Take a deep breath. We are at the half way point of the 8th annual Buffalo Infringement Festival, and if you want to make it to Sunday's closing ceremonies, then you need a day like today, especially after the blistering and exhausting opening weekend. With a bit less on the schedule today, choosing where to go, what to see may be a bit easier. A lack in quantity does not mean a lack in quality though. Here are my picks for the best bets of Day 6.
Slyboots
Buffalo's best new venue (350 Ellicot) hosts one of Buffalo's most bizarre yet great new bands. Originally forming in Fredonia, Well Worn Boot look like the family from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre if they picked up some instruments and formed a band. Alt country meets horror, with costumes thrown in for good measure, Well Worn Boot are one of those bands that need to be seen. Slyboots Drumming Ensemble and the experimental Jezkova will also play. Music runs from 8:00pm - 11:00pm.
Bourbon & Coffee
Continuing their infringement marathon run, beat poetry outfit Bourbon & Coffee will offer another performance down at El Museo (91 Allen) early this evening at 7:15pm, led by Aircraft drummer Ian Belknap's spoken word and a pleasing wind section.
Filigrees Tuesday Film Tripout
One of the more unique offerings of the day, fans of Alicia in Wonderland, would be wise to stop by Filigrees (1121 Elmwood Ave) to check director Jordan Bianchi's take on the famous tea party, based on directorTim Burton's vision of the scene. Other shorts include Dreams, a man's struggle between fantasy and reality, and at work, a look at an artist and his work space. Films run from 12:30pm - 5:00pm.
Electronic Music Night at the Bend
This has been an especially good infringement for fans of electronic music and tonight the fest offers another night at the Bend (256 Allen). Full lineup of acts can be seen here, along with most of their soundcloud pages. Music starts at 9:00pm and runs to close.
As always, if my suggestions don't fit your fancy, you may check out all of Day 6's offerings at the Buffalo Infringement website here. Happy infringing.
