Your various government entities seem to have a lot of questions for you in the new year. Sound Transit wants to know how its pilot to allow busking in Capitol Hill Station is going. As occasional users — why leave the Hill, right? — CHS can’t really identify any downside to having the performers be part of the station.
But Sound Transit also wants to hear from all you buskers. Here’s the survey:
What kind of busker are you, anyhow? Sound Transit will ask.
The survey will be part of Sound Transit’s evaluation of the pilot and decision on what to do next with the program when the test phase ends in February. CHS reported here on the pilot’s September launch and the program’s goals of helping to “retain existing users, as well as attract new users, and is consistent with promoting transit-related activities.”
Do you have a favorite Capitol Hill Station busker? The survey doesn’t ask but you can let us know.
Busker playing #Hamilton in the Capitol Hill station. Dropped some coin. Gave him a hug from you, @Alex_Horwitz and from @Lin_Manuel .

Oh, and before you ask, still waiting on more info regarding broken escalator fix :)
Escalator fixed. No further info from ST, apparently.
Cool, survey taken. So far the buskers have been very good.
I took the survey but how do I view the results?
I love musicians in public. I swoon for a violin anywhere. In Paris I got a horn player to play Strangers in the Night. I love this kind of connection with random people. Go buskers!
