Give change to buskers on the street

I love the music that people play on the streets! I never give them money though, although I usually do have some change to spare, mostly because it’s such a hassle to open my bag and then look for my purse and find some change in the middle of a busy street and sometimes it feels not a safe thing to do. I always feel bad because I love their music and feel bad at my not botheredness. So, when i’m pretty sure i’ll be somewhere where i’ll pass them, i’m going to beforehand put some change in my back or coat pocket ready to give them.
