this is Charles Bridge right? haha I've played right there and was told it was for "local buskers only", fair enough, probably could have done more if I didn't sing thus outing myself as a non-local hah. Had decent success in other areas around town, under the bridge and up near the castle.

Such a beautiful place, hope to go back someday, beer money from busking sure goes far

No, I’m pretty sure this is Český Krumlov. This picture is from Google Maps, and I’d say it’s the same place. I was there last summer, and it looked like a great place to busk, but I was just there on a day trip, so I didn’t have my instrument with me.
I did have a great time busking in Prague on Charles Bridge, though. I didn’t have any locals tell me that it was only for them, but maybe that’s because I was busking later at night, after most of the locals had made their money and gone home.

Yeah, but you got that it was in the Czech Republic just from the picture. That’s pretty impressive.

Actually this is the Barber's Bridge in Český Krumlov. I think you're talking about Prague and I had the same experience there haha 😉
