There is no "story" behind street performers -- or at least, there is no ONE "story" that fits everyone!.

For some, performing on the street is how they make their full-time living!. For others, its an occasional afternoon to earn extra pocket money between other professional gigs!.

If you have photos of street performers and need a story about them, I suggest you interview them directly and find out their story!. Or create your own fictional story using them as characters and use your own imagination!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Many street performaers come from broken homes, who didn't have support or the will to break out of their alcohol issues!.
They are weak-willed and most of them could have been proficient entertainers but contend themself to live and earn on a daily basis!.
I am pertaining to the homeless type as these are the most common or subway musicians!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i busk occasionally at a Saturday market, I'm doing grade12 at school, and it's just a fun and informal place to perform pieces that i am learning, and muck around with fiddle music :) (and earn some pocket money on the side ;)
i've been busking since i was 6, starting off singing with my sister and now i do it by myself, or with a friend, playing viola,

but there are several other groups who play at the same place, these ones in particular;
an Irish band (ages 12 - 16, i think)
and a very talented string quartet (ages 17 -18)
and these two groups do it for the publicity and the joy of performing in a fun environmentWww@QuestionHome@Com
