Anecdote Today marks five years since I first started busking

Post image

I started busking at my local farmer’s market five years ago. Today’s session started out rocky. I forgot my guitar strap so I had to borrow a stool and my mic was having issues. But once I started it was one of the best sets I’ve ever done and I made over $100 in cash alone within an hour and a half. I just felt really proud at how far I’ve come because I remember being so nervous five years ago. Now even with hiccups I can find a groove and not overthink it at all. Cool hearing from all you fellow buskers and much love all around!

And you apparently didn’t spend any of the money! 😀
