In The Valley of Sin, I Mean Sun, When Go Go Girls Reigned Supreme

   Here's a potent image from my youth.

   Stuart and I are working on a story about the wild old days in the Valley of the Sun when gangsters met cowboys and Go Go Girls reigned supreme.

   In our Kemper Marley-esque saga, while the Chicago boys gravitated to Bourbon Street on E. Thomas, the cowboys favored JD's In The Riverbottom or Mr. Lucky's on the westside. Both gravitated to the naughty Go Go Girls who freelanced at Tony "The Horse" Cerkvenik's Fifth National Bank on north Central. La Viva The Backshooter was a draw, literally.

   Someone said it's Chinatown meets Blazing Saddles. Somehow that makes total sense.

   Our friend Rob Word compiled a fitting tribute to all the Western icons we lost last year.
