How to busk? Anything you do is busking if you as
k for money. Knowing how to busk is knowing why to busk. People always ask, “Why are you doing this?” and depending on if we want their money or their love we sing, “Because this is where I want to be, this is where I need to be...” or “We’re not doing it for the love of it, we’re just doing it for the cash.” Both songs will be available by the end of 2020 for €50 each. Knowing how to busk is knowing people. Spenders, lovers, haters, melters, winkers, mingers and dingers all deserve different songs. Last but not least, you must cultivate and maintain a nurturing, heartfelt relationship with the Gardaí. Taking this step not only allowed us to collaborate with a few Garda rappers but also afforded us a marked improvement in our personal safety. Respect The Gardaí. How to form a cultural collective? When you’re choosing a group of people to form a collective with, you should think beyond creative or professional assets and carefully consider the potential group chemistry and interpersonal dynamics. The most direct way to people’s hearts is with a homecooked meal so invite everyone over some night, chow down and chat shite. Welcoming the group into your personal space and showing them generosity establishes an environment of trust that is essential to the collective creative process. Be completely honest about your intentions and ambitions, but don’t push your expectations on others prematurely. Your role is to facilitate so you should observe, listen, encourage and empower. If all goes well and it feels natural, establish a new tradition and get the same group together once a month. If you can keep that up, you’re onto something good.
