The infamous Hairy Bear, described on the Bear's drink menu as capable of making patrons "want to climb walls," consists of six shots of three different liquors. Though the original idea was conceptualized nearly 20 years ago, general manager Jim Reef says nobody really ordered it until five years ago. \n"It started out as a joke," Reef says. "It's so intense; it's kind of a nasty drink. It started out as six shots in a 12-ounce mug with some grenadine, sour mix and orange juice for flavor. Now it's the signature drink, thanks to (former Bear's owner) Ray McConn. We used to sell 300 to 400 Long Islands a night; now it's all Hairy Bears."\nReefs cautions that servers are technically not allowed to serve more than one Hairy Bear to any consumer (but as this writer knows, that's often not strictly adhered to) -- an instance Reef attributes to the layout of the bar. \n"It's so hard -- you can get it from the bar, from your server, or change sections and order it elsewhere," Reef says. "It's hard to monitor"
CRAZY HORSE FOOD AND DRINK EMPORIUM\n214 W. FIFTH STREET\nThey're back. Latin dance parties and local bands plan to rock Second Story for the second time around, as the bar opens after a short hiatus. Owner Phil Rhoade says the bar is available for benefits and special parties for anyone and everyoneys Second Story has gone back to the basic things that worked for their crowd in the past, like booking local ban,. Rhoade says. Crowd demographics, he says, vary depending on the act. From older jazz and blues with older crowds to new-age punk, the audience depends on the featured music. But locals are known to inhabit the place as well as students when occasionally drawn by a notorious DJ.
There's never been a better time to be a part of the crew from the dirty South. The artists and albums coming out of the area are leading the rap charts. Representing the ATL, the YoungBloodZ Drankin' Patnaz goes down as smooth as your favorite shot. \nIn the spirit of the dirty South, J Bo and Sean Paul have brought an album that will get parties going and make listeners roll down their windows so everyone can hear the crunk beats. \nIn "Damn!," fellow rappers Lil' Jon and the Eastside Boyz help put the same sweet flavor into the song that they put into "Get Low" with the Ying Yang Twins. The song is already a popular hit at the clubs and radio stations nationwide.\nThe title song "Drankin' Patnaz" will remind most listeners of their best friend, their bud or the one that will throw back a beer in the middle of the afternoon with them just because they've had a bad day. The music is good and fitting for an album with so many alcohol references.\nThe YoungBloodz are the perfect addition to an already growing dirty south hip-hop dynasty. Drankin' Patnaz is the perfect album to do some drankin' to this fall. Collaborations with Lil' Jon, Killer Mike and other dirty South rap kings make the album one smooth listen.
