"I watch your videos on youtube!" (Who cares? If you appreciate a busker, LEAVE A TIP!)
Buskers don’t care about YouTube views, we busk to make money. Being told “I watch your videos!” once every three hours sets off my ‘Whoopee shit’ inner monologue, and doesn't pay my rent. Why not watch me on the street for a couple minutes, where I actually am, putting on a LIVE performance, instead of running past while you talk about #$%#! Youtube. For a lot of people, YouTube is more real than actually seeing me live. It’s hilarious. It’s disturbing.
We put up with thieves, drunks, addicts, aggressive beggars, the weather, the noise, angry and burned out pedestrians, to make money to live. If everyone just said "Sounds great!" or "I watch you on youtube!" and kept walking, we'd all die of starvation. BUSKERS don’t get paid by the city to stand there.
Let me make it clear: when I put up a video and it gets 5000 views (never happens), I make five cents. My videos get 500 views so that’s 0.5 cents. No one makes money off YouTube unless they have sponsors that pay them to whore their useless junk. You want to show a busker appreciation? Leave a tip. I’ll take a crabby old man shoving a $5 into my hand (real guy) while rushing past and not saying a word, than YouTube views any day of the week. With $5 I can buy at least 15 bananas. That has value.
