Description i really dig this song by Gogol Bordello, and felt like throwing Gogo into some reactions to the song that i felt while trying something a little more conceptual.

incidentally, i came up with Gogo Bomango and then a friend introduced me to this band, and the rhythmic (and phonetic) similarities between the names themselves struck me as awesome, even more so when i discovered how awesome their music is

"Undestructable" lyrics copyright Eugene Hutz & Gogol Bordello

I must say that this is actually a pretty deep piece here VanHeist. This not only says volumes about the character Gogo, but also in a sense you yourself as her creator.

I'm very much impressed with you. Especially when coupled with your most recent journal as well.

simplyput, my favorite piece of yours. The expressions on GoGo match the lyrics perfectly. To quote the kids... "this is full of win"

Yep, the "over 35 committee" is coming to arrest me know.

hmmmm.... maybe I can hire the clones... GoGo to beat the over35police senseless, and her clone to babysit my daughter, so my wife and I can go out...

and you're welcome. Fantastic piece.

a reinforced hockey-stick with a cutting edge would be a sweet weapon. maybe with a weighted blade, a sturdy neck, and a counterweight on the top end for sweeps

I find it interesting that Gog, who probably has massive technological weaponry at her disposal (or at the very least big-ass cybernetic junk to strap to her body), chooses a slingshot and a hockey stick as her rabble-rousing gear.
