About Me

OLD SCHOOL GROUPIES
A TRIBUTE PAGE TO
THE FABULOUS GROUPIES
OF THE 60s, 70s and 80s!

The groupies and muses of rock's classic era are the ones best remembered. They were the rock & roll goddesses, descending upon touring bands like angelic civic groups. In those days, we took care of our boys from the moment they stepped from the tour bus or plane to the final tearful goodbye. THE PLASTER CASTERS ... THE GTOs ... THE FLYING GARTER GIRLS ... THE SUNSET STRIP GIRLS ... THE TEXAS BLONDES ... THE L.A. QUEENS... HELL'S BELLES ... if there was power in being a groupie, there was more power in numbers. PAMELA DES BARRES ... CYNTHIA PLASTER CASTER ... LORI MATTIX ... PENNIE LANE ... CATHERINE JAMES ... DEVON WILSON ... SWEET CONNIE ... MORGANA WELCH ... JENNIE DEAN ... SABLE STARR. And what about the Rock Muses like PATTIE BOYD ... BEBE BUELL ... PATRICIA KENNEALLY... ...Why do their names still glitter today, decades afterward? How did they manage to parlay youthful fun into a lifelong fame?
This would also be a good time to send hugs and kisses to all you sweet young thangs keeping the spirit alive: Thank you the BBAs, the PLASTICS (all of the chapters!), the LIPSTICK LOLLIPOPS, the ROCKER TWINS, THE BLUE JEAN BABIES, THE AQUANET SPRITES, ROCK ANGELS, THE BAND BOTHERERS and all the other girl groupies! Mmmmwah!!!
BTW, OLD SCHOOL GROUPIES appreciates you looking at our page but WE ACCEPT ONLY GROUPIES (and please be over 18, my little darlings), BANDS AND MUSICIANS AS FRIENDS. Sorry, no civilians, no labels, no publicists, no managers, no suits but we'll accept clubs and poster artists, eh girls?

Were in Bob Lefsetz!

Bob Lefsetz is my favorite rock pundit. He has a mail-out rant that sometimes comes two or three times a day, and except for the ones about skiing (as Danny Fields warned me), they're uniformly excell...
