  1. Well Dead Mans Party isn't going to happen this Saturday. But fear not! We have a gig Halloween Eve at Bella's Parkside Tavern in Kenmore, and we'll be good to go with DMP then!
  2. Over/Under of number of threads on how the Bills need to trade for D'Earnest Johnson in the next week?
  3. Something that I love that's super quick and easy. One can of chick peas, drained. Add a tablespoon of nutritional yeast, and a teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Put everything in a container, and shake aggressively, then eat. So good.
  4. One time at the old American Sports Bar and Grill on Transit Road, Petr Svoboda came in, and sat down at the bar right next to me and a friend of mine. We didn't ask for any photos or autographs. Just talked to him and his buddy like regular guys. He ended up buying all of us as many wings as we wanted to eat and a few pitchers of beer. He was just so happy to be out of Montreal and in Buffalo where he could go out and be himself.
  5. We "got our ass kicked" by those 2 teams by a total of 10 points. The definition doesn't equate to the actual outcome.
  6. Don't worry @Chandler#81, I got ya covered.
  7. My ex and daughter bought tickets to see Oingo Boingo former members Halloween Night in San Diego. Show sold out. Then it was announced that Danny will be joining the band for that show.
  8. I have Geddy Lee's Big Beautiful Book of Bass, where he showcases the 350 basses in his collection. His favorite basses are the ones who have the finish worn down on the body, and the frets slightly worn, because those types of basses have been used in bars and other gigs, and each one of those basses has a story unique to that instrument. I only have 2 basses, and my 5 string has a very special story to it. It was originally owned by a good friend of mine. Knew Steve for about 17 years before he passed away of a heart attack at 50. Steve's sister gave all of his basses to the top local bassist in Buffalo, Jim Wynne who was best friends with Steve. Jim is also my bass instructor. So one day Jim asked me if I ever considered playing a 5 string. I said I would definitely consider it, and in next weeks lesson Jim had Steve's 5 string all ready for me to take home. Jim has Steve's Rickenbacker 4001, but to this day Jim's Rickenbacker and my 5 string are still considered to be "Steve's bass".
  9. Very, very cool! Sad to hear that the blonde ripper was destroyed in the hurricane. I'd like to start collecting basses. The only "vintage" bass I would buy would be a 1963 Fender Jazz in Lake Placid Blue. Otherwise, I would go with more exotic basses like a Gus Bass, carbon fibre construction.
  10. I wasn't familiar with Freebo, but after a quick search, was very impressed that he's one of those studio musicians that everyone works with, because he's that good! Also touring with Bonnie Raitt is a great thing as well.
  11. Danny Elfman is supremely talented
  12. We have been rehearsing Dead Mans Party. It's a distinct possibility for this Saturday. It's just a really hard song. One of our band motto's is "F**k Danny Elfman".
  13. I usually go right up to my wife. That's the only lady I want to love my waving bass
  14. https://www.facebook.com/events/367533008491868/?ref=newsfeed Band name is Boomerang! We're a 6 piece band playing 80's First Wave with 90's and today's dance rock. Yes, I go into the crowd and dance whilst playing my bass.

  16. What I took away is the final paragraph. Spot on. The NFL season is a marathon, not a sprint. As the Bills head off into their bye week, rest assured this painful loss will be felt across the organization and it will undoubtedly stoke the fire for a postseason run.
  17. Wasn't Hart signed by Tennessee? I saw it on TBD
  18. There's also this
  19. Actually, I have a plan. Remember, I'm a huge Rush fan and there's a number just north of 2000 that holds significance.
  20. Don't be so sure. Remember, we're One Buffalo
  21. WDYWUTD? TIH
