Thread Name: Non-monetary tips given to buskers
Subject: RE: BS: Non-monetary tips given to buskers
Here are some handy ones...
"Don't play in the rain, it's bad for the guitar."
"If a pigeon shits on you, it's good luck." (for the pigeon)
"Your fly is open."
"Your G-string seems a bit low..."
And some handy questions...
"Got change for a twenty?"
"Do you play 'Seasons in the Sun'?"
"Wanna trade that guitar for an old Kent?"
I was once given a little gold peace symbol by a girl who also wanted my autograph. I was surprised, but agreeable. First time anyone ever asked me for it. I do not care much for busking.
