Wow, that’s actually a very encouraging story. You know, if no one stops to listen to what you’re saying you might be

a) in the wrong place
b) talking to the wrong people
c) marketing yourself wrong.

And yes, we all need to pay more attention to things going on around us.

As much as this says, putting him in a metro stations was a bad idea. People commuting to work have trains to catch and places to be. It’s not their fault, but you can’t judge people’s willingness to stop and listen to a violinist on their reaction during a busy time.

I can honestly say that I haven’t passed by an opportunity to listen to a street performer. I wish I had once though lol.

My band used to play in Columbus, OH and after the show we would walk around columbus. We found a guy playing guitar and he was really good. We gave him a guitar pick and a cup of coffee.

Outside of a place called the Newport is a guy who is famous. He speaks only in rhymes and whether you give him money or not, he takes time to thank you anyways.

There was a guy who didn’t even attempt to pass for homeless. He was just sitting on a bench playing some guitar. I tried to give him money but he kindly refused and told me that all he wanted was for people to listen and enjoy his music.

This story makes me want to go back to columbus just to listen to the street performers

This isn’t a “holier than thou” comment. I just wanted to give examples of my experiences so other people may stop and listen.

The way, that is used to dignify Bell’s music, is alienating, too. He played on violin worth of 5 millions – and so what? Tickets to His concert cost 100 dollars? Is this the issue about music? asking about cost of instrument and tickets?

Metro station isn’t the place of lurking around – it’s place for hurry people. It’s extremely false place for Bach’s music.

I love taking pictures, and find it’s a way to stop and enjoy. However, it’s hard to realize sometimes you need to not take a picture, and just look.
