Guy Furrow, aka Miss Guy is a multi-talented rock’n’roll legend: singer for the acclaimed punk/glam band The Toilet Boys, deejay, music producer, songwriter photographer and makeup artist. Born in Southern California, he came of age and hit his creative stride in the New York City rock scene when it was still something to be wildly excited about. He became fast friends and collaborators with his mentors Deborah Harry and Boy George; his duets with both can be heard in this episode. The Toilet Boys toured North America, Europe and Asia with The Ramones, Motorhead, The Damned, Joan Jett, The Red Hot Chili Peppers and many more. As a deejay, he’s spun worldwide, everywhere from Manhattan clubs to high fashion shows and even art museums.

Paul Ruebens is an actor, comedian, and writer. He’s been featured in way too many films to mention as Pee-wee and also playing serious roles, including the flamboyant hairdresser/drug dealer in Ted Demme’s crime film Blow.

Also included: what it’s like to have David Bowie as your Plus One at an after hours party, anecdotes about The Go-Go’s, Joey Ramone, Prince and other rock stars...plus the therapeutic value of throwing pies.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices John Doe is a living rock’n’roll legend. Along with co-founding X, the driving force of the early LA punk scene, he’s had an incredible solo career as a musician and actor. With co-author Tom De Savia and friends, his books 'Under The Big Black Sun' and 'More Fun In The New World' are definitive first-person accounts of the Los Angeles Music scene from the late 1970s- early 1980’s. In this episode, John and hostess Pleasant Gehman discuss X’s new album Alphabetland, as well as diving into wild stories from their four decades of friendship...including how crazy the early LA scene really was. They tell tales of X’s first gig-in a living room, after-hours speakeasy The Zero, The Masque, drunken trips to Tijuana, Darby Crash and Top Jimmy, the namesake of The Van Halen song.
