The "traveling player" (usually called a "minstrel" or "bard"), was a combination of today's TV news anchor, TV tabloid show host, and Bob Dylan. They traveled from place to place, eating and drinking in exchange for their ballads, some of which were merely songs with popular appeal, but most of which were the news of the day from other areas, coupled with the latest gossip about those in high places. With a good voice, and good musicianship on their instrument (typically the lute), and an effective way of blending music and gossip poetically, they were always welcomed, and sustained themselves well, though it was an itinerant lifestyle.
