NEWSFLASH: Guitar Man Is Funny.

Yesterday, a reliable source reported that Guitar Man, aka Crazy Guitar Man (CGM), made a funny joke. CGM was perusing CityArt Gallery and saw his own reflection in one of the works of art for sale there. It was a mosaic frame around a mirror. He smelled of urine, was wearing his usual clown-like outfit and carrying his guitar. He screamed: “That’s ugly,” and pointed to his reflection in the mirror. Since everyone else in the gallery assumed he was crazy, and/or calling the art ugly and not his reflection, they ignored him. Our source laughed, making herself appear crazy and in some weird psychological cahoots with CGM.

Other sources have reported that CGM is not homeless though he could easily be mistaken for a homeless person. They say he is “way too together” and must live somewhere and have some kind of financial support. CGM is known to stand in doorways of the mid-Mission (around 20th Street usually on Valencia) playing songs on his guitar that presumably he wrote himself. “He could be very talented,” a fellow mission resident speculated. “It’s just impossible to tell beneath his appearance of homelessness.”
