He always wanted to live like Gauguin. Not that he could paint anything other than a paint-by-numbers horse and jockey-it's just that he always wanted to live amongst joyous, half-dressed native women who would look up to him as a god-like fire master. He knew it was possible. He had seen the movies.
In Tales On Tap Billy suddenly finds himself the bartender/front man for his shady uncles, operating a tavern on Chicago's North Side, and must grow up mentally and socially through the experiences and influence of his regular clientele.
