    Hey,

    good idea but you wont get much of an answer in this forum, try posting it under SYSTEM -> FEEDBACK. This is where most forums are requested.

    Good luck

    Did he ask for a forum?
    And forums shouldn't be requested in Feedback, they should be requested in Forums.

    ANyway back to busking.
    Busking is fun alright!
    I've only really done it at night time when drunk.
    A few years ago we used to get a rake of cans and head down the village around pub closing time, sit outside and play guitars/bongos. We'd take requests and everyone would end up joining in. Great fun. Knacker drinking can be fun you see!
    One night people randomly started thowing money in. Nobody remembered to take it with them afterwards but someone was down the next day and seen a few kids having a great time finding coins everywhere after mass!
    Ahh what a pleasent story.
