Thread Name: Non-monetary tips given to buskers
Subject: RE: BS: Non-monetary tips given to buskers
I was in a pub one time(it's truly disturbing how many of my stories start out like that) with a friend and we had just run out of money. We were sitting there nursing what we thought were to be our last beers. All of a sudden i had an alchohol-induced urge to sing, so i did, with my friend banging on the table in rythym- when we finished, thre was an unexpected round of applause and a very welcome round of drinks! Obviously everyone else in the place was inebriated too :) Anyway, encouraged by this, we carried on for th rest of the night, being joined by someone on a guitar and ended up leaving with more money than we had come in with, several small objects of variable legality in our pockets, and a blood alchohol level that was far from sensible. It's funny how these things just happen...
