I have just read Weird Scenes Inside The Canyon, by David McGowan and have recently purchased, but not started reading yet, a new book called "Chaos (Manson, the CIA and Secret History of the Sixties. I had to read McGowan's work a second time as it jumps around quite a bit. I take time to fact check and I was looking into Pic Dawson. This is how I happened upon your blog.
Would you consider being interviewed on my small radio show? Email me at nattijeff@mail.com and we can go from there.
Is it 100% certain that the person pictured is Pic Dawson? In most internet sources, this person is described as being Billy (Doyle), not Pic. There's a shot from the Cass Elliot "photoshoot/picnic" at Cass's house—you probably know it. In attendance was Joni Mitchell, David Crosby, Mickey Dolenz, Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker—and sitting on the left of a group shot was THIS guy! According to the info on it, it was Billy Doyle. Of course BOTH of them, Pic & Billy, were Canadian drug pushers who were about the same age (27 in 1969), and BOTH had been romantically involved with Cass at one time! (Same is said of Tom Harrigan.)
This is not Billy Doyle. Billy Joel was my father's best friend in Toronto business partner. I am 100% sure, as I have photos of Billy Doyle
