A few weeks ago, we had a Music Box that featured a street performer playing familiar Zelda songs that reminded one of our fans here on Zelda Dungeon about his similar experience. Jakob Astin came across musicians in his own city performing for the wondering crowds in the streets. What so special about this performance you may ask?
