Yeah, that's what I would have done; busking at night or early morning. As for gigs ... well, not folk music, and I really don't want to play anything other than folk. My voice isn't really suited for it, and folk is my passion. As someone suggested to me before, there just might be some musicians who play other types of music for regular gigs who are closet folkies.

Actually, to introduce a bit of thread creep, ... (not that we didn't have an element of it before) the local science-fiction group has sprouted a singing circle. who woulda thunk it, but now we sing filk and folk music on a semi-regular basis. It's an extremely informal get-together at a friend's house, just the way I like it ...
