Members of the New Orleans subculture are known by many names. Transient youth or traveling kids.They are the equivalent of modern hobos. Over the last decade I've watched, photographed and listened to countless Street Bands in the Quarter. I have seen many different groups, hippies,black metal,oogle kids, crust and dreads, goths, and gutter punks. Something different appeared on the streets of the Quarter last year around Mardi Gras...OL'TIMEY. All of a sudden the street bands had the look of the Great Depression Era.
