You join a band with three street mollkins

You are so poor and wretched even the street people won't hang with you. But you befriend these three street Mollkins. They play hand made drums and a odd didgeridoo made out of a exhaust pipe lined with rubber and tin foil. You play soda cans and beer bottles that you have tweaked to have recognizable pitches. A amazing sound that onlookers are stunned to see is made from instruments made from trash. The donations pile up. Splitting the money even that nets each member two hundred bucks a week. Along with cigarettes, candy, fast food bits and such being thrown into the hat regular as well. The band rents a couple rooms to stay warm and protect they're instruments. These are good times. When the band would work all day and chill inside with a bottle of wine.
