Hurtin Burton

A Hurtin Burton is an alcoholic beverage that was first introduced in 2011, in Halifax, Canada. The drink must be consumed at a strip club. It is a straight shot of vodka, and a stripper would lean over the shot glass and fart directly on the vodka. Once this is completed, the shot is ready to drink.

I went to the strip club last night and drank 4 Hurtin Burtons!

cliff burton

Cliff Burton was the most amazingly talented bassist of all time. He often merged bass playing with electric guitar playing using a wah-wah pedal. Cliff was born in San Francisco on February 10, 1962 to Jan and Ray Burton. He grew a liking for The Misfits, Mexican food, and H.P. Lovecraft. He owned a green station wagon that he often drove around the bay area with friends in, with The Misfits blasting out the windows. Cliff was a cool, laid-back guy who didn't mind going out of his way to talk to his fans. He started out playing bass for bands such as Trauma and Agents of Misfortune, and was known for his headbanging and wild stage presence. Cliff was soon discovered by Metallica, and that was when he replaced Ron McGovney and got his own place in the band, but he would only join if Metallica moved to San Francisco, which they did. Cliff's greatest masterpieces are (Anesthesia)-Pulling Teeth, The Call of Ktulu, and Orion. His career with Metallica was going great, but tragedy came with his death during a tour bus accident on September 27th, 1986. The band was on their way to Denmark when the bus supposedly slipped on a patch of ice and turned onto its side beside the road. Lars Ulrich (drums) had broken a toe and Kirk Hammett (lead guitar) had a black eye, but worst of all, Cliff had apparently been thrown off of his bunk-bed and halfway out the window, and then the bus crushed him when it had turned over. The rest of the guys, who were having a hard time coping with the tragedy, were brought to a hotel until they returned back to America a couple days later. Cliff's ashes were spread at Maxwell Ranch, a ranch where he spent a lot of his time. In 1987, a documentary of performances, interviews, and footage of the guys just having a good time called Cliff 'em All was released as a tribute to Cliff. Metallica found a new bassist (Jason Newsted) and on their next album (...And Justice For All) is a song that Cliff had written called To Live is to Die that also includes some riffs that he had written as well. Cliff Burton will forever remain in the hearts of many as the greatest bassist of all time.

Rest in peace Cliff... I'll see ya on the other side.

Bortzy

A person with alcoholic tendencies. The bar is their church, never to be trusted alone with a bottle of tequila. If drunk, the person will yell inappropriate things in public such as “her pussy tastes so good!”. Likely to get fired from a job after a night of drunken disorderly conduct. Nevertheless, there is never a dull moment when interacting with a Bortzy. Guaranteed fun.

“Did you hear what happened to that Bortzy?”
“No”
“They downed a whole bottle of tequila, hijacked a parks and recreation ladder and got themselves arrested”

“Wow, well I’m not surprised, I’ve heard them have 3 other criminal charges pending”

James Burton

Simply one of the best guitarists ever, "Master of the Telecaster". Born in Louisiana in 1939, Burton got his start by playing in the house band of the Louisiana Hayride in Shreveport at the age of 14. Within his 50+ year career he has worked with everyone in the business including Ricky Nelson, Jerry Lee Lewis, Emmylou Harris, Merle Haggard, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and yes the King himself, Mr. Elvis Presley from '69 to his death in '77.
He is an absolute pioneer of rock, country, and blues guitar, developing chicken pickin' and being the first to use light gauge strings so he could do wild bends.
He is considered the "Guitar Heroe's Guitar Hero" and was Elvis' favorite guitar player.

"Did you hear that solo on Mystery Train?"
"Yeah, James Burton is friggin' ridiculous!"
