This man is a legend. He's been busking in Nottingham City Center for over twenty years. He happily sits on his little stool hitting random notes on his brightly colored Xylophone.
Given the funds this guy could be bigger than the Spice Girls, Eminem, or even the Beatles if he was only given a chance.

Now, you can suppot Xylophone-Man in his quest to be a Rock God*! Print these pictures off, plaster them all over your town, make T-Shirts, stick them over your little sister.Whatever!

Xylophone-Man needs YOU!


*You won't actually be helping him, what with the pictures being free. But hey. He's a legend and we love him.

He doesn't play any recognisible tunes as such...more like free-style jazz, with a hint of foot-stompy.

The way that he is holding his stick thing makes him look like an amateur...

Well, why don't you go down to Nottingham High Street with you rGamalan, set up opposite Xylophone Man and see how the public responds. You'll be strung up in seconds for trying to usurp the Fantastic Mr XyloMan on his own turf. It's the Hobo law.
