Not even playing the guitar - just (fairly obviously) looking for attention.

The hipster invasion has already begun. There's already some scruffy hipster who plunks a guitar in his pajama pants some mornings outside the F train entrance on 1st ave. Not even playing the guitar - just (fairly obviously) looking for attention. Bet his parents back in Ohio don't even know that the $2500 rent they pay for his one-bedroom is helping destroy the neighborhood...

@abrod -- sounds like you are describing Hippie Lou, who has to be in his 40's at least, unless there are two guitar strumming pj-wearing guys in the neighborhood? He's an interesting cat with quite the past. Say hi to him some time.

@Spike-

I think this guy is younger than his 40s, and he's new to the area too as far as I can tell - I haven't seen this guy before. Only seems to pop up in the mornings on 1st ave between 2nd st and Houston.

Unless Hippie Lou has a multi-year migratory pattern maybe?
