Got on the picadilly line today and there was a busker with an
electric guitar and a massive amplifier. I didn't have my
decibelometer, but I'm sure that it was louder then 82dBa - so Health
and Safety should have come in and I should have been offered ear
protection. What is LUL's official policy on this, and will he be
banned and have his equipment taken off him?


Was he standing in an authorised pitch?


Yes, he was in the carling thing, but he was so loud that my ears were
still ringing at hyde park corner.


Would you please let LUL customer services know, using either phone or
email, with as many details as you can remember, including the description
of the person. It may be that he isn't an authorised busker who just set up
in an authorised pitch, hoping to avoid detection and removal.
