 |   A little bit of everything, colored my own way. |
| So what's up everybody? Been a long time.... ... ... Sorry 'bout that. Life happens, ya know? This is gonna be a short and sweet update. Tomorrow night will entail a visit to the Italian Festival in the Hertel area of Buffalo. http://www.buffaloitalianfestival.com/ Please love up a little on that, and the 1/4 Italian that I am. The main reason we're going is because it's an event in the local area. I don't get out much, and since the winter cripples me, it's always good to get out. Especially on a weekend. But I have bigger ambitions.... The Italian Fest usually has some big, nationally known headliner for their music. In past years it's been Frank Sinatra Jr., or local artist-turned lounge act (and a very good one, at that) Frankie Scinta and his family band. This year, the sponsors decided they didn't want to pay big money for musical attractions. Usually, I'd be pissed...but then I found out that a fantastic local cover band is playing around dinner time  and we're definitely going.YOU NEED TO SEE THIS INTERLUDE FOR YOU TO GET THE NEXT PART: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jg8IJ7RN9ss This is the Strictly Hip doing their thing. When you see them, you can close your eyes and really believe you're at a Tragically Hip concert (all apologies to In Your Dirtiest Pants  , since she's Canadian and disapproves of the Tragically Hip).SECOND INTERLUDE, FOR YOUR VEIWING PLEASURE: If you're not familiar with the Hip, this is the same song... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEGyKECUh80 And don't tell me Gord Downie isn't one of the greatest improvisational showmen in the history of music in general, period. That said, he's in my top 5 of all-time greatest frontmen of all-time. But that's an entry for another time. I'll just drop another Tragically Hip favorite of mine on you and hope that Strictly Hip plays it tomorrow: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_RSJ6xuHbE That's your most lyrically poetic Canadian band, folks. VITAL STATS:  There's some creepers that inch my views up daily.  Out yourself, lest I take some poetic justice into my own hands! Better yet, don't... . My sunday got fun, and I can't wait for that... I could go into work stuff, but I won't. No need to right now.I'll just leave you and it with this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPJ2rcYQC88 Amazing how The Hip have evolved since the early 90's. Goodnight now!! I pledge to be more engaged to you all sooner than later. And in six months' time, you can call me a liar. Peace and love.... |
