Here are some quotes from an article about the GTOS ("Girls Together Outrageously") from Rolling Stone in 1969. I had to post it. They seem very...familiar.

"The GTOs in all their freaky splendor are...outasite. Each has a personality all her own, and together they are not to be believed--tummeling, chattering, laughing, telling stories, leaping about. The visceral reaction is full freak, but once you get into it, you don't even notice."
"'Girls don't show the emotions like they should,' one of the girls said. 'You know how it is when you don't have a boyfriend and there's a girl there to hold your hand, to say nice things to you. It's so important.'"
"Miss Pamela's Story: It started with Elvis, she said, when Elvis went "off to war" and she marked the days off one-by-one for two years on a calendar hanging in her bedroom. Later, she sent Paul McCartney a poem every day for several months. Still another time she "chased the Stones" and once banged on Mick Jagger's hotel room door...and he said he was in the shower...and she kept on banging, so he came to the door and opened it and he was nude...and she ran down the hall. She is from Los Angeles"
"What they have going for them is, really, a dream come true. They're a group now. Making records. Appearing in public. Once it had been decided they would be known (on future Billboard charts) as the GTOs, they rehearsed nearly every night for two months."
CUTE!
