      Yeah, I hadn’t heard any buskers on the Stockholm metro for years until a few weeks ago when a guy I had seen earlier busking, came onboard again with his weird wooden box with metal strings that is played with two hooked sticks and started playing.

      There are places where this is common. They hope to get paid (I assume to get them to leave). Sometimes they’re accompanied by pick-pockets who pray on the distracted.
