The Buffalo Chip®, a longtime favorite of production companies looking to capture the authentic Sturgis experience, will once again be the centerpiece for 3 new one-hour TV specials airing on the Travel Channel.

“We are thrilled that the Travel Channel has once again chosen the Buffalo Chip as a key element of its new Sturgis Rally programs,” says Buffalo Chip owner Rod Woodruff. “The Chip has been featured in numerous international television series and specials over the years, but we expect these three shows from the Travel Channel will give a new perspective of the culture of the rally. They will also highlight the entertainment, activities and overall excitement that only takes place at the Buffalo Chip.”

2012 was the biggest year ever at the Buffalo Chip, with more campers and concert goers having enjoyed the Chip’s one-of-kind atmosphere and entertainment than ever before. 2013 looks like it will be another record-breaking year for the Sturgis Buffalo Chip’s 9 day and night music festival, with confirmations already announced from multi-platinum country star Toby Keith and the iconic rock band ZZ Top. More band announcements are expected soon. Go to www.BuffaloChip.Com or www.Facebook.com/SturgisBuffaloChip for all the latest Buffalo Chip news and information.

In case you've been living under a rock since the 70's you already know about ZZ Top's great Texas sound. The three amigos have been rocking out some gnarly, dirty blues for decades and this latests number feels like a well-work pair of chaps. Enjoy!

Funny anecdote, this is ZZ Top covering a rap song from the 90s. Who knew???

Wow, check out this outrageous new art print titled "Highway to Hell" from the mad creative mind of artist Larry Grossman! The setting is Vic's Bar on Highway 666 (in the Twilight Zone perhaps?), where bad-ass bikers and hot babes look on in astonishment as a crazed, hell-bound undead dude on a smokin’chopper blazes right past them …and in fact right out of the dang picture! Sized at 18"x24" and printed on the highest quality 100 lb. heavyweight paper, this amazingly detailed Lithographic Print (high-quality poster) is a must have for any serious bike freak or gear-head …and it's yours for only $30 (or $35 if you want it hand signed and dated in gold ink by the artist!). And get this, Larry can even create a custom version of this or any of his pictures featuring your bike or car for a few bucks more! You can buy this print and see all of Larry's great art on his cool website:www.retrovisions.com No computer? No problem – just order by phone: (818) 970-9128.
