A Los Angelenos Guide to ‘Daisy Jones & The Six’

'Is Daisy Jones & The Six a real band?' if you read Taylor Jenkins Reid's acclaimed novel without adding that sentence to your search history, I will buy you a burger at Apple Pan. The world Reid created was so visceral and authentic that it was hard to believe the story was mere fact-laced fiction. Intertwined between the stories and retellings of lives made whole and torn apart by the oft-worshiped demon of "sex, drugs and rock and roll" are true historical events and many still accessible places. If you are a music history buff local to Los Angeles, it is likely that you are at least familiar with these sites, even if you have not been, such as I was. So, with the release of the hit Amazon Prime series bringing the real-world locations of Daisy Jones front and center again, my friend Shelby and I traded our cotton and polyester for denim and suede and set off hell-bent on following in the footsteps of a red-haired spitfire who took over the world–even if it was in a different way than she expected.
