Kansas CIty – Buzzard Beach

Of all the nights for Matt to leave his camera at home, I’ve got to regret this very memorable night.
We walked to the bar closest to our hotel which was the chav-iest place you can imagine — America’s Pub. They patted Matt down and then told us there was a cover. [...]

Wichita, KS – Old Town

If the 70’s are new to you, come to Wichita, KS!

We walked the entire Old town before settling on Old Chicago.
This picture of our waitress Aimee does not do justice to the talent of midwestern tanning salons … pure orange goodness!

Then we headed down to the Pump House.

There was a cover band playing some solid [...]

Guero’s in Austin, TX

I’ve been to Guero’s a couple times before … I’d have to say it’s probably some of the best tex-mex I’ve ever had … Matt popped his Guero’s cherry — some shots of our food follow.

Have the queso, don’t ask questions. Just eat it fast.

Austin’s Chupacabra

We stumbled into the (la?) Chupacabra for some tex mex and man, had a great meal and a great bartender … fantastic.
Matt had the burrito …

I had the West Texas enchiladas …

Shared the awesome pulled-pork stuffed jalapeno poppers …

And this is Michael cheersing with Fernet … best service we’ve had on the road trip thus [...]

Burning Brown Man #2

We’re simple guys … we’ve got simple needs. BBQ, beer, girls, and … burning shit on camera.
We spent a day up at Buchanan Lake near Tow, TX, trying to get one shot … first there’s a vid of the early part of our setup:

This is a test shot of the scale-model skeleton [...]

Austin’s Jackalope

We spent some time in downtown Austin and returned to the Jackalope Bar three times, partly because everything else downtown is douchy and partly because Kristie Bell ain’t shit. Oh, inside jokes, we love ‘em.

The brown trash in me cannot help from ordering Buffalo Chicken Tenders anytime they are on the menu.

This waitress [...]

BBQ 4: Willy Ray’s in Beaumont, TX

You know, for a barbecue tour, we’re not actually eating that much barbecue … today is day 5 and we’ve only had 4 barbecue meals … partly because I had to have some Cajun and Creole food in NOLA, but also because our colons can only handle so much.
Anyway, we stopped at Willy Ray’s … [...]

New Orleans – Night 1

It was a second visit for both of us to Pat O’Briens in New Orleans …

Humidity fogged Matt’s lens … Voodoo fountain – fire and water.

Pat O’Brien’s is famous for its Hurricane … a fruity concoction of rum, passion fruit, grenadine, lemon and lime … You’ll never catch me outside of NOLA with one of [...]

No Oil Yet… Perhaps the last swimmer at Pensacola Beach

Matt went for a swim when we checked out Pensacola … I can’t get into how fucked up the situation is …
It looks like the oil’s gonna hit tomorrow …

BBQ 3: Pineapple Willy’s

Last night, in Charleston, I almost kept up with Matt’s seemingly endless capacity for barbecue. Alas, tonight, I was defeated and had to go with the fried chicken basket … I’m blaming it on the 30oz margarita. Anyway, Pineapple Willy’s produced some good ribs, meat melting off the bone, but the sauce was lacking [...]
