Hobo Lifestyles #15

Brewsky's Redux

Text and Photos by Tyler Carey


A few weeks ago, many of the Great Hoboes gathered once more for some suds and satire at our favorite watering hole, the Bowery's Finest - Brewsky's on East 7th Street. (And no, we're not exploiting the guy in the picture up above - we gave him a few bucks... Nice fella, by the way, if you ever see him panhandling on West 14th, stop and chat a while.)

Marlene, rumored to be the daughter of the Unknown Hobo...


Tyler, chugging beers and laughing it up.


Wade, Jacob, and Benni, the Boys from Astoria, doing their best Reservoir Dogs. En route for wings, God Bless 'em!


Mark longs for the days of Laugh-In, when any B-Rate Celebrity could pop their head out of the gag wall and tell a joke. Or was he doing Marty Feldman in Young Frankenstein?


Mark gives the gag wall gag a shot.


The greatest presidential candidated of all time had to cancel a number of hobo-related appointments to catch a several weekend series of CZW (Combat Zone Wrestling) matches. The story about the dreaded "Exploding Cage Match" is still awaited, Brotherrrrr.


Wade does something to surprise Stirling.


Stirling and Benni mulling beverage choices...

Jacob rocking out the air drum solo to an AC/DC song.


Benni helping out with the rocking out.


Shaun's honest evaluation of everyone's rocking-out-ability.


Once again New Yorkers, newlyweds Travis and Michelle joined us for Brewsky's and nourishment. It's great when a bunch of the traveling hoboes come back to New York. Glad to have you back, guys!


Getting towards closing time.


Adrian, the best bartender in the Lower East Side, chumming it up with everybody over their tabs.


GOODNIGHT, EAST SEVENTH STREET! EVERYBODY OUT!
