A new kind of ad sponsorship seemsto be blowing in the wind, street musicians. I snapped this photo one block from Grand Central Station in New Your City. Instead of the musician's guitar case asking for a donation, it asks by passers take their spare change to Dunkin' Donuts for breakfast. I think the folk singer is too well dressed to look authentic. A great way to support the arts or a sell out? What do you think? Is this a good idea?
