I had a chance to talk to DJ Cornbread at "The Torn Flannel Affair" tonight. Seems a comment on the role or lack thereof of the dj in busking led to a sincere visit to the City of Norfolk offices in hopes of spinning outdoors for Art | Everywhere. The issue is currently unresolved as to whether the city will grant permission for a live dj on the streets or if he or she even needs one, but Cornbread will stop back by tomorrow. He hasn't found anything in the letter of city law that would exclude djs from the kind of permissions granted to buskers. Then again, Norfolk's city government has traditionally been unfriendly to anything that smacks of hip hop culture.
