Beale Street and the Memphis Movie Bust...Busk

After a few hours busking Beale in the early evening on Friday, Speedsquare was invited to play in front of a restaurant/club. Within minutes of setting up, a camera crew showed up, filming a video for risk management? and asked Speedsquare to create a song for them on the spot. The cameras drew a large crowd (I think the music actually drew the crowd :) and some cops, which promptly shut down the busking, which was outside the jurisdiction of their permit. Damn. It was a great five minutes though!
