It's not unusual for cigar-chomping politicians to trek around Texas in search of an audience and votes – but few are as colorful or outspoken as
Kinky Friedman.
The iconic Texas musician, author, entrepreneur and candidate for Texas agriculture commissioner will make a personal appearance at the historic Conroe Sparkle Event Hall, located at 101 Metcalf St. in downtown Conroe, at 6:30 p.m. Feb. 27.
The event, sponsored by the Friends of Sparkle, features Friedman performing with his current band, reading from his latest book, "Heroes of a Texas Childhood," and stumping for votes.
"I think there’s a lot I can do for Texas," Friedman said. "I have a unique approach to promoting Texas products and can do a lot to grow the office."
