Eggstock: A Music and Exotic Chicken Festival in Split Hoof
Split Hoof is famous for Eggstock, a unique Music and Exotic Chicken Festival held at Swine Song Commune and sponsored by local businessman Cousin John. Aunt Minnie, a local resident, shared her excitement with Sweet Swine Scoop: “I can’t think of anything more thrilling than a festival that combines music and chickens. Cousin John is a genius!”
The Lip-Synchers Reunite in Horse Fly
In the mid-1980s, the Lip-Synchers took Horse Fly by storm until lead lip-syncher Buster Jones (The Big Porker) caused a split by demanding his girlfriend, Betty Thompson (Cooking it Up with Betty host), join the band. After a public fallout over Thompson's influence, Buster left for a solo career in Europe. The band eventually reunited for a benefit concert supporting Earl Silo’s presidential campaign. While Silo lost, he joined the band, and now the original Lip-Synchers perform in Horse Fly every October, with solo lip-syncing from Betty Thompson and Earl Silo!
