'Tis the season to be merry....
Dec. 8th, 2008 10:45 am...Falalalala, la la, la laaah!
Just finished our mad stint at the Lincoln Christmas Market and it was pretty good. We managed to do a little street singing at my request, and I noted how very different it was from just one or two years ago.
It's a bit sad, really. Thankfully, we were already marketing ourselves at slightly different niches, rather than just depending on the busking, so we aren't financially dependent on it, but seeing the worry and distance in people's eyes was just... sad.
I remember the last recession far too well.
