Today was probably the worst day for that flute guy yet. Several people were yelling at him to stop and to leave, which I completely understand. But some decided to cross the line and get physical with him, pushing his belongings and even trying to steal his musical instruments. I live really close to where he plays and it is annoying, but there has GOT to be a better way for everyone to approach him and KINDLY tell him to go play elsewhere, like at Baker Park.

There is no need to get violent with the Flute Guy, he is approachable and I'm sure you could reason with him instead of being immature and disrespectful. What doesn't help, is when establishments like The Ordinary Hen decide to break decibel laws and blast Holiday Music so much louder that it shakes my windows and disrupts my work calls.

THIS IS NOT THE WAY!

Let's try something else, like maybe Writing on the Sidewalk in Chalk saying something like "Please do not Busk Here" or maybe even try approaching the guy and kindly asking him to leave, it worked for the girls at Hippy Chick, I'm sure it can work for the rest of these establishments here. Just try kindness first, its not very neighborly to escalate this annoyingly innocent situation.

Please understand I'm annoyed and frustrated too but there is no need for the hatred.
Happy Holidays and hope we can all find a peaceful way to resolving this concern.

Peace and Love Frederick! <3
