R.I.P. Lou Reed

This is in memory of Lou Reed. He likely never came close to taking the stage at the renowned Spenard Honky Tonk, The Brazen Husky. But he did mention Alaska in the Velvet Underground song 'Stephanie Says". The lyric, "It's so cold in Alaska", while a metaphor for something else entirely, is also certainly true as a simple matter of fact. For that he deserves his own poster. We've given so much to so many, for so much less. A souvenir of an imaginary gig is the least we could do.

"Brazen Husky" On a Roll. That's Right, Another Cancellation!

Notice of performance cancellation: The management of The Brazen Husky announced that Christian Grindcore band Howled Be Thy Name cancelled their December performance. The Norwegian rockers did so after learning a previous headliner at the Spenard night spot had been carried off to Hell by Satan in the middle of his set. Blues legend Jellyfish Jones has not been seen or heard from since. The band sent out a press release noting that their contract was clear about allowing them to back out of performances at venues where Lucifer had previously appeared. "As a Christian Band, we believe it would be wrong to follow Satan, even onstage." Said the band's lead singer, who, ironically goes only by his first name, Thor. "We haven't had a gig in ages."

Yet ANOTHER Performance Cancelled!

NOTICE OF CONCERT CANCELLATION- Once again the management of the Brazen Husky reports they are forced to cancel a planned performance. The reason: shortly after the local nightclub signed the well-known "Boy Band" Christopher and the Robins for a November engagement, Throbheart Magazine released the result of their damning two-year investigation of the band. According to their report, the Robins are not a boy band at all, their ages range from the early thirties to the mid-forties. "They could have only gotten away with this in the age of Photoshop and studio gimmickry" said Throbheart editor Candy Asche. "It's one more indictment of a literally bankrupt industry" There was no question about going on with the show after the Throbheart bombshell. "Imagine finding out that everyone in your favorite Hair-Metal band was bald" scoffed Asche, "Or not actually metal." Management of the Brazen Husky refused to speak to this reporter, but did sob into the phone for attribution.
