Listening to China Girl this morning I realised that my very first band in Birmingham, Alabama (c.1984) probably played an unlikely role in my becoming a permanent expat because the singer/songwriter himself made a huge impression on me in his determination to move to Paris, which he did, and is still there. I left the US not long after him and am still gone... Read the whole rumination in the bio link. Photo: a hotel bar I saw somewhere in China, with a rock&roll theme (with beds of course). #chinagirl #bowie #iggypop #themthievincrows #thenickrocks #thenickrocksbham #expatstories #paris #china #rocknroll #bands #inspiration (at Shanghai, China) https://www.instagram.com/p/BttBvugnNuN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=t91yrd25hx9g
