Day 14: Ear-shattering bagpipes

Today, I went out after work. I got there just as a guy with a bagpipe was packing up in the Pit, so I set up in front of Au Bon Pain. About 10 minutes later, Bagpipe-Man came back WITH ANOTHER GUY WHO PLAYED BAGPIPES and proceeded to drown my performance out entirely. My last song in that location was about ten miles off key because I couldn't hear ANYTHING. It was like they plugged their bagpipes into Marshall amps and turned them up to 11.

I moved to Winthrop Park, where I quietly played for another 2 hours. I didn't make much, but I had some interesting conversations with people who sat nearby to listen.
