Retrofest busker will blow heads off

Llanelli Retrofest on September 26 and 27 is hoped to become a spectacular and long-living annual in event the town’s calendar.

The busker idea has really taken hold and buskers are being invited from all over to turn up and show their talents.

Musicians and magicians have been booking their spots but organisers said they will even find space for those who turn up on the day.

There is a large university and college contingent of buskers with a wide spread of musical talents who are expected to be involved too with a £500 prize up for grabs.

One of the more unusual buskers to show an interest is a cross between a street magic show and a fun science lesson.

David Price, from Science Made Simple, will amaze, confuse and delight audiences with his unique, interactive busking act.

With his tricks and illusions David will spread the joy and wonder of scientific phenomena.

Retrofest visitors will have the chance to witness the largest whoopie cushion on earth and find out how it works, and at the end of the show, David claims he’ll use it to blow somebody’s head off!

David is performing at the festival in order to promote Science Made Simple’s live show which is on at Ffwrnes Theatre on October 23.

Any buskers wanting to feature in Retrofest should call 01267 224923 to register their interest.
