Competition (July 10th 2010)

Why do some buskers in Brighton find it necessary to use full amplification when they're busking, thereby blasting out quieter bands nearby who have an equal right to be there too? Sometimes it feels as if musicians are competing to be the loudest, fastest, most showy… and the general public seem to love it?! This isn't for me, I'm afraid. I'd rather play with musicians who listen to other members of their bands and actually feel the music.
