Honky if You Like Pussy
Jeff Pinkus and Co. hook up with their Nashville brethren and Rev. Horton Heat for a butt rockin' tour of the Western and Midwestern U.S.

Joltin' Jeff Pinkus dropped me a line the other day. "I don't bother you much, but today is the exception. Honky is about to go on a six-week tour with Nashville Pussy [after said band plays Emo's this Saturday] and Reverend Horton Heat through the Western U.S., Canada (British Columbia to Toronto), and back down through the Midwest July 3-August 18, after which we will hopefully hook up with Dixie Witch for more shows to get home. On June 28, we'll be playing the Red Eyed Fly for a sendoff show. They've offered a Lone Star beer and Jim Beam special in our honor. The show will be early 'cause it's outside. We will be joined by Hognose and Broken Teeth. The show will feature the Austin debut of our touring drummer Greg Main of Houston drumming fame. Lance [Farley] can't go on the tour with us 'cause he's getting a nose job, breast implants, and he's planning on having a heart attack during the next few weeks. A good turnout might help us out, funds are low and we don't want to dip into our Swiss bank account." It probably won't come to that Jeff, but in case you need exchange rates, talk to Mark Rubin...
