Down to ground zero
More than about money nowadays we are glad about feedbacks, about the time, someone gives to us, noticing us. I don’t know, why for musicians it seems to be harder to have success than for writers or photographers. Watch all those poor street musicians: no one will notice them! Are they doing the wrong things? Should they disappear from the streets and hide in the desert?
compare: classical concert guitarist Giancarlo Rado

I enjoy street performers. Sadly where I live there are none. You have to pay admission to enjoy one.
May be they are interested to take some Sax lessons, may they spell the name of the instrument wrong… May they want to hire him to teach their children. MAy be only the municipal employees are allowed to play music, and everything else. May be we just aren’t so good at choosing our public servants. Or may be they never cared for music as they were skipping school for the cazino. One thing is for sure: Where music has no stage, people look sumber, unfriendly, heartless. Brrrr…. Is’t cold out there…
sharing is openness – we can find this often when we meet musicians, writers, photographers, bloggers – seldom if we meet lawyers, policemen …
P.S.:
thanks for your interview with the founder of wordpress at

he is really open-minded. thank God, that we have people like him also on the globe …
It’s easier for some to make money on the street than compete for fewer gigs in a bar… but it’s a good question.
