Buskers, buskers, buskers,
I'm a young guy who try to get money playing a little guitare and singing english, spanish and german songs with his French accent. (I confess that :"I'm french"... So excuse me if I don't write really well english !). I'm not a "true" busker, according to the definition some people have here or somewhere else... I'm a student and during my free-time I go to streets and I "busk" for a while. Since I've started, I've decided to put, near my hat, a paper or a board : Each time I change it. First, I wrote sentences like : Je n'a pas de talent- merci (I've got not talent-thanks), Je travaille plus pour gagner plus (I work more to get more -money- thanks), and then I've choosen to write sentences about politic or economic news.
In fact, people give money, in this way, for three reason : First : they have pitty of me -and they give money because they just see me like a hobo. They are not interrested by my music or my message. Second reason : They like my music... Yes, it's possible ! Third and last reason : They like the message on the board wich become more important than my aspect (of hobo ? ... I don't think so) or my music.
I may not be a true busker, but I like to play in streets, to make people smile with my music, my lyrics, my messages... Even if they don't give money.
Maybe a busker is a kind of sun, in a rainning day.
