Rodeo Sites

The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo
The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo is a really amazing event. I've only played it once, when I rode my horse Thunderbolt in the arena. This is a rodeo event worth traveling to see, if you are a fanatic. This is their website.

The Fort Worth Stockshow and Rodeo
The Fort Worth Stockshow and Rodeo is one of the great Western events, firmly planted in tradition. There are some great cattle and horses, and other livestock found here, in this city that is deeply committed to carrying on the traditions of The American Cowboy.

The Calgary Stampede Web Site
The Calgary Stampede's official website. This is one of MMM's favorite rodeo events, because it's still presented outdoors, and it's still got the Western Spirit that is missing in so many overly commercial rodeos today.

Black Irish Band

The Black Irish Band, also known as the Hooligans of Jamestown, have a musical style that is as timeless as the rugged landscape of the west, a tribute to the people whose lives were spent building the world we now take for granted. The band has a large compliment of traditional maritime and railroad music, as well as ethnic tunes in their repertoire. They commonly play Irish, Italian, and American folk music with an assortment of original songs and traditional western ballads.The bands musical style captures the spirit of the immigrants of this land, the men and women who tamed the Wild West.

Wild West Shows

The Original Wild West Revue
Brian Downes produces the show and perhaps the most unique feature of the patriotic 2-hour presentation is the Original Wild West RevueTM notably because, not since the 1940s, has a major entertainer toured with such an aggregation of mounted western performers.
