It's winter temps, but clear skies, so I put on my long johns and thought why not? Partly on request from someone I talked to last time.
It probably seems a bit weird and a friend wrote me on facebook and wondered if noone shows up at these things. Obviously, I just take a pic sometimes right after I set stuff up and then I play. This is also the only area I'm initially allowed to use the full kit, hence other options. Big posters and banners are basically just lots of money I don't have, so that's the real reason I don't have them. I wouldn't mind. This is going to be a life long thing, so I'm just slowly building something while mostly focusing on my health and legal stuff.
Just having the balls to do it outside my old employer in a time of full blown PTSD was plenty challenging enough. Actually, just getting out of bed was challenging enough.
My hometown is just what it is and I'm not being agressive, it's just sort of a slow warm-up for the coming summer's tour and something for me to do. I'm making the right people uncomfortable and informing everyone else. Most political venues have been closed for us regular folks due to Covid, which is just what it is.
Reality of today's situation is about 100 people filming from outside the store on the other side of the road, most just stopping up for a while to watch and listen and maybe 10 people decided to drive down and check it out up close. There are posters all around though and I'll start writing reader posts to the local paper in desember. The politicians and leaders I've hassled continuously, but when they won't even listen to the police who decided to help me out, there's no point. I have to go indirect.
When I get the PA, there will not only be play-a-longs and stuff, there will be speeches.
