The Devil Man


A busker that can seldom be found around galway.Not much to say about him except hes a familiar face to most galway people.

Jazzy or Bob Geldof


He is always in town.Most nights of the week you will find him dancing around the place like a pure drugged up hippy.He will dance to anything,even a guy playing the spoons.Loves the oul few tins of guinness or whatever cheap drink he can get his hands on.He basically lives on quay street at nite and during the day will be on high street watching the people going by.Can be found drinking outside pubs,talking to the smokers.

Seamus Hynes or Knacker Dwarf or Wee Man


I think that this guy is one of the most famous people in galway.As you can see he is vertically challenged(a dwarf).He is not to be messed with,can be violent if provoked and is always looking for a chase or a fight.He is very cheeky and is known to be a shoplifter and pickapocket.A but you have to like his strong personality.He is banned from nearly every shop in Galway City.His main hangout spots are the bus station,eyre square,and outside corbett court(usually talking to security gaurds).He will talk to anyone bigger than him that dont make fun of him e.g. gardai ,security gaurds,bus drivers.

"Nora Warts"


This woman can be seen in the picture (far left)
.Her nickname around Galway is "Nora Warts" due to the warts on her face.She is always seen to have a cigarette in her mouth and will always ask you for either spare change or a fag.Her hangout spots are usually churches e.g. Augustine or Franciscan.
