Default First busking outing

My first busking outing.
One more thing ticked off my bucket list.
Nerve-wrecking and exhilarating at the same time.



Thank you

Thank you, I have been out a number of times after that first night and yes it gets easier each time, just need to keep building the repertoire so that it won’t get stale.

Thank you! If the knees give out from coaching tennis this might be another way of keeping me alive in my old age. 😂

I love it too, nerve-wrecking at first but after I got going it was really fun, I ended doing all 30+ songs that I can remember from memory, I mangled some of the lyrics but I guess you can be excused for that when you are 60. 😂

Excellent job, and your relaxed friendly style is perfect for the casual busking setting. Folks seem to be drawn to that.

Thank you. I had a number of supporters for the church choir who were more excited than me for my debut busking. 😂. They helped calm my nerves.
