Run across any lately? It's been about 3 months, but I saw a guy in his 20's on a freeway offramp with a guitar. He didn't sound too bad either.

Not since the pandemic hit. There used to be a busker who played guitar on weekends who was fantastic. He earned his tips. We used to have a cafe with a street piano that was popular too, but both the cafe and piano are gone now. I guess the busker moved on and the cafe folded.

I would love to run across something like that. An outdoor piano. It used to be something you only saw in the high-end places, but I love the sound of a good piano.

When I was in New York City last year there were street performers. I don't see many around here. It would be awesome to see though. I don't live in a big city though.

Not around here. Encountered a couple in Niagara Falls last week. The place I have seen them the most is NYC. They were everywhere there! My favorites were in the subway.

I haven't encountered any in this area, but it makes me wonder if they'll continue to perform on the streets with the pandemic. Even with the vaccines rolled out, things aren't just the same anymore.

I saw a street performer last weekend while visiting a friend who lives in a small Midwestern town. It was the last place I expected to see a street performer. He wasn't too bad either!
