That tit on Grafton Street (1 Viewer)

[Jimmy Magee]

I think this has come up before, but what's the story with that guitar-laden twat that sings at the top of Grafton Street some of the time, but mostly just abuses passers-by? I was walking by yesterday when our genius says something like "And here we have Jackie Chan" as some inconsequential Oriental lad goes past...???!!!! And the most disturbing thing was that the crowd all laughed..?? I mean I'm as racist as the next guy, but you're not suppose to actually SAY it to them...

His main "talent" is for abusing passers-by. Always draws a huge crowd, which is the horrible part...he's usually at the top of the street, outside the shopping centre, on Sun afternoons - he has to be seen/heard to be believed...

You're right about them other guys too...bloody hell...and they get a crowd as well.

Slayer was the king alright. I loved the little basketball yolky he had for people to throw money into...can't imagine there were many three-pointers though, unfortunately...

Lizzie - what's the gimp's name? For shaming purposes. Should picket the gigs or something (I suggest, but of course I would never be arsed)

..his nom de plume is "MC Savage"..which is nearly as bad as his act. If you waqnt to abuse him he drinks in the library bar on friday afternoons. Make sure you spill a drink on him for me. I saw him get a dig off a guy who was walking along with his kid and yer man called him a peado. True story.

boy that would be sweet to witness

did he cry?

say he cried.

I'd never have believed it, but I have seen the guy.

Was there mention of this guy on Thumped before? I seem to recall someone telling a story where they gave him loads of abuse and shut him up...I'd love to hear the story again I tells ya...who was it? You know who you are...

 

[Latex lizzie]

..I tells ya he shut up quick smart when that guy came back a nd gave him a punch..I didn't see him on the street for ages after that.Knob that he is.I cant imagine what he does at his gigs..abuses waiting staff as they walk by.I'll go next time and throw bottles.

This David McSavage you're talking about? That's yer man's son isn't it.....I was nearly gonna say David Norris but that couldn't be right! David Andrews? Is he his da?

Saw hi on the late late before - bit of a spa. snobby like. I'd have to see him again before making a judgement but based on that jackie chan comment - I mean that's just poor. real poor

 

[Theseus Mock]

it is the fella that plays around BT (opposite M&S). Saw him the other day. Has a red streak going through his hair?

Yeah, he's sad.

 

[Wedge]

i love the foreign guy up the road from tower, shoutin his lungs off and just generally embarrassing people by walking towards them


he has powers

 

[nonemoreblack]

David Mc savage actually recons he's the funniest man in Ireland at the mo.

No seriously!he really does!there was a column in Hotpress a few months ago were he was claiming that the comedy scene is shit and he is the only guy that isgood

Here's what to do if the irritating busker is pissin ye off. Go to a shop buy some eggs (and a bag of flour if possible) and walk by the prick real lost and dopey lookin, when he heckles you, turn around swiftly and pelt him with eggs, the bag of flour would be the topping. Snazzy

 

[the pope]

that cunt will get a serious smack from me.

one day he started slagging off a young scumbag who was obviously drunk by calling him a knacker and that.

i was standing there and everything the scumbag said the cunt with the big nose impersonated. i thought yerman was gonna kill. him.

sadly no.

he's not funny, very arrogant, and posh as fuck.

 

[strn_0]

Take consolation in that one day his luck will run out and he'll get his head kicked in.

 

[the pope]

all joking aside, who wants to organise some egg throwing?*

no, not the hairy bassist from stoat, but the omelettey kind. *

not the shaggy singer from ommelette, but the oval, shiney kind.*

*not herv

I'll remember that for the next spiders gig

I've seen that cunt around temple bar square. One time, i walked past him in my black leather coat and he called me a "satanist". Which is a pretty lame insult, but the fact that he interrupted my listening of Missy Elliott on my headphones fucking bothered me.

I saw another incident involving this prick in temple bar as well. He fucking insulted some bloke for about ten minutes because he was wearing a tracksuit, calling him a junkie and shit. Maybe this was the same incident mentioned above, I thought he was gonna get knifed. Or punched at least. But unfortunately not.

He wasn't the same guy who was on the late late show making really bad jokes about scangers and foreigners? Looked like the same guy...

My favorite busker is the foreign guy with the accordian (usually near tower records) who sings magnificantly and purposfully obstructs anyone walking his way, especially young women.
