For a few hundred dollars Steve agrees to perform at the fine dining restaurant Rhapsody in Nelsonville, OH. With degrees in Telecommunications, Journalism and Political Science one might think that Steve would choose an easier lifestyle for himself. Yet Steve is determined to do what he loves, whether or not he will ever make enough money to earn a comfortable living.
Huge crowds of enthusiastic college students will often come, sometimes taking up the entire sidewalk, as Steve Zarate performs their favorite requests. Best friends and total strangers join to listen to his catchy melodies every weekend in Athens, Oh.
Before a long night of performing in the cold, Steve Zarate prepares himself by smoking a pipe of ganja while listening to cassettes of Neil Young and Elton John in his van alongside Union, St. Steve has not been feeling well this week, yet he will still attempt to play his guitar in hopes of making just a few dollars tonight.
