    Idk what’s a better way to get some money if you have to

    busking isn’t bad. if you don’t know how to play, choose a quieter instrument and learn in public.

      Not so far away from my place there is a big mall where at the entrance there is is this guy playing styrian harmonica (I think, but his is smaller size and is 100% not Accordion). He has a speaker that plays backing-track.

      I play an instrument and know a thing or two about music. I swear that this guy just keeps playing random chords (more like random notes that doesnt make a valid chord 90% of the time) while backing-track covers him up. He must be quite often playing there as I see him on my random visits to the mall almost every time.

      He doesn’t even try to hide his skills, as some fake street musicians sometimes do. I wonder if he gets any money from busking.
