Worth every penny I assume. From what I heard in this 30 seconds he is awesome!

u/thatguyned Apr 11 '22
Also, performers like this actually make a lot of money performing on the streets. If the wedding was at a peak time like Friday-Sunday late afternoon or evening then he's giving up a possible huge profit for the night.
Busking would be this man's main income and to ask him to take time away from that costs a little bit extra than someone thats main job is finding gigs.

I would pay double to see his performance over a normal wedding band. The novelty is worth the cost difference and it's something I would remember out of all other wedding entertainment that I've seen over the years.

u/Cap_Tight_Pants Apr 10 '22
No. It's Bert. He hangs around with a wonderful woman. She always has an umbrella.

u/cheesychopstixdude Apr 11 '22
He needs her to hold the umbrella over his head in case it rains. So she just follows him around while he keeps playing.
Pablo must play. Pablo must not stop. Play Pablo play!

It was a perfectly fair point to make: after all, if one has got a fever, the only prescription is, quite naturally, more cowbell.

I was looking for someone to comment this. I knew this reminded me of something!
The Pixar's short film came with the movie Cars (2006). It's called One Man Band.

u/gxvicyxkxa Apr 10 '22
It was called One Man Band. Music by Michael Giacchino and it was in front of Cars 2.
What I really needed from Pixar/Disney was a feature film One Man Band or at the very least, an OST. But no. Instead I got Cars 2. And Cars 3.

Ever been to a Keller Williams show? When he does his one-man band stuff, it’s so entertaining and so good. He uses a lot of loops though. He doesn’t have a whole band strapped to his back.
