	CityBeat: Last Barrelhouse Ad
	February 23, 2005

	This is the last ad for the last Ass Ponys show at the Barrelhouse Brewing Company that never happened. The show was scheduled for March 6, 2005, but the venue suddenly closed after this ad appeared. Assheads vary in their opinions of Barrelhouse, but Ass Ponys provided many fine shows there. It shall be missed. *Ad contributed by Jim Merkl
