So, maintenance just came to repair my oddly ‘jammed’ electrical outlet only to find a bunch of guitar picks inside…oops : ) Note to self: find new storage home for picks 🙂

Sitting on bench, waiting @Times Square for Downtown “A” train & and a guy walks by, puts his arm in the air & announces; “The incomparable Heidi Kole!” I look over & the guy smiling at me, adds, “Where’s your amp?” – not knowing him for the life of me, I answered kind of softly; “I’m actually just going downtown to the guitar store, so don’t have my amp” “Rock on Heidi Kole – we are the 99%!” he shouted as the train doors closed on his huge smile, his arm shot up in the air topped by his hand clenched in an occupy fist. This city’s eternally craaaazy : ) ♥

Kindest words of the night from my Youtube Channel ♥

“I just started reading her book. Love it. I don’t ever read and i’m hooked. Just started working in NYC and her book releates to how i feel so much that I really got into it. On the subway daily and it’s a huge change for me. Any idea where she plays these days and if she still plays? I would love to run into her on the subway to hear her in person!” ~ mfasouletos

Chase really dislikes when I pay my credit card bills at Banking ‘rush hour’ in Busking $1 that eternally jam the electronic bill counter

It’s better than a ‘mic-check’ when I go in every month – it disrupts the entire ‘flow’ and sends all the managers into a tizzy as they’re all at my window frantically counting $1’s just to get the line moving…

Oh well JP Morgan 1% – suck it up : )

Handing 10's of these to Chase Bamk @ "Rush Hour' is better than an #OWS Mic Check 🙂

28 degrees out. Need it above 32 or my picks break before I get through a song … c’mon global warming, do me proud 🙂

Quote of the day: “You look like you’re supposed to be famous” 🙂 #Busking #nyc

Know the value of a passing stranger’s smile – it is priceless, asking nothing, and can be life altering. Be that stranger. ♥

Tall, thin man on platform: Hi dear. Lovely to see you again.(drops dollar)
Me: Thnx (smile)
Man: I’m a comedy writer. I was a comedy writer for 59 yrs & I’m gonna write you something special…
Me: ReallY? Cool – oh, right now, ok
Man: I’m 72 yrs old & if I was 6 months younger I’d take you home to meet my momma ’cause you’re so cute. Have a precious evening dear. See you next time!
♥ those trains – never quite sure who’s entertaining who down there 🙂
