Hey Hawk(!),
I'm feeling with ya!

As 'old', as we get,
the Streets never get easier.

(But they're just as fun!)

We're shaking our knees,..
on another corner,
wishing you well!

Thank you very much, Gallagher. It´s difficult on so many levels. And a bit scary. But fun at the same time. Almost schizophrenic. But the jokes write themselves.

Yes, you will.

I wish I could get back out there. I would be stuck unless I could get to a bathroom on a frequent basis.

The toilet thing is real Smile and one of the reasons I, with a heavy heart, decided to ditch my large, heavy but very stylish oooold trunk for a smaller rig. Had a really hard time when going to the public toilets because of its size Smile

No, no, no! The doctor has said my prostate is fine. Just old, and weak.

After the last magic club meeting I was at, the group stuck around talking about bladder and prostate issues...lol. Gives a good indication of who the membership consists of.

But back on track to the OP. Hawkan, check out the blogs and writings of Jimmy Talksalot. He works the streets with just his pockets, or a small back...and plays big.

Thanks, imgic. I have his book since it first came out and follow him on Substack. Great content. I believe I have too much material on busking???? But one can only read so much… I try to keep some things in my mind, like ”Dare to be bad” (Gazzo) and ”It’s better to go out and do something, than staying home and plan something” (Jimmy)

My chop cup routine just works so well, so I have to use a small table. The rig I use now is easy to log around.Don’t know how to post a picture here so you could see it.

Big breakthrough today. American dollars in the hat, people scanning the PayPal sign - but best of all I was more loud and in better spots. Chit-chatting a lot with great people from all over the world.

Man, I thought it would be very easy to draw a crowd today, being our national day and all but no... More fun and educational than staying home. Killed some darlings, you gotta be a bit buddhistic and let things go... Even came up with my street-artist name from now on, just popped into my head. It was so obvious the whole time when I think of it.

Short one-coin routine, Mongolian pop-knotish routine and my chop cup routine. All working very well. Even better after cutting some stuff out.
