lol. Nah, she's pretty sharp. Tender heart and likes music, but she won't get fooled again. (Hates the Who, though)

Saw this at my Whole Foods a few months back.

There has been one outside of Target/Best Buy on Millerville the last few times that I’ve gone to Target. It sounds much better than the normal sounds of traffic, sirens & people rattling their car windows with their bum speakers. It reminded me of walking down Main Street in Magic Kingdom. It definitely sounds out of place in Baton Rouge.

He’s Romani. Gypsy folk.

Total scam and not a new thing at all. We have one who has come for at least five years, always a few days close to Christmas. Sad thing is that he always has young kids sitting the van with him for hours a day on ipads. A few weeks later his wife makes a circuit at stores across town begging for diapers or "any help". It's like clockwork.

My violinist isn’t the smartest. He plays in front of the family dollar with giant we are hiring signs

The way that went down kinda had me pulling for the scammer.

Absolutely a scam. Gypsies. Go from town to town. Their crews are most likely running other scams too, like various contractor scams. These people are criminals are you should treat them that way.

Ya know, it’s better than the lazy fricks standing by the street holding a sign…at least they’re putting forth some effort. 
Btw I’d never give a dollar to either.

Classic gypsy scam. If you see a speaker, it’s a fake violin recording.

My question is: Is it the same family or an identical set of families? Would be awesome if they showed at the same spot and were identical.
