There was a tramp in Liverpool who usedto have a cardboard guitar with stings drawn on in marker pen who would just strum away going "plinky plinky plink plinky plink...." ad infinitum!

you can't post images directly here anymore, you need to use a site like imageshack or something similar, host the picture there and then paste the link in your post hereOriginally posted by AntwhiplashBy the way, what is the HTML to put a picture in a post, just tried the usual HTML (copied from the page source of a post with an image on this site) & in the preview it didn't show up Would have looked boss!

Oh my god I think I remember him! I think one day he was down by Mathew St playing a paint tin as a drum wearing a kids plastic army helmet. With leaf camouflage. Early 90's!Originally posted by Antwhiplash

That's him, what a star he was, made quite a bit of dosh by the look of it, dissapeared for a while & we all thought he was dead, then he turned up again for a bit (always near Matthew Street), then dissapeared again.Originally posted by dave_kinkyOh my god I think I remember him!

I reckon he's touring the world with a cardboard orchestra

When I remember him he had upgraded from cardboard to plywood and if i think they painted a picture of him on the wall of the Irish Pub (name escapes me but probs had bicycles on the ceiling) he used to play outside. Nosoul probably used to drink with the fella - he'll remember his name.Originally posted by AntwhiplashThat's him, what a star he was, made quite a bit of dosh by the look of it, dissapeared for a while & we all thought he was dead, then he turned up again for a bit (always near Matthew Street), then dissapeared again.

This is obviously when it all started to go wrong, got to big for his boots & his genuine fans left in disgust, nearly as big a deal as when The Beatles left for London.Originally posted by Brass Monkey
I can't believe you mentioned that pub, how dare you, 1st went in there when i was about 17 & now i'm 40 & went a couple of years ago last & just cause you mentioned it now i can't remember the name either

click on the "insert image" button (it's the yellow one that looks like a mountain or summat), and then paste the link, hopefully that should work....Originally posted by AntwhiplashComment

I'm getting apples in the pub title but might be wrong (or was it Rosie O'Grady's?). Also - he used to do Beatles covers only.Originally posted by AntwhiplashThis is obviously when it all started to go wrong, got to big for his boots & his genuine fans left in disgust, nearly as big a deal as when The Beatles left for London.

I dispute your assertion that he earned bags of cash cuz he was a tramp and he smelt of poo and if he had earned bags of cash he would have washed, shaved and used a toilet rather than his trousers.I know your game Lionel! I can see what you really are!Comment
