Diary Of A Busker Day 2291 January 3rd 2024
First spot of the new year so I suppose it’s worth writing down. There was no one at the Buttercross so I set up there…after half an hour Gordon came out from his flat opposite. He asked if I would like a hot drink with him – he was going to one of the places in The Square – I thanked him but said I’d just do a set then go home.
I got a couple of donations after Life On Mars? which I was well rehearsed at, as I’d done a Spewtube video of it on New Years Eve. I think it works well when it’s a bit quiet and the light is fading and there’s not many about and with the natural reverb in the street.
After 40 minutes, the order of the day, or should I say the last two weeks – the RAIN started so I packed up…and naturally it stopped the minute I started walking up the road, but it’s cold now; around 6 degrees, so my fingers had had enough.
