This musician came from Detroit and has a special story. He used to live there but he lost his job and was homeless after serving in the U.S. army as a Vietnam veterean. He moved all the way to Holland and is now a steady street musician in The Heague, nearby one of the most expensive wearhouses (De Bijenkorf). I gave this musician in this ocassion 15 euros (19.70 dollars) cause he can't pay his bills. People who know him better say he is a talent and could be the new Bob Dylan in the 70's if didn't get homeless. Now he has a small apartment. I asked him to play a song of my favorite artist, Sir Mark Knopfler. He played Sultans of Swing of Dire Straits. His name is Chuck Deely.
