Here are the Entries for the Western Challenge. To avoid the situation of having only one choice in a category I have done away with them for this challenge. Everybody has two votes to use however you like. Voting ends on 29th of February.

Hi. Here is my challenge entry:
Ok, i wrote this a few weeks back.
It's me on my [ sub-standard :D ] Ritmeuller acoustic miced into the desk.
There is some backing from me on the Epi Explorer thru a Cube 60. [ First time I ever double tracked anything! ] We left the doors open and my brother smacked a tambourine.
Oh.....incorporating one agitated Western Diamondback Rattlesnake!

[u][b]Noon In Los Hovos[/b][/u]
It was a scorching day in Los Hovos
The sun taking dead aim on the town
Windows were closed and the shutters drawn
The townsfolk knew what was going down
Fixing his gaze down the main road
He was a stranger to this land
Friendless in this godforsaken place
That he don't understand
Noon would be the hour
And the hour was drawing near
When he'd face this man, Peppito
Whom the townsfolk seemed to revere
But everybody knew Peppito
He was lightning fast with a gun
His six shooter shoots six bullets
But he usually needs only one
It was a good day for a duel
And this stranger couldn't leave too soon
He'd been strutting on Peppito's turf
But that would all change at noon
Noon would be the hour
And the hour was drawing near
When he'd face this man, Peppito
Whom the townsfolk seemed to revere
Since he'd been a boy, he had been paying his dues
Carrying buckets of water up the hill
He had been waxing on, he had been waxing off
Diligently honing his skill
The Katana was his only friend
Which he was ready to wield again
Many others had fallen at his blade
And today would be simply the same
Noon would be the hour
And the hour was drawing near
When he'd face this man, Peppito
Whom the townsfolk seemed to revere
Cautious eyes peeking through the shutters
As the combatants stood ready for the bout
When the clock tower signalled the hour
A single shot rang out
The stranger slumped where he stood
His abandoned sword catching the sunlight
And Peppito spoke
"Mi Amigo you drew a knife in a gunfight"
