This Is My HABITAT Here
A perfect place to get to know the life and times of a busker for freedom, which I've been for more than 34 years. You'll find pictures of me in various places, at various times, with various friends and other buskers. I'll be adding pictures of my basket collection (The word busker derives from the Spanish word buscar, to seek - as in fame or fortune - and wasn't used in English until the 1860's - busking has even come to mean the act of totally "winging it" - making a song up on the "fly" - off the top, out of thin air...)
Street performers of various sorts use baskets and other things like hats...some swear by top hats, and spiffy Master Of Ceremony type attire place in front of them as a courtesy - and to declare the spot as a 'sovereign' domain while they occupy it...we'll be looking at the basket house/open mike (microphone) tradition in America...
