This guys great Bryter! One of our members Astrid introduced me to this guy and I was already impressed but seeing him play Sweet Child of Mine just makes him that much cooler! :grinthumb

Here's the song I was first exposed to from this guy! :grinthumb

Yes, I was in fact there..I LOVED it..it was St Georges Day aswell :cheers2

Beautiful .historic city..We went to The Roman wall ruins ,browsed the town .Victoria Bridge was lovely ..Catherdal, had lunch at the Mc Donalds there lol..I was sooo jet lagged the day we went..24 hours no sleep from Boston to Manchester..we went to the hotel dropped off bags/showered..went out..despite the second wind of energy..it was crazy but I just wanted to see as much as I could..what a beautiful place !

I loved every second..

Ed was busking that day...me and my bf were impressed to see him..although annoyed at how MANY people walked by without even watching..how rude :nw:

He really is amazing...

Lol Astrid I haven't see that last pic before - classic!

I love Chester, such a gorgeous city. From what I've been reading about Ed, the other city he busks in frequently is York - another of my favourite places!
