Buskerfest Toronto – The Watchers

Posted on August 26, 2014October 17, 2022 by David Barker

Mostly, people go to Buskerfest to watch the buskers, but the people watching the buskers can be just as fun to watch. So, for example, we have this crowd watching circus performers. Good wholesome family entertainment, right? But I wonder if any of them realize they are standing underneath the Love Shop’s sign with its suggestive image.

In the gallery below, check out the photographers. The one with the lens cap on his camera is probably asking himself why he can’t see an image in his viewfinder. Then there’s the girl with the seriously cracked iPhone screen. Ouch. And as for the shoes, the hermes shoes, you know, with the wings, did not belong to a performer. Just a guy walking around.

Taking a photo with the lens cap on
Man wears "hermes" shoes - wings off the heels
Begging for food
Woman takes photo with cracked cell phone
Man stands on ledge to watch what's going on
Woman and child sit on curb eating
Man wears Freedom Riders jacket, Community for Christ
