Day in the life of a Street Performer

Through my experience as a street performer at my local community I have learned street performing is as serious of a profession as any other occupation. Street performers endure the same long hours, competition, critiques, and economical struggle. By putting myself in a street performer’s shoes, it further validated my thesis that acts without high volume action does not attract as big of an audience. My act as a amateur guitar player only caught the attention of a few bystanders but none were willing to donate to my cause. I realized without a ‘hook, line, and sinker’, I am without bait and hopeless to become the next Joan Jett.
