That was fun to watch. My back hurts in sympathy. ;>)
Did he have the speaker right behind and facing his head?
He's earning his money.

Apples and oranges. Sheesh.
Amazing! The word "Cash" is the same in Croatian as it is in English.

Where's his lighting rig? Does he use Showplay?

it's sad, but my main reaction to that is - if you tried that in my
town, in pretty short order you'd be explaining yourself to the local
police because some soulless person dialed 911 ( emergency ) and
complained.
Either you'd need a special permit, or there's some noise ordinance, or
a law against pan handling .. or something. But then I do live in a
really suck place, northeastern Ohio.
aye ...yi ... yi yi .....hoot hoot hoot ..... something something :-)

Here you'd do it in an indoor mall under special permit I suppose.
Here in Oz you would need a busker's permit, and there is a guy who does
something very similar to the one in the vid in Brisbane for the Sunday
market near the old Customs House. I recall that years ago Scott Joplin's
music had a great burst of popularity following the release of "The Sting".
The world's leading exponent lived in Perth (Oz) and used to busk in that
city. The local ordinances required that he had to change locations
periodically, maybe once an hour, and he used to get a bunch of kids to push
his piano from one spot to another. I can't guess what it did to the piano
tuning, and how often he had to get it retuned.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Croatian dude had to get a permit as
well. Plus, in his town you have to worry about snipers, too.
Andrew Schulman, take notice!!!
Yea, I here if you shoot a burglar while he's trying to break into
your trailer, you get in trouble instead of him.
Here, if the burglar trips over your garden hose when he's staggering
out with all your stuff, he can sue you.

Here in Florida we have what they call the "Shoot first Law". ;-)
Better than all the current mainstream corporate bands put together!

If only homeless people could see this and take note. I never give
people money on the street, but I'd willingly drop a $20 for this guy.
Too bad the homeless can't afford the intrawebz, LOL.
I always give money to buskers, sometimes even when they don't really
deserve it. After all they have the courage to get out and do it.

Here's my suggestion to you guitarists who want to make some money.
Learn two or three tunes on the tin whistle and teach your dog to
dance for about 30 seconds on command. Park yourself where there is a
lot of walk by tourists and do the act. If you insist on playing
guitar - and I've seen this one work - play the guitar and train your
dog to take bills from listeners and put them in your money box. The
rubes will keep giving the dog money just to see him put it in the
box. Oh, and get a small dog so no one is afraid of it. At a good
tourist spot you should make $100+ in an afternoon. Don't forget to
feed and water your dog.
Yeah, sounds fair. Someone is trying to steal your MP3 player, so you
kill him. He deserves it, the scum. Who needs a court system?
Funny.
