Abby! I'm grinnin ear to ear overhear seeing your KZbin channel grow! I used to busk with the gypsy jazz guys/gals and miss the days seeing you and your crew jam hard on the st. Downtown. Been in love with your sound since day one, and your efforts to protect permit free busking since day 2!. Now I'm in love with your channel, we need more positivity, and honesty like this around the world!

Abby, you are far more than "a". I enjoy watching you perform, interact, share your thoughts, be a bus owner, love animals, flash those smiling eyes, meeting all the folks in your circle (like Chris and the tater boys) who like you, make busking an art that more of us get now. Thank you Abby, bottom line is... you bring joy and that is the greatest talent of all. ⚘

You are much more than a percussionist. We are much more than the job we do. I'm a luthier, I love my job so much, but I know I'm more than that, and I am using the same patient and care on details that I apply to my job, to build a better version of myself. I used to think that I would like to leave to the world the best musical instrument. I know now that that thought was incomplete. The world need more loving and empathetic people, that should be the main target. I'm working on it, and you are a good guide for my in that process Thanks very much Lady, much love

Street performers are amazing. I’m originally from New Orleans and there are a ton of street preformerà from musicians of all types, singers and other street performers... it’s amazing to watch in the touristy area of New Orleans. I learned to play spoons decades ago by my grandpa. But never continued it. But I have sung with tons of local performers. Street and big names.

My favorite song she would sing up until a stroke took her from this earth was.... I wish I was a single girl again. Merry Christmas lady, you rock~

I have not worked a day since 2005 as I can't wait to get up and carry on capturing moments in peoples lives !! I have worked but it never feels like it and if anything I work for the toughest boss (Me). Because if its going to be its up to me!!! Thanks again!!!!!

Hi Abby, I've been discovering your videos for a few days, and I have a deep respect for your persistent sense of belonging. I will never be a musician, something in me sounds bad, but I am fascinated by the variety of techniques and styles of spoons players (of wood, steel, plastic or even ceramic), all over the world. You almost convinced me to try, maybe just to make a little noise, even to download my little daily anger. Thank you, I will pray for you before I fall asleep tonight.
