Music.

I was at McDonalds Commonwealth, QC earlier tonight.
While gulping down a Coke and eating surprisingly delicious McSpaghetti, a bunch of ably dressed teenagers came in- one with a guitar, one with a beatbox, and one with a violin.
They sat down in one corner and began to play "Breathless" by the now-defunct Irish band the Corrs.
As expected, the outlet's manager walked over to the group's "handler" (this lady in a blazer), and asked for a permit.

The lady was not able to produce any.
Ergo, the group was escorted off the premises.

I've been to the US and there are street performers all over the place.
You can't blame the staff at McDonald's. They were just doing their job.
I'm guessing the kids needed to raise money for something- hopefully something worthwhile.
While surprising, and legally off tangent, such can be considered to be better than those people who just walk up to you at food courts and ask for money while holding out some sort of a business card.

Just thought I'd share some of the sights and sounds of my evening.
