I love this place with all of my heart and my spirit from the day I was born and I simply don't know why. Sometimes I think it's a kinda of "soul connection" I have with that land. Until now I've been there once but I hope I'll reach my heart's home as soon as possible. My dream would be just to live there till the day I die: in the state of dreamers and lovers, freaks and winners, searchers and never finders.
LOVE YOU, CALI!

California is a queer place--in a way, it has turned its back on the world, and looks into the void Pacific. It is absolutely selfish, very empty, but not false, and at least, not full of false effort...It's sort of crazy-sensible. Just the moment: hardly as far ahead as carpe diem. - D.H. Lawrence
The L.A. 80's metal scene on Sunset Strip is one of the most important cultural and music events in the history of American music. I've been growin' trying to make a complete cultural photograph of that charming and frenetic period. One of the most important character of the scene was "the godfather of rock n'roll" Bill Gazzarri and his club, The Gazzarri's.
Open-minded, outgoing and charismatic rockin' people...
