Most of them are but some of them are ace musicians.

[Cantankerous]

they piss me off, they stand outside work and play their guitars all day in the heat, trying to make me feel bad for them when i go out for a smoke. sorry, here's a dollar if you'll shut up.

There's an Australian musician named John butler who used to busk whilst making records independently. He's still independent and now a millionaire and selling out venues all around Australia.

Ani Difranco was a busker, too.

I can't hate buskers.

[Cantankerous]

but i can hate ani difranco.

[Norma J]

Why would you want to do that? Now that would be a waste of time.

I've always felt really sorry for anyone who works in a shop outside which a busker has set up his pitch. Particularly if the busker plays violin, as the music is always so depressing that it could cause mass suicides. String quartets are okay though.

[Norma J]

Well, I asked the question.

I'm not sweaty, unshaven, or even a woman for that matter.

Ani is queen of the female musiciansFULLSTOP

[Cantankerous]

that award goes to the biggest, hairiest, most unshaven sweaty woman of all time. patti smith.

Not the guy i mentioned though.He plays the shit out of the instrument and he's so good the National lets him play in the main foyer too.
Buskers who play Beatles/Led Zeppelin/Pink floyd/Eagles and Oasis covers deserve severe stoning from random people.

[Norma J]

Nah, Patti is good, really good, but she's no Ani. Ani's a self-made girl with integrity.

With that description of Patti, she too could be at a lilith fair.

[Cantankerous]

patti is too badass for those lilith fair pussies with feelings. rock n roll nigger would offend them all.
