Mark Flynn plays Ripple by Robert Hunter and Jerry Garcia.
For Mark Flynn.
"I just play and take whatever I get," says Flynn, a soft-spoken California native with an extensive history of playing in clubs, coffee houses and bars--and on the Pearl Street Mall. "I don't believe in begging. I just don't believe in that. It bothers the businesses, it bothers the musicians, it bothers everyone on the Mall. You shouldn't be come up to and asked for things, you know, unless it's a friend or something."
Before singing and strumming a Van Morrison cover tune, Flynn explains that he's wary of any restrictions that could eventually lead to entertainers being banned from the Mall, but is critical of zealous panhandlers--often of questionable need. Avoiding the sometimes-rowdy courthouse section mid-M
all, and the often-boisterous downtown Boulder nightlife, he plays days on the west end, never putting patrons on the spot, he says. After all, he knows what that's like. "They ask me for money out of my case," says Flynn, referring to aggressive solicitors. "Sometimes I give it to them, but that'
s hard to do, you know, because I'm playing myself for money and for the people. I'll play even if people don't give me money." - by P.W. Miller (buzz@boulderweekly.com) the original clip is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3pEOHd-28o I took out some obnoxious commentary by the cameraman and a
dded some shots I took of the sky. If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung, Would you hear my voice come thru the music, Would you hold it near as it were your own? It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken, Perhaps they're better left unsung
. I don't know, don't really care Let there be songs to fill the air. Ripple in still water, When there is no pebble tossed, Nor wind to blow. Reach out your hand if your cup be empty, If your cup is full may it be again, Let it be known there is a fountain, That was not made by the hands of men.
There is a road, no simple highway, Between the dawn and the dark of night, And if you go no one may follow, That path is for your steps alone. Ripple in still water, When there is no pebble tossed, Nor wind to blow. You who choose to lead must follow, But if you fall you fall alone, If you shoul
d stand then who's to guide you? If I knew the way I would take you home.
