From Texas To Oklahoma...
Texas changed us, y'all. Changed us for the better! There's been so much going on, that I made a big mistake yesterday. I forgot to tell y'all about a certain particular man.
See, in Dallas, Conan didn't make it to the theater for soundcheck. Instead, he sent another man in his place A REAL man. A MAN'S man. A man... Named SLIM CHESTERSHUCKS:
Slim wasn't part of the show that night, and he wasn't part of the soundcheck that day. Oh no. Slim was done just for the benefit of the tour crew! (Kudos to Scott Cronick for hooking Conan up with a great look). As soon as "Slim" started warming up, our video man Skip put up a billboard to give ol' Chestershucks the welcome that he properly deserved:
Yes... That's a big blue horse's ass in the background (from a bit in the Denver show). It. Was. HILARIOUS. Also, Conan - er, Slim - kept spitting out his cigarettes when they got too soggy and kept throwing them at people (me)! We couldn't stop laughing... And the best part is that Conan actually really took to the cowboy boots, and now he won't take them off. Seriously. I think he's a cowboy convert! Like I said: Texas has changed us. ;) As for how Texas changed me... Well, I bought a lasso and we've been having some fun with it! Look for a video in the very near future! 'Night y'all. See you in Oklahoma...

Had to see a men’s doctor today. Why? Let’s just say "Newt is no longer surging in the polls."

Agreed!
HIGH RES PIC OF SLIM. NOW. PLEASE. SERIOUSLY. THANKS.
Woah there, I wouldn't wanna mess with that guy! He looks far too tough. Seriously though, the getup is awesome.
So many thoughts rattling around my brain....."Brokeback Mountain" jokes, comments about a horse's ass.... But I am very tired and am not sure what would be funny and what would be crude. Not that I mind being either (or both) but I think I'll leave it at - awesome look, awesome cowboy name, awesomeness. Texas changed y'all and I'll bet you guys changed Texas a bit, too.....
Oh.......my. I think the temperature in this room just rose by about 60 degrees.
チェエストオシャアクズ!
Don't lie you said "sucks" on purpose! j/k
I can't spell - Chestershucks. It's 1 am and I've been studying Japanese all night. Chestershucks.
Texas is lucky to catch a glimpse of the mysterious Slim Chestersucks... Tell Slim he should come back to Oregon sometime! There are plenty of Oregonians who think they live in Texas...it's quite sad.
Woah. It's getting hot in here. :fans herself:
You're welcome back anytime in Texas. Had a great time at the Dallas show! I miss y'all. Seriously so much love in that auditorium.
I love it. I see future show character.
I love how the hair sticks out from under the hat. LMAO :D
Bley please tell me you have a pic of Slim in the boots???? Thats just too much awesome to pass up! haha
Crap. This AWESOME Andy Kaufman-like alter-ego of Conan's just might make my idea for the 'Original Conan Character Competition' unoriginal. Oh well, so worth it. ;)
OMG! I'm crying of so much happiness! See you in 13 ish hours!!!!! :D
Hahaha.. what a great thing to wake up to! Conan can definitely rock a cowboy hat! But I'm sorry that "Slim" liked throwing soggy cigs at you. ;)
Bwahahaha! New favorite Conan picture! Can't wait to see you guys in KC!
Methinks that we've just seen one of the new characters that'll be popping up on TBS. :)
I hope that Slim brushed his teeth vigorously after having soggy cigs in his mouth. Ick.
You guys are getting loopy, and I love it. America's missed yall.
...wait - is that a steel-string that I see?
Boy, we need to get you a nylon string if you're gonna play good 'n'proper-like.
*shakes head*
I know a nice little place in Green Bay, WI where I found my blues harp. I'll meet you there. Or, hell, I'll just give you mine. We can't have Chestershucks without a nylon string.
OMG that's so funny! Thanks for coming to SMU! Come back again, we had an awesome time! :)
SLIM CHESTERSHUCKS!!! hahahahaha! I love you!
Was he in character as well as in costume?
Third!
I second that nomination for best blog in the history of blogging!
*Sobs* My comment was, once again, eaten. Here it goes again...
I'd like to nominate this blog for the best blog in the history of blogging. Slim Chestershucks? That's so fantastic. :D I'm in love! I think maybe I smell a new character for the TBS show! I really hope someone got a video of this... I can picture it in my head but I need proof that he exists!
Thanks again for a hilarious post to brighten up my day, Bley. :) See you all soon! xoxo
HAHAHAHA I was looking forward to what you had planned for today and it did NOT disappoint! :D I'm picturing all the soggy full cigarette "butts" on the floor at your feet, and spit stains on your shirt. :P Haha sorry Bley. But I like what Texas did to y'all. (I also propose that "y'all" become Standard American English; it's so useful!) Aaaand I'm excited to see this lasso-ing business! :D
Also if I see some fiddling with a video camera onstage at Radio City, I will assume it is Awesome Video Tom and I will scream "HI!" ;)
Can you thank Cronick for me? Cause, despite not being "Slim" for the sound check, Conan still looked really hot. I'm not much for cowboys, despite being a born and bred Texan, but yum. Thank you Cronick, I owe you one. Safe travels Bley, and I look forward to hearing about many more of y'alls hi-jinks.

Marboro man without the smoke... I think Slim is on to something. And that something is awesomeness.
Do I see a new TBS character? :)
We are SO EXCITED in Kansas City and can't wait for you all to get here!!!
Aww! He did that just to keep the crew amused? How sweet! I love it!
This is awesome, he looks so good.
So cool. He should be a part of the show on TBS!
Awesome! Slim Chestershucks is the best!
Well, if Conan can't bring over Conando, maybe Slim can take his place.
DO want! *grabby hands*
I'm sorry, you were expecting something coherent?
Bley, if Conan lights even one cigarette, please, PLEASE kick him in the balls. Say it was from me. I wouldn't want you to get in too much trouble.
um. this made me go into cardiac arrest from laughter.
Once again.....Haaawwwt
TBS TBS TBS!!!!!!
Please, please, please bring Slim Chestershucks to the new show on TBS! I laughed for a solid ten minutes while reading this about him!
Slim Chestershucks is officially the single-greatest country-boy ever. Johnny Cash ain't got nothing on Slim
