I used to busk with a friend on NYC subways. We each made $100 a day for 6 hours of singing consistently.

That seems incredibly low, was it a while ago? Considering how much money I see people connect sitting silently with a cardboard sign, I would think performing in NYC would net a lot more.
Its actually a lot more than most random beggars make - and at $17 an hour, more than many New Yorkers.
How much did your singing improve?
Lots. Got a lot more range.
