Opis

Danny the Demon races into the underground. Beat up old guitar strung across his back, he takes four lightning strides past the ancient wrinkled newspaper seller with the big purple nose and reaches the top of the old wooden escalator. He grabs at a handrail and leaps three at a time down the rickety moving steps. His grubby blond hair flies behind him like a horse's mane. Matted and greasy, it hasn't been washed for months. Neither has his body. Neither has his jeans, t-shirt or plimsolls. Danny is a scumbag busker and he's late for his pitch. These fast-paced and hilariously entertaining stories about busking in the London Underground in the Eighties, Thatcher's UK. The music is wild, Punk Rock is rampant and the drugs are... well... Down in the London underground cavorting with the buskers that you've always seen and then wondered what they got up to after you had walked past them...
