(Pronounced “Boy Howdy!”)
The CREEM Archive presents the magazine as originally created. Digital text has been scanned from its original print format and may contain formatting quirks and inconsistencies.
HOME: In the dark.
AGE: Hey!
PROFESSION: Stroking for success.
HOBBIES: Simulating American Bandstand in his garage; telling the tale of the tape; young girls; the big beat, and getting his love high.
LAST BOOK READ: The Pied Piper Of Power Pop by Andy Paley.
LAST ACCOMPLISHMENT: Having hair that long in 1981.
QUOTE: “It’s definitely NOT heavy metal!”
PROFILE: Coming from the city of Aerosmith, J. Geils, the Cars and baked beans, Wild Billy nearly became a teenage pop idol with the Sidewinders. Next came a heavier act, but when America failed to pay the Piper, a solo career ensued. Two albums later, Billy’s proven that you don’t have to say “no” to a successful formula to become a rock ’n’ roll star.
BEER: Boy Howdy!
