i was just sent a funny picture from an old friend of mine, documenting the pre-show antics of the last Guitar Wolf show in San Francisco, as the bassist died of a heart attack 3 weeks later- RIP Billy. It wasnt untill i placed why the photo was taken that it occured to me that GW was a heavy influence in my rock / punk rock interests. Awesome performance, combined with evidenced conviction (see "Wild Zero") re-cannonized the whole rock and roll identity for me.
