Honeycutt's Traveling Rodeo and Genuine Old Fashioned Medicine Show John Longbottom

Honeycutt's Traveling Rodeo and Genuine Old Fashioned Medicine Show is a retro-beat short story presenting a behind-the-scenes glimpse into a quirky modern-day traveling rodeo and medicine show. At times poignant, occasionally absurd, and often humorous, John Longbottom presents vignettes of this unusual crew of mismatched souls. Discover how twin sisters Abigail and Zelda came to run this ragged outfit. Meet the cross-eyed clown, Joe the Indian, and J. D. the musician, along with an assorted cast of zany carny performers. Listen in on their private conversations, learn who dislikes who and why, how they protect their own secrets, and how they all came together to work in this modern-day Wild West show.

About the Author

John Longbottom, originally from England, has spent most of his life as a musician, songwriter, performer, and entertainer who has played with a variety of bands. He has spent the last twenty-five years of his career as a successful solo performer touring in Europe and the East Coast of the USA. His somewhat irreverent sense of humor, reflected in his performances and writing, is born of those life experiences.

No retired and living in North Carolina, Longbottom was looking forward to a quite dotage when this muse came knocking at his door demanding to be heard. He has learned that when the muse calls, you'd better answer the door. For more information on John Longbottom, please visit johnlongbottom.net.
