So I've wanted to do some busking forever and with the recent arrival of a USB-Zip drive, assembling a busking disk for my MPC has become easy enough for my lazy ass to follow through with.
My question is this: What have you done in the past to prep for busking? Do you have ny good tips?
My disc has a bunch of basic parts. Different single waveforms (load uber fast and are versatile), drum hits, bass sounds etc. I like the idea that 100MB of samples could provide infinite possibilities.

Also does anyone have any links to waveform packs in different keys/octaves? I've been making my own but it's tedious as all hell (*see above, I'm lazy)

I would be too afraid of being mugged, but then I lost faith in humanity ages ago. I agree, the hat is da bomba.

My friend really pissed people off when he setup in the subway blasting samples of the train on his Dr. Sample ... people kept running down there for nothing .... cops came..

^ performing in public with the idea that they will throw loose change in your hat if you're any good.

Hi ! I'd drop some loose change on you if you were wearing all that and the hat. And I'd definitely do that if you were old, young or maimed.

i've busked twice this summer. tried bringing a portable generator and such but find that the less you have to transport/haul onto the bus, the better. the current setup (which changes upon mood and what will fit in my suitcase) is completely battery powered and i usually just play till things die.
various toys
casio cz-101
yamaha cs01
yamaha su-10
boss sp-202
mixer: behringer ubb1002
amp: roland micro cube

Yeah I dunno if I'd wonder around playing an MPC in that hat. It's a mugging waiting to happen.
