[SML] Busking colour list

[Riter, Andrew]

Fair question:

Open plan concert hall (not pros house).  Blonde room and stage.
Mostly classical music (no colours), but a fair portion of amplified music with the touring world music / Live Nation / Blues or Jazz groups.
Rarely do I see an LD with the show.

Not theatrical, some lectures (Jane Goodall is doing 2 shows this next week).  Lots of HS grads in June, with the obligatory HS jazz band or orchestra, or both.

Does that clarify?
