I went out busking today during my lunch break. Was fun; with some Sound Workshop gigs coming my way early next year, and some vocal recording planned in the next couple of months, I figured it would be a great way to keep my voice in top shape and such. And today was good as I felt really confident hammering out Third Eye Blind's Narcolepsy so that was kind of heart-warming.
Anyways some homeless dude came up and asked for a couple of dollars, to which I chuckled and explained that there was no real money in my guitar case - I use old NZ coins that are no longer in use (as in the old big 20's 10's and 5's) plus a couple of Australian coins I found around the house, and I hadn't been making anything (I legitimately had only made about $1 at this point). After he finally clicked as to what I was talking about, he took an Australian $2 coin and some old 20 cent pieces and said he was going to use them and just walked off... I couldn't help but just watch and think 'Y'know, a thank you would have been nice'
Homeless bums just have no manners these days
