	Street Musician Louis "Moondog" Hardin Dead at 83
		Lacking the financial means to hire an assistant to help write music, Hardin took to the streets of New York to perform for anything the passers by would give him.

		Moondog was regularly seen at his post on 6th Avenue and 54th Street throughout the '60s, selling his music and poetry to anyone who would buy it.

		New Orleans has worn down some of the greatest musicians in the world, and didn't just hand over the territory to the tourist-pleasing May. He's had to fight every week, every year, for his few feet of concrete.
		In one sense, being a street performer rather than a union musician in the clubs has freed me from politics and ass-kissing that has nothing to do with good playing.

		While in Boston last summer the most moving street musician I saw was a blind young man about my age playing the banjo.
		Although he was an adept musician who entertained the passers-by, the sweat from the city heat caused his fingers to slip on the strings making it too difficult for him to play.
		He leaned back against Woolworth’s front window, banjo across his lap, and wiped his hands on a large white handkerchief as he sang ballads; soft and low intervals of melancholy on a bright Boston day.

		Busking is the art of street performance, an artistic tradition rich with a history that is centuries old.
