Cheers Terry says on Sep 6, 2008, 13:32: They're "performance artists" trying to make a few bucks. They're a normal fixture in many cities all over the world.

Cheers Terry says on Sep 6, 2008, 14:55: I don't understand why you think they're a pain. Don't you just ignore them?

Sonny says on Sep 7, 2008, 07:36: I enjoyed them. It is better to see them then to see a person standing on the corner with a sign saying "will work for food, God bless" then when you offer work they get angry. At least the people in black are making the effort to do something. Hot would probably be an understatement.
