Busking Seattle – Ballard Farmers Market \u00a0– \u00a08 May 2022<\/p>\n

A busy day! \u00a0Chatting with Dunworley after I finished his sketch, I learned that he specializes in songs about Irish\/Americans participating in the US Civil War. \u00a0Talk about a \u00a0niche! \u00a0His propaganda says that he does requests; I tried to arm-twist him into “Whiskey In The Jar” with an offer to sing along. \u00a0This despite his having just done a different tune with identical chord progression. \u00a0Somehow he didn’t take the hint, nor the tip that would have followed. \u00a0Cronin is quite a character; for starters she signs her name backwards! \u00a0Some of the bass work seemed plucked from the ether, other pieces had a more classical bent, read from music on a stand. \u00a0Later in the day she had switched to guitar. \u00a0Salzano comes from a family of musicians; he pulled a Rahsaan Roland Kirk, playing quite well two reed instruments at once. \u00a0When I came upon this duo they were between numbers; Brudi announced, “We’re waiting for Johnny…” \u00a0 \u00a0I was tap tap tapping my foot, (with impatience, not rhythm), so I called out, “Waiting for Johnny!” \u00a0After the reward of that first double-blowing number, I gave ’em a “Worth the wait!” shout-out. \u00a0Soggy Possums had a mix of old-time and contemporary (“Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald”).<\/p>\n
