BBC News: “Edinburgh buskers ‘to pipe down’”…
Those bastards!
Lothian and Borders Police said they receive up to 100 calls a day about the bagpipe noise and have to commit too many resources to dealing with it.
About 20 regular buskers have been asked to sign “acceptable behaviour contracts” banning them from performing in Castlehill and Lawnmarket.
If they do, officers said they could be arrested for a breach of the peace.
First they came for the pipers, and I did nothing… ;)
