Manly Busker 1, Arse Hat 0

Declan Kelly (left) in Manly confronted by disgruntled passer-by.
Founder and Publisher. Based in Brisbane.
Howard started Scene Magazine in 1993. Paul Keating was Prime Minister. Whitney, Janet and Mariah all had Aussie #1s and Mark Zuckerberg was 9. He (Howard, not The Zuck) likes Star Trek and a good Oxford Comma – way too much fun at parties.

Aussie reggae musician Declan Kelly was busking in Manly on Sunday when a cranky resident got in his grill complaining about the noise. And he wouldn't let it go.


After repeatedly making his (non)point – that daytime busking in Manly was noisy – he refused to leave and remained planted a metre in front of the artist.

Crowd support built momentum with a couple of bystanders trying to move the pest on while others yelling their support for the musician who decided music was the answer where discourse had failed. Kelly proceeded to serenade the now-famous douchebag leaving him nowhere to go save a hasty solo exit stage left to the jeers of the assembled.
