  • Nick thank u so much for making this. Its put together well 2. Willie York is a peoria classic and an American hero.

  • He had a Teepee set up behind the Warner Homes back in the day. He use to be out there with all the dealers. We use to smoke blunts and talk to him, that crazy muhfucka kept us laughin. Babe Bruh aka Willie York

  • Did some days with him in the County

    Didn't recognize him at first without the paint but he truly is a gem! He told me a story then walked away and I was stunned for like an hour! He is Deep! Good person Tho Big Ups to Baby Bra!

  • he went to a nursing home in Galesburg for 5months haha he told me and i got a pic with him.. hes a very down to earth man i like him

  • ftw willie. live long and spread the insanity...

  • Well, at least he has people that care for him in Peoria. I think this is a sad case of a young man that saw and experienced too much in Viet Nam and it just blew his mind away. Truthfully, there are men like this in lots of cities but Willy is fortunate to have people that do care about him, whereas many of those other guys like him don't have anyone to care for them.

  • Great work!!! I enjoyed watching. Thanks!!!

  • Great doc Nick. Willie is a Peoria classic.

  • Wow This brought back memories. I have great memories of Peoria and Willie at the Blues Festival!

  • oh fuck i hate Peoria. There is no where worse then Peoria. No jobs, its gross

  • @oldirty818 okay and the rest of the world is clean

  • Seeing this reminds me why I'm so glad I moved away from Peoria...its a shithole!

  • good work on the documentary. loved it.

  • When my daughter and myself would be down town, she''d be looking to see if she saw him, wondering where "The Man of the Mountain" is.

  • I would love to have some of his artwork

  • Comment removed

  • I moved out of peoria but when I go back and go downtown, i love seein him with a crowd around him of quiet people just listening to him talk.
