Dodderyoldfart?

I guess it’s the Fringe, or the Fest­iv­al itself that brings these guys here, but this par­tic­u­lar busk­er is well worth a look at. Today he was in Man­ner­’s Mall. I could hear him a block or so away & the sound he was pro­du­cing made me won­der if one of the theremins was in use some­where close. But no he’s doing it with a viol­in, what looks like some satan­ic tun­ing fork, and a whole lot of oth­er odds & ends. And he speaks into a mike too.

Hard to describe, eer­ie, haunt­ing, beau­ti­ful. He got my small change. And also had me won­der­ing if this was Dod­dery­old­fart down in Welly on a work­ing hol­i­day. (Hah! Blog­ging insider joke.)
