Otherwise, my apartment will hold about 5, as long as …

Buskers are aspiring musicians who perform live on the sidewalk, underground in a train station, or Central Park for free. Their musical styles range from acoustic to classical to folk and more. I was surprised to find there was not a single meetup dedicated to these adventurous musicians who play all over the world, so I thought I would create one. I have no idea where this will go. Perhaps we will find out where they play in advance and help build a fan base, or maybe we will find a venue and …
