Message: To answer the question of amplification - it is not allowed in Bath
officially but I feel the council shows considerale restraint in imposing
sanctions, which occasionally they do when noise levels get manic and there
are too many complaints. This is the big issue - noise decibels rather than
amplification as some trumpeters can be heard blocks away and some acoustic
instruments drowned by ambient street noise.We are a mixed blessing to
retailers and the Council tends to act only when forced so I think they are
pretty liberal and I have seen some visiting buskers treat officials quite
aggressively but the local council manage the streets. Bye Laws will
eventually be drawn up to regulate busking in Bath and I hope you agree the
best regulation is self regulation to preserve this great musical freedom
that we buskers take for granted and the public by and large enjoy.

Message: Have just posted message on bathbuskers but will repeat here. We watched a
beautiful girl singer with her keyboard colleage on Wed, 9th Sept, in the
square by the pump room. (Girl had dark hair, a straw hat - we think! - and
a short skirt! When we went to buy their CD (£5) they had gone. Could
anyone help? We and our Australian visitors would very much like to
purchase CDs!
Thanks. Email: jeancoates-at-ntlworld.com

Message: Hey, I am desperately looking for buskers to take part in a Buskathon along
Bath's main high street to raise money for Oxfam. The event will take place
in the lead up to the Oxjam Music Festival which will be taking place in
Bath in October. If anyone is interested in getting involved and helping
out this could lead to some excellent musical opportunities!
