buffaBLOG is the buffalo music blog.  We cover all the best local music the nickle city has to offer in addition to coverage of any national acts touring through out our fair city. So it only makes sense that we would like a blog that not just covers music in buffalo but also Rochester, Syracuse, Ithaca, Utica and pretty much all of WNY. That's pretty much the mission statement of Skipster. To us, they aren't competition, they are our friends, helping inform us on everything cool happening down the road.  For that same reason we like the Toronto blog Panic Manual.  Toronto is a world class super city that has great music almost every day. So much music in fact its hard for us to keep up whats cool going down across the border. Thankfully Panic manual helps us know when we should take a drive up north to catch something sweet.
