Snorty Horse

Please don’t take this the wrong way, and I’m sure that most of you who were at the Shooter show would agree that watching Ted Russell Kamp on stage (Shooter’s bass player) would give whoever was at the show an uncontrollable urge to watch porn. That guy gives new meaning to Dirk Diggler. Talk about gettin’ your groove on…and I’m not talkin’ about the nasty kinky porn, I mean good old fashioned hard core F’n. Can’t spell out bad words ‘cause so many of you have filters…but you can probably smell what I’m steppin’ in. Come on guys, admit it, I bet the parking lot seen more bumper than a tow truck that night! May have even produced one of those snorty horse babies. I think the bar is up to 6 successful conceptions in the last two years, and that’s just what I know about. Now don’t get the wrong idea, these are all couples that were actually trying to have a baby, and nothing worked, except a wild night at the horse. Maybe there’s something in Stag beer that turns those little guys into super sperm. Any how; if your tryin’ to have a kid, might try the backseat thing in the Snorty Horse parking lot…if your not wanting a kid… um… uh… well, might just come prepared, ‘cause we don’t have a condom machine in the bathroom.

Also…this is kind of cool, GO magazine, which is a local entertainment magazine that goes out about every two weeks wrote an article about my articles. It’s in a section called the hot list and reads as follows, “HOT NEWSLETTER YOU HAVE TO SUBSCRIBE TO: Steve Greene’s hilarious missives from snortyhorse.com.” I’ll take that as a complement! If you guys don’t care, next time you foreword one of my newsletter’s to your buddies, might leave a note in there for them to send me a random email at steve@snortyhorse.com and that will automatically put them on my list.

THIS WEEK AT THE HORSE!!!

WED. OCT. 3rd: COLE, CODY and HUTCH with the ever infamous NOT SO SPECIAL DRINK SPECIAL!!! It’s been several weeks since these guys played here on a Wednesday and I told Cole that I was ready for a Cole, Cody, and Hutch fix, and I think Cole said it best when he said “I think the world is ready!!!” $3 to get in and really, really cheap beer.

THUR. OCT. 4th: The VISITENT!!! Ever seen a Boland tune sang in a hardcore metal band? ‘cause that’s what your gonna get! The Snorty Horse crew really digs these guys, probably ‘cause they’re a bunch of metal freaks at heart and this is more like a night off for us. Hopefully you will enjoy the entertainment we have provided for this evening and HAPPY MOSHPITTING!!! $5

FRI. OCT. 5th: THE MIKE McCLURE BAND with AUSTIN ALLSUP!!! Yes, the rumor is true about Austin making the trip with McClure. What’s cool about this show is I have no idea how it’s gonna work because McClure and Allsup are also working on a “side project” that’s kind of a punk grunge kind of deal. I can really see this being very cool. Don’t know if their going to go through with it, but we can always ask.
In the unofficial pole of album most listened to by other artist would have to be McClure’s newest album “FOAM.” Best album I’ve heard in a long, long time. If you don’t have it, buy it, come to the show and get it, I believe Hasting’s carries it, so go pick one up, down load it, whatever it takes because you guys will absolutely love this album. The only thing better is seeing it live. McClure doesn’t tour near as much as he used to, just ‘cause he is becoming more popular as a producer and spends a great deal of time in the studio, so take this rare opportunity to check out a McClure/Allsup show. $8.

SAT. OCT. 6th: SNORTY HORSE 2 YEAR ANNIVERSARY WITH THE JOHN D. HALE BAND, MATT STELL and JARED HICKS!!! Yup. 2 years and a lot of gray hairs later. I thought about getting all emotional on this section of the newsletter, but let’s save it for Saturday night. I believe it’s time for me to do a speech. Probably won’t have a camel to fight for air time with this go round. Yes, I said camel. And yes, a camel did take part in our one year anniversary last year for those of you that missed it. Many of you have been askin’ me, “What do you have planned for the 2 year party?” I usually respond by saying something like, “The best times of my life has always been unplanned.” Not that is has anything to do with getting a tattoo on stage, or a “goat exchange”, whatever that might be. I would tell you that it’s definantly going to be worth the price of admission, which is 8 bucks. Also, the guys I have playing above were not just drawn out of a hat, or was whoever was available that date… these are individuals who have been with me since the doors opened back in Oct. of ’05. They have seen the ups and downs and have been the “backbone” of the bar since our existence. Doesn’t mean your going to get a “professional show” ‘cause we’re getting’ wasted!!! Come do a shot with me…and my mom, she’s supposed to bring a big cake.
