Sounds fantastic. Really strong sound. Too bad no-one seems to be paying attention...

My busking experience mirrors yours. As per below.

That sounds cool Tony! I think we need to find a crowded pub with cheap beer, that would do it. It's fun anyway.

Apparently there isn't much attention (or tips) to be grabbed by well-equipped busking harmonica players who play extraordinarily well.

What's up with that???

They are in good company

People are busy and focused on what they are doing and sometimes miss exceptional things that may be going on around them.

G'day Ladies & Gents:

Wow i simply adore that fully blown overdrive + distortion, Hakan! Way cool. "To achieve one must heap up small things" - certainly love the way you push the envelope with that riff for a good duration too. Hey Champ what sort of amp are you using? Pignose? Marshall? Pedals?

Tony, i liked your fine chro work and appreciated the fine jig on the HA 118 four stopper mate.

For the rest, guessing what else can one say but except, "there is in crying a certain pleasure".

cheers
mark

Thanks a lot Mark! It's Fender Passport Mini, 7 watt battery solid state amp with 6 inch speaker, no pedal. I switched the original speaker since it didnt sound good when i pushed it a little. It has now a Jensen ceramic speaker

The general public´s relative indifference to Håkan´s performance could to some extent be due to the fact that he appears to be standing on the streets of Åmål, a minor town in the Swedish countryside, where there´s an annual blues festival -- going on right now. Then it is my impression that there a quite a few blues buskers around.
