The guy performing is Joe Smee, one of the organisers of today's heaving all day folk music festival upstairs, downstairs and outside of The Old Queen's Head in Islington. Joe was upstairs. I also saw...
...downstairs, these guys, bluegrass psychobilly-esque Pete David and The Payroll Union....
...and also downstairs, in the distance, a bit of gypsy jazz from, I thought, Pete David and the Payroll Union, until I found out that the other guys were Pete David and the Payroll Union (see comment below - thanks Banjo Fett), so now not sure from who...
...and upstairs again, harmonic folky blues from Little Robots ...meanwhile...
...outside, The Dog Roses warmed up.
On the way home, with less than two weeks to go, I finally encountered my first tube buskers. And I'd had sufficient beers to not feel shy about taking a photo...
...and another one of the tube clientele...
And just to round off the day, here's a picture of a band rehearsal underneath platform 3 of Peckham Rye Station. I was standing on platform 2. The last time I stood here watching a band rehearsal (I was also waiting for a train) the train was delayed so I saw about twenty minutes worth. About halfway through, the bloke next to me said, "They've played this one already!" like it was a gig.

Hi there, glad you enjoyed the day. It was great little fest. The second picture is actually Pete David & The Payroll Union.
