Money and the Magic

Most people didn't know whether to kick us or kiss us. - Phil Collen

About Me

Are you a fan of the cult glam rockers GIRL? Well then you've come to the right place. Talk about the band here, share thoughts and opinions, share news tidbits in the comments section as it relates to the members of GIRL, etc.

My Interests



I'd like to meet:

Gerry has both a solo music page and an art page here on MySpace. He also runs the GIRL MySpace page. The links to those pages are below as well as links to other sites you might find well worth a look. They are either other ventures in the multi-faceted careers of the members of GIRL or projects they were involved in but not ones fronted by them.
