- I'm just about to leave the house
and go and street perform,
but before I do that
I thought I'd show you a little bit of slight of hand
with a ring.
Sorry if my face gets chopped off by the way.
Here we go.
(light hip hop music)
Bonus trick.
Hey.
Alright, let's go and street perform.
Oh yeah.
I have arrived at Leicester Square
and it's really really quiet.
Just me and Louisa.
How's that coffee goin?
- It's great thank you very much.
- Good times.
So now breakfast.
Very essential.
And then busking hopefully no rain.
Conversation looks riveting chaps.
(light hip hop music)
What's all this security people around,
I don't get it and I don't like it.
Who are these people?
There was like five of them, look this guy
in the jacket here, the marshal.
It has been a pretty slow start to the day
for me in Leicester Square.
I was the first person here, but I didn't really wanna go on
and perform because it was a little bit quiet,
it was also raining on and off.
So until I know that it's gonna stop raining,
and that it gets a little bit busier, I'm gonna hold off.
It might be one of those days where I just do one show
where I give my all and then I call it a day,
'cause I don't think I'm gonna get two sets
if I keep holding off, we'll see.
Morning!
- [Man] Hello, Steve.
- How are you doing? - How are you?
- I'm good.
- [Man] Oh yeah me too, me too.
- It's so quiet today, yeah I'm filming.
You're on the camera, say some words of inspiration.
- Is it quiet?
Oh sorry, hello.
- [Steve] That's it, that's your words of inspiration?
- I'm a nice person.
(laughs)
What's inspiration?
- Inspiration is like, you know, something motivating
to make them more happy.
- Oh right, oh yeah, okay.
- You're like, "I'm nice."
(laughs)
Go on, words of inspiration.
- I meant like, do what you enjoy to do.
- Yeah, there you go.
- You don't have to do anything that you don't like to do.
- [Steve] Please tell me you just wear this everyday.
- Do I look pretty?
- [Steve] Why are you, it's amazing.
Any reason?
- It's Friday!
- Friday.
- You have to celebrate, it's Friday.
- [Steve] I love that.
- It's funny.
- Oh, I want one.
I need to get a hat like that for my street show,
I'd never have a problem building a crowd again.
I was about to just bite the bullet and perform,
but it's just starting chucking it down again.
This is gonna be that kind of a day all day, isn't it?
Oh well, at least I got yoghourt.
And let's be honest coming out was worth it
just to see that amazing hat.
Joker, I know you love your weather app,
but you have to admit, it's raining.
- It spat.
- [Steve] No it's raining.
- No it stopped.
- [Steve] No it's still raining.
And this is kill a show kind of rain.
Umbrellas, that means no.
- [Joker] Sun's coming up.
- It literally, like, just stopped
as I was nearly finished packing up.
- This is not acceptable.
(light hip hop music)
It is a pretty quiet Friday,
but I think this is as good as it's gonna get.
So I'm just gonna give it a go and start a show.
One, two, one, two, three, testing, one, two, three.
Alrighty.
(hip hop music)
Audience, give Lauren a huge round of applause.
Take a bow, and guys, stop stop stop.
One last thing, one last thing.
These guys walking off right at the end.
Guys, that is the end of the show,
please don't spoil it now and walk off.
This is what I do for a living.
If you want to support live entertainment,
come forward, make contributions to the hat,
and then that way I can entertain people tomorrow.
Thank you very much.
You have to be aware of what?
- Not running over tourists.
- [Steve] Yeah, or anyone really.
- See that bus?
Those two ladies are not paying attention,
the bus almost ran them over.
The only reason they're still alive is 'cause
the bus guy noticed that they were not paying attention.
- Oh yeah, the tourists themselves,
they don't really give (bleep), do they?
- [Mike] No, they don't.
- So, my show didn't really go very well.
It wasn't terrible, but felt okay,
but the audience weren't physically present enough,
like they left partway through the show.
