How far would you go to see a good band?

Postby avcool4u » Tue Nov 22, 2005 9:18 am

Would you come all the way to Buffalo NY?
On a Wednesday Night?
November 30th?
At 8pm?

We like to think we're a good band, and a lot of our fans
think so too.

So, if you can make the drive, here's the scoop:

ROAR84 - New Wave Cover Band in Western New York
Wednesday November 30th
8pm Start.
Seven Bar & Cafe
4546 Clark St.
Hamburg (South of Buffalo, in the snow belt!)
NY 14075
No Cover
www.roar84.com for more info.

Thanks for reading this.
In April of 2001 I went from Buffalo Ny to
Salt Lake City Utah to see Alphaville.
Later!

I'm driving to Tunica, Mississippi to see Bonnie Raitt in February. (from St. Louis) George Marinelli (formerly of Bruce Hornsby and The Range) is a member of her band and invited me down to see the show, along with backstage passes. I was unable to attend the show they had here in St. Louis in October because I was out of town. I think it will be worth the 5 hour drive...

Yes! Alphaville actually visited Salt Lake City Utah in 2000, and then again in 2001 for an "unplugged" show. That was the one I saw. The 2000 show was part of a video that they put out which is totally amazing. The DVD is called Little America and is available through www.adifferentdrum.com
Alphaville is still making music, some of it far more incredible than their early stuff. They had a rough go of it with record labels (namely Warner) and became very detached form their american audience. They're still incredible, and here is their website:
www.alphaville.de
Everyone should check it out.
