BUCKHEAD, WILLIE & CRAIG THE THREE BROTHERS

Buckhead, Willie, and Craig aren't related by blood. They're adopted brothers. All three ended up in the same adoptive home as kids and were raised together in the Bronx, New York. Whatever their biological families were, they barely talk about it. As far as they're concerned, they're brothers.

Growing up, they were basically inseparable but absolute fucking problems.

As they got older, the three became notorious geekers. Their lives revolve around chasing the next party, staying out until ridiculous hours, and “booting up,” their slang for getting high, especially off misused pharmaceuticals. They’ll disappear for days together and somehow come stumbling back home like nothing happened.

And they have one place they're obsessed with:

Le Bain.

To them, getting into Le Bain is practically a religious ceremony. They'll spend their last money putting together outfits, argue the entire ride downtown, get completely wired before they even arrive, and somehow end every night with a new insane story.

But each brother geeks differently.

Willie is the unpredictable one. The more wired he gets, the bigger his eyes become. Eventually every one of his extra eyes is wide open and bloodshot. He'll stare at something nobody else can see and casually ask, “Y'all see that too?”

Craig is the disgusting one. He's constantly tasting, touching, licking, or inspecting shit. When he's excited, that enormous split tongue starts flying around uncontrollably. He barely needs to talk the brothers understand his grunts like they're full sentences.

And Buckhead is the self-appointed leader. He's the one calling people, finding parties, locating “Da Plug,” and dragging his brothers through the city looking for whatever they're chasing that night. His catchphrase becomes:

“You know I'm the only one who does the bucking around here.”

The irony is that Buckhead acts like he's keeping his brothers under control when he's just as much of a geeker as they are.
