• 6/2/02    -     Les Honky More Tonkies tore up yet another venue last night, this being the largest thus far.  AmSouth
                      Amphitheatre and it's near-capacity crowd was rocked from head to toe and all before the headliner
                      even took the stage.  While opening for Hank Williams, Jr. the boys made a big impression with their
                      bigger than life sound.
  

• 4/19/02  -    Check out the May/June issue of No Depression magazine for the most unintelligible record review
                      ever written, inspired by none other than the best rock 'n' roll band to ever cover an '80s country
                      music classic!
  

• 4/13/02  -    The first ever official LHMT T-shirt was unveiled tonight at The End.  Be sure to get your Honkimania
                      apparel when the boys come to your town.  Keep your eyes open for new merchandise coming soon!
  

• 3/2/02    -    Tonight was the long awaited CD release party and it lived up to all the wily expectations of Honkimaniacs
                      across the country (or Davidson Co. at least).  A good and drunken time was had by all.
  

• 2/27/02  -    The boys gave a little lesson in rockology to the patrons of Tower Records, Nashville, tonight while promoting
                      the new album, Greatest Hits.  In attendance was none other than Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top fame.  Already a
                      founding father of Southern rock, Mr. Gibbons was a rather easy convert to the Les Honky gospel of love.
  

• 2/15/02  -    After much anticipation and a few false starts, the long waited debut album from the greatest band to ever
                      grace a stage is finally here.  Greatest Hits can now be purchased directly from any member of
                      Les Honky More Tonkies.  Check back to the website soon for internet purchases or go to your favorite
                      local record store and pick up a copy.  If they don't carry it yet, just say "I want my LHMT!"  For added
                      effect, sing to the tune of Sting's vocal in the Dire Straits hit "Money For Nothing"; they'll be sure to get
                      the point.
  

• 2/9/02    -    The Les Honky boys tore up Knoxvegas once again last night.  The folks at Blue Cats got a nice surprise
                      from the band when they covered their entire debut album, Greatest Hits.  Unfortunately -- and due
                      to forces totally uncontrollable to LHMT -- the release of the album has again been delayed.  You can be
                      sure to find it in your favorite local record store or off the website before Monday, February 18th.  Be
                      ready because it's good enough to make you lose a couple bodily functions that you didn't even know
                      you had!
  

• 1/5/02     -    After a nice holiday break, the fellas ventured back to The Sutler for a rip-rockin' good time.     With the

                      Check back for more details!

• 10/19/01 -    With the help of a bunch of drunk, rowdy friends, Les Honky More Tonkies tore apart The Sutler once

                      that graced us with their presence.
