Established in 1968 by some guy named "Lefty," Chapel Hill's oldest bar, The Cave, turns 40 this year. Having reached middle age, she now qualifies for Social Security.  the Cave's current owner, "Mr. Mouse," has decided to buy a new sports cooler with the first check.
     "All those younger bars have fancy coolers. Ours has been chuggin' away since day one, it's time to give her a rest.  We've got to keep those sexy new beers cold and a new sports cooler's the ticket."
     In addition to purchasing a new cooler, the Cave also plans on hosting special events to celebrate their 40 years of beers.  Hypothetically, these events will include an awards party, an alumni party for past employees, a couple of patron parties for our loyal clientele, a foot-rubbing contest, a dead celebrity party, and a nude 10K run to benefit the whales.
     The Cave plans on posting these events on their schedule as soon as the dates are confirmed.

     The Cave is videotaping a public access TV event on May 18th.  Ormon Grimsby, host of Monster Creature Feature, the Triangle's B-rated, late-night, classic horror flick spectacular, will be hosting this Zombie Party featuring:  Killer Filler, The Tremors, Melissa Swingle, Dexter Romweber, and the marching band director of Alsvid (the lost moon of Mercury), Billy Sugarfix.
     The event will cost $5.  Show starts 8:00 P.M.  Zombies get in free, with the best Zombie earning a cameo on Monster Creature Feature.
     Come out and support public television!

     Ever wondered if musicians can spell?  Of course you have!  Well,  CD Alley and the Cave are sponsoring this public television event to find out.  Contestant will be asked to spell music related words such as "G-U-I-T-A-R", "B-E-A-T-L-E-S", or "Z-A-M-F-I-R".
     Those (few) musicians who can in fact spell will be awarded a small prize.  Keep an eye on the schedule for dates and times.
