Some pretty slick drumming on Michigan Avenue. Even if you can't stand panhandlers, these guys are pretty good.

just imagine having an office that is right above where the drummer boys play. you can hear it all... day... long... Oh wait. I don't have to imagine, I get to experience the "joy." Oh the joy.

I shot this a while back, I love the bucket boys. They really have a distinct sound that is inherently Chicago.
as cool as it sounds.. it's annoying. go wow the tourists on Navy Pier.
Holy frijoles, it's like "Street Taiko!" Awesome!
Been there. Suffered through it. These guys are no heroes.
Although honestly, they aren't THAT bad, because it's more like background noise. What's bad is hearing the SAME songs OVER and OVER by the saxophone player.
Sounds like a candidate for your next big post: "Chicago's most inept street musicians."
ha! that would be fun. although i feel bad focusing on the bad, y'know? i'd rather focus on the good. Although it would certainly be nice if someone gave that sax player some sheet music of some different songs. I've thought of doing that. But then I feel kinda jerky.
Oh snap. i should be hitting the reply to the comment i'm replying to.
