3 Must-Busk Songs About Gambling
3 Must-Busk Songs About GamblingStreet PerformancesBusking is not just about performing the songs that you, as the artist appreciate sometimes. You need to draw spectators’ attention by playing well-known songs that will make them listen. With many casinos being tourist destinations of note, it’s a great idea to busk out these gambling songs for a great win from spectators. The songs on this list are sure wins to a great busking session. The Gambler – Kenny Rogers Probably the most famous song about gambling and the perfect song to win a buck or two from spectators when busking. Kenny Rogers first released the song in 1978, and many other artists followed by covering the song. The popularity of The Gambler in busking can be heard all throughout the Las Vegas strip busking scene. Elvis Presley – Viva Las Vegas Elvis Presley is not only the king of Rock n Roll but also of Las Vegas, where gambling and busking are alive and well still today. The song celebrates the love and passion that gamblers have for this famous gambling destination. It stands as a popular and well-known song about gambling to busk that will resonate with most music fans. Bob Dylan – Rambling, Gambling Willie Bob Dylan is not an artist known for his willingness to gamble, but he is one of the best storytellers in music and tells the story of Willie, who is a rambling gambling man. As with most of Bob Dylan’s songs throughout the 60s, this song saw a lot of attention from gamblers and music fans alike. With these songs, it’s clear that casinos have been influencing the artistic and musical mind throughout history. With the digital and online world taking over entertainment as we know it, a fully licensed platform such as BetTarget might even bring a new wave of inspiration to today’s buskers through online gambling.

The Ultimate Guide to Planning a Music Festival
The Ultimate Guide to Planning a Music FestivalEvents and PartiesMusic festivals have long been one of the most important and popular aspects of live music in the UK as it brings music fans from all over the world to enjoy some of the most spectacular bands and musicians performing. But everything starts small, and by already having experience in organising smaller gigs, the next step would be to organise a small music festival. Follow this guide to understand the most important aspects to consider with planning your first festival. Funding and Sponsoring  As this is your first festival, it’s important not to empty out your life savings. Rather get sufficient sponsorships and funding to help somewhat with the costs involved in booking the bands and the venue. Soon as the venue and the line-up is paid through sponsorships and funding, you are on your way to a lucrative festival. Getting local buskers involved is a great way to introduce lesser-known acts as well. Get the Finer Details Down The finer details are the more obvious details such as locations, genres of music that the bands should be involved in, ideas of particular bands you want to book, and how many people are expected to show up. Once the overall idea of what type of festival it should be is clear, then the location should be considered with the utmost focus as too big or too small of a venue could ruin your festival. Secure Necessary Permits The most important permits are Noise Variance Permits, Health permits, and insurance. Insurance is an extremely important aspect of booking a festival as sound systems and equipment can be quite expensive. Sort Out the Line-up Before tapping yourself on the shoulder to finish your planning, you will need to book the line-up that already clarified that they would be available and interested in taking part in the festival. Your line-up is seen as what will attract fans, so it’s important to book bands that are well known to those in the community and city where the festival will be taking place. With these important factors to consider with your first festival, you need to remember that festivals should be handled responsibly with safety in mind for those attending the festival. [...]
An Overview of the London Busking Scene
An Overview of the London Busking SceneStreet PerformancesBusking is an iconic tradition throughout many countries but has been particularly synonymous with many famous British musicians. The activity of busking allows any musician to perform in public areas to be seen, heard, and appreciated. London has always been a perfect destination for many musicians to busk as there are many passers-by, and it just adds more sophistication to the city’s atmosphere. Here is a bit more information on how to get around busking in London. Where Busking is Allowed  Busking is allowed in public areas, pitches (through the busking scheme), and on the London Underground Stations. In public areas, it depends on where a person wants to play. Each different part of London does have its own set of rules. Asking fellow buskers whether you are on public property or not is a great way to get started. Pitches, on the other hand, are readily available to be used by any busker at any time. These are designated busking areas that are scattered across the city. The good thing about these pitches is that they are situated in the most popular areas in London, providing a lot of traffic. The Underground Busking Scheme The Underground Busking Scheme assists buskers in becoming licensed performers. In order to receive the assistance, musicians need to go for auditions that will ultimately provide the musicians with the ability to legally busk in more areas throughout London. They are then evaluated on their creativity, skill, and overall performance in front of a panel of music industry professionals that are part of organisations that plan the biggest music festivals. The Best Spots Some of the best spots are found by using the designated pitches throughout London. But Lunch time and rush hour will surely provide great success with your busking session with more people being able to witness your talent. By getting licensed as a busker, chances are much better to get the best spots on a more regular basis and be able to learn the underground busking scene. Information on this article is seen as some of the most important aspects to consider when wanting to take on busking throughout London. [...]
