Day 16 could be summed up as "Get Dan as depressed as possible about his life, then turn it around to an inspiring evening" day.
I was 3 days without busking; I stopped seeing the point of pushing forward, and in fact, lost the meaning of living. I wasn't suicidal, but there seemed to be no point in the actions I am taking.
After work (9:30pm), I went to my city's Bluesfest - well, down the road from it, where people were leaving - and started playing over Blake Sheldon around 10:30pm, with a sign saying "Someday, I'll be headlining Bluesfest". People could still hear me, and paid me accordingly. People kept saying "I believe you'll make it!" or "You've got what it takes", some of those comments coming from very attractive women and it really gave me a boost! One woman smacked my ass (sexual harassment!) and ran off.
I played for roughly 2 hours, got into good conversations, and then bused home. I totaled a bit over 122$, a personal best for busking! I'll be going back as many days as possible!
