The Tontons Set to Play Lebowski Bash

tontonsThe Tontons, one of Houston’s best kept secrets that is set to explode, are confirmed to play Houston’s Lebowski Bash and I’m sure the Dude would abide.

The Tontons described as ‘A reckless blend of rock and psychedelic blues has given birth to a new sound’ by SXSW will play an exciting set of original songs plus I am told by, a very reliable source, that there are some surprises in store for us achievers.

Check out their MySpace page. I know big things are in store for the Tontons, you can’t have that much talent that goes unchecked

Great news fellow achievers! Saint Arnold Brewing Company is your official Lebowski bash beer!

Saint Arnold, based in Houston, is Texas’ ‘Oldest Craft Brewery’ and we declare that it is pretty damn tasty no matter what occasion.

Seriously if you don’t know Saint Arnold beers then you aren’t doing it right.

If you still don’t know what Saint Arnold beer is I know what you’re saying ‘Is this some sort of catholic beer?’ Not necessarily. Saint Arnold was founded by Brock Wagner and Kevin Bartol in 1994 in Houston and named after Saint Arnold of Metz. Yes, he is the patron saint of beer and I don’t know about you but that makes me smile!

Lebowski Bash Featured on Lebowski Podcast

lebowski-podcast-thumbLast night I did a phone interview with the great Chalupa of Lebowski Podcast fame. We talked about the coming Lebowski bash, Tito’s Vodka, the amazing Bill Green and his wonderful Maude(one of which is hanging on my wall), the Kentucky Derby,  Vinyl Ranch and the fact that this party is totally FREE.

While you’re checking out the Lebowski Podcast site why not pick up some cool Lebowski Podcast Swag

Lebowski Bash Needs YOU

We like free just as much as you do but throwing a free does come with some costs and to help keep this party as free as possible we are looking to you to help out where you can.

Lebowski bash is looking for help with the following things;

  1. Volunteers: We will need volunteers to help with the setup and coordination of the party. We will also need volunteers to help with the serving of drinks. The good folks at Tito’s have happily agreed to help us out with supplying the vodka for the White Russians we will be serving and if you or anyone you know can help us with that let us know
  2. Sponsorship: This is a free party but we are always looking for sponsors to help carry load - and pass the savings on to you. If you or your company/organization can help out in anyway please let us know. As I mentioned there will be White Russians and so far we have ONE of the three ingredients so if you can help out with the other TWO(Kaluha and Cream) let us know
  3. Donations: We are always looking for various donations be they monetary or simply objects like garbage cans or Parquet flooring for a bowling lane. Whatever it is let us know and we can put it to use
  4. Spread the Word: We want to make this as successful as possible so let all of your friends know about our little shindig.

Whatever you can think of drop us a line here or at our other Non Lebowski site http://lowendtheory.net/contact/
