Default Who are Fred and Daisy?

anyone know?

And did they do the cover as well - because I always thought Damien had. But I guess that was just an asumption

I'd imagine that's likely a "Breakfast at Tiffany's" reference. Holly Golightly always calls Paul, her suitor, that because he reminds her of her brother.

Of course, it could always jokingly be about Fred Astaire. I've never once seen our man dance.

What we do know is that these drawings look a whole lot like Damo's other drawings. He has a very distinctive style. Many of us have seen him sketch little drawings on our autographs etc. so it's akin to recognizing his handwriting.

daisy reminded me of the great gatsby but lisa is no daisy and there wasn't a fred in the book... so my theory is a bust.

But that won't stop us trying, would it? And the Daisy=Lisa thing could just turn out to be right.

I presumed it was Damien and Lisa too. The Daisy Okell thing was what did it for me. I am a bit of a Lisa buff mind.

Or IS she? Daisy was a light across the water, a beacon. Lisa is a muse. Hmmm.
