Particularly on a weekend you will always find buskers and musicians in the High Street. They range from a tramp with a bongo drum, university students trying to raise a bit of extra cash to a whole steel band this weekend. They were really very good.
I used to see the steel drums very often in the Caribbeans. I didn't know that it was also popular in the UK.

Here in Leeds we have some very good buskers, though never seen a steel drum band doing it. Though I do know the girls in the Leeds library get driven to distraction by buskers that play a limited selection of songs!
ReplyDeleteThese are the top end of street music, they even had their own CDs!
ReplyDeleteIs the fire-eating juggler still there? I had to stand and watch him for hours with my son!
ReplyDeleteI love the sound of these drums.
