You know you made it…having ‘Times Square’ as your venue…and Wikipedia has you listed: The Naked Cowboy…Occupation Actor, singer, songwriter, writer , years active 1998-present. I met ‘Naked’ after he got arrested after crashing a couple events…Reds Opening Day, and Dayton Air Show…I have a shrine of Underwear in the Rebel Studio.
Robert John Burck (born December 23, 1970; Cincinnati, Ohio), better known as Naked Cowboy, is an American busker and prominent fixture of New York City’s Times Square. His routine consists of playing guitar wearing only cowboy boots, a hat, and a pair of briefs, with the guitar strategically placed to give the illusion of nudity.
Is “Naked Cowboy” and “Naked DJ” an illusion…Couple of Buckeyes, hangin’ out at Times Square. lol.

Burck was also in an episode of the game show Street Smarts, and featured in the music video for Cake’s 2001 song “Short Skirt/Long Jacket”. He was also in Nickelback’s music video for the song “Rockstar”. In addition, he is known to have discussed possible television show concepts with several production houses, including one in the Greater Cincinnati area, though nothing is known to have come of these talks yet. ________________________________________________________________________________
