H-Beam's RedGorilla Austin, TX Extraveganza

Those Lovable H-Beam characters headed down to Austin, Tx in March of 2008 to play the RedGorilla Music Fest. They've presented footage of the trip in a three-part rockumentary . Here's part one.

Part one includes footage of the road-trip down to Austin along with performances of Cumerland Hop and The Tasty plight of Portillo the Hotdog.

Lyrics:
CUMBERLAND HOP
The glorious green
The beloved blue
You see the best
In what the world can do
Better roll through Tennessee

One day so stormy
The next burning skin
Just wait ten minutes
I bet it's gonna change again
Better roll through Tennessee

T-E-Double N-E
Double S-E-E I believe is
Fine by me

I feel a Cumberland Hop
Off a little rocky top might satisfy
All my needs

You want one party jack
Just bring two jars
This one here burns
While the other jar pours
Better roll through Tennessee

So you come on down
And you bet me
The rowdiest crowd
That you ever did see
Better roll through Tennessee

T-E-Double N-E
Double S-E-E I believe is
Fine by me


PORTILLO
When I was a pup my momma would say
Gonna be the top dog of the USA
With breath like an onion patch and heat on my meat
I'm man's best friend when it comes time to eat

So the day did come when they wrapped me up
Sprinkled salt 'o celery on this ole pup
But wait a minute momma are those teeth I see
They feed me to the dogs is this the plight of me

Dot that mustard up with that nap in your hand
And think of what you've done you nasty man
I thought you said I was your best friend in town
If I still had a face it would furnish a frown

Is that all I get from the best in the land
You know the shmo that ate me didn't even use both his hands
So what do you remember except that flame in your chest
It's your evil heart that's burning as I start to digest

Dog gone delicious
Delicious but the dog's all gone
Poor, poor Portillo
Portillo is my top dog
