If you had to go out in the street with an acoustic guitar in order to make some money what would you play?
Imagine that situation. You have made a living by being a musician but now due to bad economic times you can't find jobs & the only way to bail your self out of the hole is to grab your guitar go on the street and play So what would you play? lets put some ideas together.

Very good question! I use to play on the street long time ago! It's one of the best ways to gain fans!!! I have learned that it's not about what you play it's about how you play! If you have a good and fun show people will stop by and listen! And that's what you are looking for!

I agree man smile.gif I never tried it but, I am sure that it's just like on youtube - a good video gets a lot of views - a good street performer gets a lot of attention and maybe more money than other street performers.
