## Resource

Love in the food court. Heartbreak on the Sunset Strip. This week, we honor Valley Girl (1983) —the film, the myth, the neon-drenched fever dream—and the bands that made it shimmer. We’ve got Josie Cotton, The Plimsouls, Sparks, Bonnie Hayes , and some present-day weirdos keeping the eyeliner spirit alive. Come for the mall music. Stay for the dive bar dreams. And maybe cry a little in the parking lot. 🔗. Links: Bomp! Records Big Stir Records S.W. Lauden on Substack Austin Pets Alive!
