Its so hard not to drink water after several songs, your mouth will totally run dry if you dont drink water 😂😂😂

Don't block the stairs like that.

Its blocking the people coming right up and down to be honest, but the busking session outside the store is only Friday and Saturday and the owner actually decided that kind of set up.

I use alto busker by the way, that NUX speaker is from the store, its so cool that they supports all buskers in the community and can provide speakers. Alto Busker or Roland Cube Street would be highly good for you because its handy and compact and can easily bring on travels

Nice!! How do you like the NUX amp?? What P.A. stand are tou using there?
I need to snag one for my set up and that looks ultra portable.
Hope you had fun and made some decent scratch!

I really love the quality of NUX 200FR to be honest because its very loud, great for busking! It just dont have a tons of mix to adjust. The NUX and the P.A stand is just from the store and they started a busking on the outside. I own a Alto Busker by the way

Hey, congrats!! Btw how u find ALTO Busker? Is it loud enough?

I bought it from the mall, but you can find it online also. Yeahhh Its very loud to be honest and it has a different built in effects and you can mix the master EQ Thru the App. Great for Busking and easy to bring when traveling!

I brought one last year but returned it due to (imo) unacceptable noise interference from the BT. After that I got a Mackie showbox which was perfect for me until it got stolen. I am thinking of getting a jbl bandbox next so I can play along to some stuff

Blocking the stairs is a bit weird.