Not all of them, enough of them that it hurt.
But now me and Mike and Cinerea are going to Covet
to pick up your battery, eh?
- Yeah.
- And then you're gonna do a lovely, fun show.
- I am.
- What's your best busking advice?
- Don't have nervous breakdown during the show.
- That's always good.
- Postpone it till after the show.
- That's what I was telling you.
That was my advice to you.
- That's the best advice I've ever heard.
- It is good advice.
You're confidence and happiness will go up
once you've worked right?
- That's it,
- I'll ask you after.
This is kinda like a (bleep) it day,
where I just like am gonna spend all my money on food
and just enjoy that a lot,
and not feel any guilt about that.
Spend all the money I earn, and then feel okay.
- [Mike] What's your idea for your filming right now?
You gonna film a whole bunch of B-reel
in the middle of us talking?
- Yeah basically.
Hey, Sergio.
So, Mike, do you think there's
a such thing as a bad audience.
- No.
- 'Cause I didn't think there was.
- I think there's such thing as a bad day.
- Yeah but is that for the performer or the people?
Like, I mean the people in the context of,
if it's a bad day and you have a crowd,
that's a bad audience, if they're not responding.
- Oh, is it?
- I don't know I'm asking you, you're the pro.
- Well, no you're telling me though, right?
- Well when I, before I busk,
I didn't think there was such thing as a bad audience.
- Sure, I agree.
Is that what you want to hear?
Is that what you need, home viewer?
My agreement, for Steven?
Home viewer, I want to let you know,
whatever he says, DynaMike agrees.
If it's raining, and you have a bad show,
the next guy, if it's raining and you're doing a show,
you're gonna get wet, and so is the next guy,
unless it stops raining, right?
But if some guy shows up with an umbrella,
or a tent, then his crowd is dry and so is he.
(hip hop music)
- Are you ready, are you hyped, are you excited,
are you ready, are you hyped, are you excited?
- I'm trying to get myself into the head space.
- Yeah?
- It's gonna be reciprocal.
- You got this.
- Get a little bit of a cheer in the crowd.
- Remember, you're the best busker in the world.
In all-seriousness, though, Mike is like
one of the best buskers in the world.
So this is gonna be a really great show.
(hip hop music)
I was reading through the comments
on the video I did a couple weeks ago.
It's really nice to see that you guys like the day
in the life of a street performer stuff.
I'm sort of still getting the hang of what it is
I want these videos to feel like,
but I'm really keen on making more videos,
I'm trying to upload every Monday,
don't hold me to that, you know what I'm like.
But I quite like the whole day out vlogging around thing,
and then combining magic as well.
So some of them will have not a lot of magic in them,
some of them will be really magic heavy.
But I quite like the style of just sort of
taking you with me to wherever I'm going,
so that should be cool.
Anyway, my last show of the day is coming up pretty soon.
Right now I do two shows in my forty minute spot.
So I do two twenty minute shows in my set.
But I'm really wanting to take that
and make it one longer show,
which is what most of the really good buskers do.
But it's kinda scary because I want to rewrite my show,
do a longer show, and I just know
that it's gonna be worse at first.
You know once you get used to something,
I've kept the same show for like pretty much
the entire time I've been doing this.
I've had a very similar show.
So changing that is gonna be really weird.
And it's gonna get worse before it gets better.
But I think going with one show is probably the way to go,
just doing one longer show as opposed to two little ones.
Yeah, I'm gonna get ready and then go on.
- Check that out.
- [Steve] Aw, dude.
- From new machetes.
- [Steve] Oh my gosh.
People don't think juggling knives is dangerous.
- Check that out, I got sliced right on my thumb.
- Oh, alrighty.
Just finished my last show of the day.
It was way more fun than my earlier show of the day,
so that was really good, ended on a high.
That's the end of the video,
follow me on MySpace, that'd be great.
That's the end.
Thank you.
