Yesterday I watched the documentary: Playing For Change
These what I got, the story about the great one (not just some street musician):
- It’s not about money, it’s music, freedom, and the people
- They do it because they love music, and they never give up for it. Sometime they don’t know what triggered it, just want to try it. They do it not to impress people. ‘Here I am, you don’t have to pay’. It’s a opportunity to show the public that is not the disability that count but the ability
- May be today people don’t care about them. May be in other day people sticked and hear your music. Out there they got instant feedback as what people think of what they are doing. If people like it they gonna see and drop some money or if they suck people gonna walk on by. But for sure different people, different experience everyday
- Everybody on the street is their friend, and they feel safe with them gather around. Best time of their day is when they realized that they sing in front of the crowd
- All of the world coming to them, no matter who they are, no matter what color their hair, no matter what religion they believe in, no matter how much money they got
Fun stuff:
- Some guy tune his guitar to a pay phone. It’s an F
- If you can’t defeat others, make a band with them
Music is belong to everybody. It’s a universal language. One day through music there will be peace on the world. It’s not her or his it’s ours.
