Amazing as it is, the cat meows on cue to complete the verse of the busker's song. The crowd is filled with laughter!

After the song ends, the talented 'artiste' is carried around while the crowd applauds and cheers for it.

Most buskers are talented muses from jazz thru hip hop thru classical, Latin, and folk and rock music even playing some blues standards for fans in the know.

Parks can be more open to busking. It helps to know that North Carolina's Busker's Day welcomes select buskers from across the state to play music throughout the Museum Park. These kind of sidewalk attractions can only create a more vibrant community.
