HELL POP’S-A-POPPIN’

Brutus returned to Shiley Acres, WV to co-host The Hell Pop Tour 2016 with In This Moment, Hellyeah, Shaman’s Harvest, Sunflower Dead, Bleeding Back and Silence the Mind. It was his first trip back to the area since a Hellyeah stop there back in 2014. Major props to the crew at 101.5 Bob Rocks for bringing LB in for the show. Thanks also to Rob Fortenberry Photography for capturing images of Lou on and offstage. Finally, love to the music fans who showed up and set the record for the biggest show ever in the venue’s history.

ME AND BILL MURRAY

Lou Brutus has released “Me and Bill Murray,” the true-to-life musical tale of a chance meeting in New York City with Bill Murray. It leads to a night of madness, wisdom, and french fry pilfering.

Of the song LB says, “Meeting Bill Murray is like seeing a UFO. If you tell people about what happened, they’ll think you’re a crackpot. Bill lets you know to expect that, so it’s all good. I just want to tell the story. Whether or not listeners believe it happened to me or not is totally up to them. It just doesn’t matter, it just doesn’t matter, it just doesn’t matter.”

Tell your own Bill Murray story online using #MeAndBillMurray. The best will receive cue cards from the video shoot.

MAN DOWN

After spending his life searching for the perfect cheeseburger, Brutus has changed his dietary habits from the ground up and actually started eating healthy. The change in diet has led to a 55lb weight loss.

“I wasn’t going to mention it to anyone, but when I started running into people, they thought I was ill,” said Brutus as he crammed a fork full of organic lettuce into his mouth while simultaneously eyeing an ice cream sundae across the restaurant.

Lou said there is no particular secret of such a large weight loss in just three months. “Lots of water. Lots of fresh veggies and eight ounces of protein a day. No sugar, no carbs, no dairy.”

The rest of his comments were inaudibile due to the volume of his growling stomach.
