 Wallflower (people) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In social situations, a wallflower is a slang term used to describe shy or unpopular individuals who do not socialize or participate in activities at social events.
It was originally used to refer to women, and only in the context of dances; more recently the term has been expanded to include men and other social gatherings.
In gay culture wallflower refers to a usually younger individual, who is gay, and others assume so, yet because of their naivety and inexperience they are not yet 'aware' or have not yet accepted it in their own mind.

Wallflower Systems, Inc. of San Jose is now shipping the Wallflower, a beautifully crafted, 14 inch (diagonal measurement) electronic photo frame that uses WiFi connectivity and a hard drive to load, store and display thousands of high-quality images.
Loading the Wallflower with 50-odd pictures (a small fraction of its actual capacity) from my computer and configuring it via the wireless interface was reasonably easy, although there were a few ambiguous places in the procedure that might trip up a non-computer user.
Wallflower digital picture frames are handcrafted and come in a variety of finishes, ranging from light maple to dark cherry and fl and are priced from $799-$999, depending on style, finish, and options.

 The Confessions of Jakob Dylan - A Wallflower's Coming Out
Richling, 30, is a high school friend of Jakob's who became a Wallflower during the last bout of roadwork for the first album; he had previously studied film at Boston University and worked as a production assistant for the TV show Pee Wee's Playhouse.
Slater and the other Wallflowers all speak highly of Jakob's work ethic and his extreme reluctance, from the beginning, to trade on his family connections.
On the Wallflowers' first tours, the Dylan freaks came out of the woodwork, hippie loons with twenty-page letters for Jakob to pass on to his dad.

Rebel, Sweetheart -- the fifth album from The Wallflowers and their first with producer Brendan O'Brien (Pearl Jam, Bruce Springsteen) -- is the welcome re-introduction to a rock and roll band with a renewed sense of purpose.
On Rebel, Sweetheart, The Wallflowers and O'Brien were clearly doing something right, and the result is the most focused and accomplished album of their career.
That's how I always envisioned The Wallflowers from the very beginning:  As a band that was going to matter for a long time.

Charlie, the wallflower of the title, goes through a veritable bath of bathos in his 10th grade year, 1991.
Charlie is always completely honest, whether he is describing his first "beer" party where he witnessed a girl being raped by her boyfriend, or explaining masturbation and his excitement for this newfound "activity." Charlie is a wallflower who observes people and feels very deeply for the experiences occuring around him.
I, too, felt moved after reading The Perks of Being a Wallflower, and agree that almost any adolescent would be able to connect somehow to Charlie, the book's freshman protagonist.

A wallflower is essentially stock in which there is little or no investor interest.
If it is part of a stock group in which few stocks are doing well, its problem is likely one tied to industry fundamentals such as declining demand, foreign competition, or the like.
Betting on one specific wallflower is speculative without good understanding of its environment.

The rest of the songs may sound like Jakob Dylan, but (and being a Wallflowers fan, this isn't easy to say) Jakob's vocal timing on many of the songs is off, the guitar riffs are less than catchy, and the Wallflowers changed their organ/piano player for Jaffe after this album for good reason.
The Wallflowers known to most of their fans make crisp, consise pop-rock songs, but this early incarnation of the band had a much more freewheeling, loose approach, with little apparent regard for radio-play or the trends of the day.
The Wallflowers have always had a retro/classic rock sound, but on the later albums this is filtered through a modern-rock sensibility.
