Lessons from Busking on the Eve of a CD Release Party

1) You never know who's going to show up.

2) Play like nobody's ever going to see you again.

3) On the other hand, nobody's paying as much attention to your performance as you are.

4) What you're doing is virtually unimportant in the big scheme of things.

5) But what you're doing is valuable and special.

6) That contradiction is funny!

7) You're always right beside the garbage bin.

8) People are asking you for directions.

9) There are always several directions to go, not just up or down.

10) It's easier to be singing than to be thinking about singing.
