Her name was Bullwinkle. We called her that because she had a face
like a moose. But Tommy, even though he could get any girl he wanted on
the Sunset Strip, would not break up with her. He loved her and wanted to
marry her, he kept telling us, because she could spray her cum across the
room.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t just cum she sent flying around the house. It
was dishes, clothes, chairs, fists—basically anything within reach of her
temper. Up until then, and I’d lived in Compton, I’d never seen anyone get
that violent. One wrong word or look would cause her to explode in a
jealous rage. One night, Tommy tried to keep her away by jamming the
door to the house shut—the lock was long since broken from being
repeatedly kicked in by the police—and she grabbed a fire extinguisher and
threw it through the plate-glass window to get inside. The police returned
later that night and drew their guns on Tommy while Nikki and I hid in the
bathroom. I’m not sure which we were more scared of: Bullwinkle or the
cops.
We never repaired the window. That would have been too much work.
People would pour into the house, located near the Whisky A Go-Go, for
after-hours parties, either through the broken window or the warped, rotting
brown front door, which would only stay closed if we folded a piece of
cardboard and wedged it underneath. I shared a room with Tommy while
Nikki, that fucker, got the big room to himself. When we moved in, we
agreed to rotate and every month a different person would get the solo
room. But it never happened. It was too much work.
It was 1981, and we were broke, with one thousand seven-inch singles
that our manager had pressed for us and a few decimated possessions to our
name. In the front room sat one leather couch and a stereo that Tommy’s
parents had given him for Christmas. The ceiling was covered with small
round dents because every time the neighbors complained about the noise,
we’d retaliate by pounding on the ceiling with broom handles and guitar
necks. The carpet was filthy with alcohol, blood, and cigarette burns, and
the walls were scorched black.
