[NOTE: THIS IS AN OLD POST. YOU CAN NOW MAKE YOUR OWN PROFILE ON BUSK.CO]
We’re relaunching The Busking Project. When the updates are finished, you’ll be able to register and control your own profile just like you’re used to on other sites. What makes ours different is that it’s specifically for buskers, and contains no ads.
The content on this site will no longer be created by us, it’ll be created by you.
Okay. You can either fill in the contact form on this page, or send us an email with the following headings. Those marked with a “*” are mandatory.
One other thing: if you’re already on our website, you don’t have to do anything: we’ll transfer your profile for you!
NAME*
EMAIL ADDRESS*
WHETHER YOU WANT YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS SHOWN* (yes/no. If you don’t answer this, we’ll assume YES: buskers on our site often get hired for gigs this way)
LOCATION* (city AND region/state AND country!)
PROFILE PHOTO* (either attach it to the email, or give us a link)
GENRE* (circus, dance, music etc)
SHORT BIO (50-60 words max)
EXTENDED BIO (as long as you like)
MORE PHOTO URLS AND/OR YOUTUBE LINKS
CONTACT INFO (facebook fan page, myspace etc)
WEBSITE URL (if you have one)
TELEPHONE NUMBER (if you want it shown on our site).
The more info you give us, the better your profile will look, and the more chance there is of your getting hired by digital passersby. Also, the better you look, the better we look. The better our site looks, the better busking in general will look to our audience, and the more opinions we can change for the better!
