optional buskers?

Anyone know if there is a pause button for Davis T buskers? Can I pay them to not play?


(yes, I love the arts, I love music but I don't love being a captive audience to someone with a cheesy amp, a boom box and a volume control that (apparently) goes to 11)

I miss the old guy who did the Tibetan chanting & moved speakers close to each other to create a distortion affect... he might have annoyed some people, but for some reason I found him absolutely fascinating. I only saw him in Davis a few times and then I never caught sight of him again. But that was years ago - does anyone know what happened to him?

I rather miss the older man who used to sing 'standards'. He at least knew the songs he was singing, and I rather enjoyed the fact that these were things my mom used to sing around the house when I was a child.

Most people hated him :) I mostly saw him at Park Street Station 6-8 years ago.

I remember that guy! I didn't really like his music, but it had a nice old-time community kind of nostalgic feel, and the guy was at least talented and very nice.
