Billie Holiday, where are you? 

By

A few new verses I wrote for the old jazz blues classic, “Tain’t Nobody’s Bizness”:

If I should take a notion/ To jump into the ocean,/ ’Tain’t nobody’s bizness if I don’t wear a bathing suit./ Yeah, at Pirate’s Cove, we run around bare,/ Without a stitch of underwear./ ’Tain’t nobody’s bizness if we do.

-- Brent Dannells - Grover Beach

Readers Poll

What is your opinion on public art projects in San Luis Obispo?

  • It's good for the community, and we should have more of it.
  • Public art is an eyesore and a waste of public funds.
  • Such projects are good, but residents should have more say in where and what they are.
  • I don't care about public art.
