Packed. Absolutely packed. The street was so clogged with bikers and bullshitters it made it a hassle to get back to the cars.

That third(4th? 5th) wave is about to crest.

And I didn't make dick in tips because people downtown suck.

Acoustic guitar and vocals, in regards to genre, everything. My opening joke is I do requests, all eras and styles... but I don't do Creed or Nickelback.

It's cheesy but you gotta work that crowd.

Above us lay the burdens, Below us lay the truths. We're somewhere in the middle, and we're all discontent too.

tbf I don't do mustang sally because it's a full band tune but shit I had to do Simple Man by Skynard tonight lol.

One time halfway through a song a guy came up and dropped a BENJAMIN 100$ in the case... and I just wanted to ask 'dude what song was it? Was it the whole thing or was it Easy by The Commodores? Was it the Bonnie Raitt one?'

People request and listen to all kinds of crazy stuff and profiling/guessing is worthless 90% of the time.

Last time I went several years ago it was super packed to the point I felt claustrophobic at times. With how it is today, I'd have a breakdown if I had to be in all of that.

It was very much one of those 'if you don't want to get sick, but want to do all of this, why don't you get fkin vaccinated' moments... I suppose most haven't had covid and don't care if they get it and have probably never been very sick since childhood makes up the population of this mass. It made me pretty comfortable with my Pfizer vax to not have to worry about big crowds like this.
