But hey, look out for that Whale Wall- Glenn dedicated it, so don't mess it up! |
Soooo, what direction do you want to head off in? We could drive on into L.A. and soak up the ambiance at McCabe's Guitar Shop and the Troubadour just for the historical thrill of it all, or maybe head on into the Rockies. Yeah... wanna go to Aspen?
We could shamble on over to the Jerome Bar, immortalized in the tune (I know you know this one!) Partytown, the place where all the musicians in the Roaring Fork Valley go seeking inebriation. Jimmy Buffett was positively drunk off his ass here the day he was first offered the chance to tour with the Eagles. And that set into motion a chain of events that would eventually see Jimmy become a Monstertone! Twice! Imagine to what greatness you may soar if you go get soaked at the J-Bar. Order the house specialty, the J-Rita. It's a tempting concoction of tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, and orange juice. Good for what ails ya!
Go ahead, have 'em page Hugh Gotteny. I just wanna see who turns up.
But while we're terrorizing this particular neighborhood, we have just gotta stop by the Woody Creek Tavern, right outside of town. In The Aspen Book, Diane Tegmeyer tells us that, "If you're looking for the Aspen of thirty years ago, here it is." Well, hell yeah, we're looking for precisely that Aspen! There are strings of pink pig lanterns hanging from the ceiling, awesome nachos and burgers, and a house drink called The Biff. Mind you, "biff" is also a verb. Aspire not to.
And if we take a reeeallly wrong turn when we pull out of the Woody Creek Tavern's parking lot, we could find ourselves cruising through the breathtaking Canadian Rockies. Hey, we're in Calgary! Excellent! That means we can swing by Glenn's places here!
So, how are we ever gonna find this place, anyhow? I mean, we're way up in the mountains!
We're gonna have to ask for directions . . . Let's ask this guy . . . |
HEY YOU! |
Hey, isn't that nice of them? They're going to lead the way . . . I guess if you're looking for a good time the best thing to do is follow a flock of horny old goats! |
Careening through the streets of Calgary, our next stop
is at at 3745 Memorial Drive, Glenn's Café and Memories Bar.
You can play pool or dance to the Top 40 music. It's a fun place. |
