Gary Wilson

So real, goddamn

When a woman gets blue, she hangs her head and cries do do do do do doo

I love Lee Morse, such an inspiration. So much swag and style, a true artist, and the prettiest songbird. Nothing touches my heart quite like a flapper who can sing the blues and yodel.

Every heart is a lonesome hunter

Favourite new album: Timber Timbre Creep on Creepin' on

Was listening to Timber Timbre and doodling last night. Excited For the show coming to Hamilton on April 7th. It's going to be a charity event performed at a church so you pay as much as you like or can at the door.

California Girls

I wish they all could be

California gurrrls

This is a story that begins with LSD

It was Brian Wilson's first experience with the drug that inspired the song California Girls

Twenty years later David Lee Roth comes out with a cover version in the mid 80's. It also becomes a hit.

Twenty years later the Dresden Dolls made a music video inspired by David Lee Roth's version called Shores of California

And then there is the most recent influence of California "Gurls" by Katy Perry.

There is such a huge contrast between each band/singer. It's interesting to think how each musician defines or redefines male and female roles.

And the fashion award for the best California music video goes to... David Lee Roth. I don't know what did it, maybe it was the day-glo orange suit, or the multi-coloured, striped, stirrup tights. However, Amanda Palmer's Russian hat with kitty ears needs to be mass produced.
