WHEN WILSON WENT ON THE LAM

In June 1978, Beach Boy Brian Wilson — without telling his wife or bandmates — decided to escape his life and hitchhike to Mexico.
He wound up in San Diego, according to Steven Gaines’s biography Heroes and Villains, which describes a confused pop-star millionaire wandering the city, “barefoot and unwashed.”
