Can't blame the TSA for trying, they weren't the ones plotting to kill everyone else, I hate a lot of what has changed in our country in order to keep us safe.

Street musicians were once a charming part of the Manitou experience. Manitou's use of a permit system for street musicians seems to be a good way to provide a set of rules and guidelines that can be used fairly. The permit system should be expanded to year round, bringing back the provision of having shop owners approve of musicians.
