Molaskey's Pub welcomes Jackdog Snook to our Bonfire Beach stage Monday November 3rd at 7:00 pm SLT. Jackdog is a talented acoustic guitar performer and great singer songwriter from Australia. And we have more than just Jackdog tonight because right after his set is the running of the Melbourne Cup, Australia's major annual thoroughbred horse race. Billed as "The race that stops a nation," (a holiday in the state of Victoria, Australia) it is for three-year-olds and over, and covers a distance of 3,200 metres. It is generally regarded as the most prestigious "two-mile" handicap in the world. In 1998 Jackdog wrote the song "Run For Glory" which was played at the track before the running of the race that year. Tonight he is going to play the song -- and then share the broadcast of this FAMOUS horse race with us at Molaskey's! Come early and catch Skinny Shepherd at 6:00. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Wichi/86/210/21
