Rock Groupies, Where Are You Now?

Ah, the rock sluts of yesteryear, famous in their own right, not just from their carnal proclivities hinted at in rock star biographies, but little snatches of classic songs that hail their promiscuity. From the innocent flinging of a pair of moist panties upon an atrium stage, those darling groupies made their way to a sort of proto-celebrity by virtue of their omnivorously hungry loins.

But where are all of the 60's most epochal groupies now? Yes But No But Yes takes a look. The whole post is a hoot, but I'm sure you're wondering, who's that guy with the plaster phallus above?

Cynthia Plaster Caster earned her name by making plaster casts of rock star’s penises in varying states of stimulation. She began doing this as a means of meeting musicians, but the art took off bigtime when Jimi Hendrix became her first superstar cast in 1968.

Caster’s life was the subject of a documentary made in 2001, entitled Plaster Caster, now available on DVD. In 2002, Cynthia founded the Cynthia P. Caster Foundation, a non-profit organization that helps to support cutting-edge artists and musicians. She still makes plaster casts of penises and breasts, but she picks and chooses her subjects and no longer works on comission.

That settles it. ToM really needs to get some groupies. Unfortunately, I suspect our mostly-female writer staff would inspire the entirely wrong sort of applicant, at least from my perspective. On the positive side, though, maybe we could sell the resulting toothy conches.
