Busker around 6pm Monday 2nd March at Charing Cross near Northern Line
« on: March 04, 2009, 09:27:54 PM »
Just to say, on the way to a business meeting in Birmingham I happened to walk past a busker playing a very attractive looking brown "Delicia" Melodeon on Monday evening around 6pm.  If I had had some money and had not been in such a rush I would have complimented the player. I heard a wonderful rendition of Bonny Green Garters in classic "D moderating to G". The player was very good and the tunnels of the london underground added to the resonance of the sound -quite delightful.

If you look in here, thank you very much and my compliments to you - you made me smile, laugh and polka!

Come on don't be shy! There can't be that many melodeon playing buskers in London.

He can't be that good or he would be able to afford a better melodion than a Delicia.

What's wrong with Delicias?

No worse than a Chinese Pokerwork!

Some would say better, but then I have a vested interest (see For Sale section).

We've had a thread about the Delicia-playing busker at Charing Cross before on this board, so my guess is that he's not a regular here. I always throw him a coin when I see him.
