The backstory behind San Francisco’s Girls has been reiterated so many times that I won’t reiterate it here. But I will reiterate how often it’s been reiterated. It’s been reiterated so often that people hardly even mention the glorious hair of frontman Christopher Owens. That stuff is transcendent, like it came out of a fairy tale or something. You know, like the golden thread made by that charming rascal Rumpelstilskin. Or that Rapunzel lady! In a just world, articles about Girls would always begin with “Girls, whose frontman Christopher Owens has some seriously great hair…” Also, Chet “J.R.” White has a pretty good haircut, too.
All this talk about haircuts has me completely forgetting about the actual subject of this story. Even though I could talk about haircuts ALL DAY, I should mention that Girls are going on tour in March. Accompanying them on most of their dates will be Unknown Mortal Orchestra. Hey, any word on their haircuts? If you have any info on the haircuts of Unknown Mortal Orchestra, send an e-mail to haircutlover64@hairmail.com.
