Valley Tales with West Coast Güero

Sindependent Mediavalleytales.libsyn.com
Valley Tales is a curation of real-life stories, ranging from mild to wild, brought to you by someone you’ve never heard of! WC Güero, a lifelong artist and musician, has been performing onstage since the age of four. His professional career has been rooted in multiple creative outlets, including, playing in punk rock bands, working all angles of the restaurant industry, and painting murals and other commissioned art pieces. These roads would inevitably lead him on a colorful journey with close encounters of the psychedelic kind. Join him, and other interesting characters he's met along the way, as he recounts his experiences growing up in Southern California (not quite a Gen X'er, but not really a Millennial), with his own brand of eccentric, and often satirical, suburban lore about the ups, the downs, and the one night stands. Stay casual!

Not casual at all. Unbeknownst to me, I had been living with DVT for up to possibly 10 years, maybe even longer. We’ll never know for sure their age! But it was so long, in fact, that after the original clot sat comfortably for a while, a second...

003 - Get Outta My Bus & Into My Dreams :: 5/21/18

We're back, and very much still in business! Micah has had to take some time to dabble in real life duties the last couple few months, but, alas, the warmth of the summer campfire is glowing upon us again. The tales this week involve the theme of the "outer limits," and what can happen when things are pushed passed what is accepted as normal. First up, we dip back to the opening week of 2006, as Micah began his New Year with a puzzle to solve with his former roommates, in Echo Park, CA. In a tim...
