- Tonight - At the Freeman Stage at Bayside - Lyle Lovett & His Acoustic Group, 8:00pm -10:00pm. TICKETS NOW ON SALE! Lyle Lovett was one of the most distinctive and original singer/songwriters to emerge during the ‘80s. Though he was initially labeled as a country singer, the tag never quite fit him. Lovett had more in common with ‘70s singer/songwriters like Guy Clark, Jesse Winchester, Randy Newman, and Townes Van Zandt, combining a talent for incisive, witty lyrical detail with an eclectic array of music, ranging from country and folk to big-band swing and traditional pop. Lovett’s literate, multi-layered songs stood out among the formulaic Nashville hit singles of the late ‘80s as well as the new traditionalists who were beginning to take over country music. Drawing from alternative country and rock fans, Lovett quickly built up a cult following which began to spill over into the mainstream with his second album, 1988’s Pontiac. In the summer of 1996, Lovett re-emerged with The Road to Ensenada, the first album since Pontiac to be dominated by country songs. In addition to performing well on the pop charts, where it entered at a career peak of number 24, The Road to Ensenada performed strongly on the country charts, entering at number four. Smile, a collection of songs recorded for various movie soundtracks, appeared in 2003, followed that same year by My Baby Don’t Tolerate on Lost Highway. The label also released It’s Not Big It’s Large in 2007 and Natural Forces in 2009. A holiday EP, Songs for the Season, appeared in 2011, and a couple of tracks from it ended up on Release Me, Lovett’s final album on his Curb Records contract, which appeared in 2012. Special Concert Event. Tickets will range from $35 to $75 per seat. This is an assigned seating event. THERE IS A 8 TICKET LIMIT PER HOUSEHOLD.www.lylelovett.com

Funny Poop
- A man walks into a hamburger shop and orders a regular meal. Later, the waitress brings his meal to him. He takes a bite out of it, and notices there's a small hair in the hamburger. He begins yelling frantically at the waitress, "Waitress, there's a hair in my hamburger! I demand to see what is going on!"
So, the waitress takes him back where the cook is and to his demise, he sees the cook take the meat patty and flatten it under his armpit. He says, "That's disgusting!" Then the waitress says, "You think that's disgusting you should see him make donuts."
- Three bulls heard the rancher was bringing another bull onto the ranch.
First Bull says "I've been here five years. I'm not giving this new bull any of my 100 cows".
Second Bull says "I've been here three years and have earned my right to 50 cows. I'm keeping all my cows".
Third Bull chimes in "I've only been here a year, and so far, you guys have only let me have 10 cows. I may not be as big as you fellows, but I'm keeping all 10 of my cows".
Just then an 18-wheeler pulls up in the pasture carrying the biggest bull they've ever seen. At 4,700 pounds, each step he takes strains the steel ramp.
First Bull nervously says "I think I can spare a few cows for our new friend".
Second Bull says "I actually have too many cows to take care of. I can spare a few. I'm certainly not looking for an argument".
They look over at the third bull and find him pawing the dirt, shaking his horns and snorting.
First Bull says "Son, don't be foolish! Let him have some of your cows and live to tell about it". Third Bull: "Hell, he can have all my cows. I'm just making sure he knows I'm a bull!"
