it’s been great it’s nice it’s great to
take our peeps out on tours yeah and uh
everyone’s just raving about the weather
so anyway we’re happy falls here yeah
absolutely and we’re really happy to
talk about
montezuma’s tavern montezuma’s tavern so
first uh yeah first a word about
montezuma so evidently the guy they
named prescott after and
why he pronounces that that way is a
whole other story we’ll tell that some
other time but anyway he was a historian
and he uh wrote about how the local
people in the prescott area
were all related to the aztecs which
would include montezuma
and historical figures like cortez
completely and utterly wrong just
totally wrong absolutely wrong no no
relation whatsoever he tried i guess he
tried he tried he thought he was making
the right connection yeah so montezuma’s
tavern is on montezuma amongst them
which is a big street here right right
close to cortez yeah right around the
the square yeah yeah so all around the
square you’ll find cortez martizuma
what’s the other streets no one knows we
don’t know but anyway yeah a lot of the
india uh uh aztec names you’ll find red
white square street’s uh named and
that’s why yeah we’re not stupid we’re
just historically that’s right so all
right dr bro yeah there you go with your
elections
uh
people will argue about whether it is
part of whiskey row or not
whiskey row is clearly it starts with st
michael’s bistro
uh it’s it’s one block long and it
fronts uh across the street from the
courthouse correct uh but for years
they’ve been trying to get people to
start thinking about this the next just
cross that little side street and
there’s a whole nother whole little
block yeah of really beautiful buildings
and uh
some good restaurants down there too
yeah of which one of these is
montezuma’s tavern
so uh we went there we had some good
friends don and jan shout out to you don
and jan yeah uh they’re in florida right
now
we hate when they go back to florida but
yeah we were out with a bunch of friends
uh doing music and we went in the
monsoons tavern and there and there they
were they were back in town back in
business they are they love whiskey row
and all the music and for all of you
people who are uh love live music and
your live music aficionados
whiskey row is the place to go yeah
montezuma’s tavern set we’ve got a
really nice venue
uh you go inside and there’s an internal
courtyard
so you’re actually sitting outside it’s
really quite pleasant very nice and uh
it have music there a really neat
looking bar cool yeah a good selection
of drinks and everything so we stumbled
in there with some other friends and we
found our old friends and we all joined
up at a big table and had a great
evening enjoying the the stars and uh
listening to some live music and a
little bit of dancing
and good drinks
so montezuma’s tavern is a great little
place to kind of duck in
and enjoy that live music yeah and you
know they have some crowds but it’s not
you know it’s all fun it’s not like the
crush of humanity yeah which we hate
yeah you know the older you get can’t
take that crush of humanity
this is just right yeah
this is called haunted kitchen or
something that chronicles the building
has several establishments in it there’s
another bar upstairs we’ll talk about
some other time yeah uh there’s a
restaurant you can order in food but
montezuma’s tavern is about drinking and
music and live music
under the stars
in a really cute courtyard that kind of
reminds me a little bit of a new orleans
of course yeah it has a has a pat
o’brien’s kind of feeling it does i
think that’s why we connected with yeah
yeah but anyway so if you’re a
honky-tonk kind of person and you just
