My only visit to the Hop Inn in South Buffalo was for a Yes Yes/Well Worn Boot show this past winter. The place is a total dive, but the small, but its intimate feel only added to the bizarre, cult-like figure that is Michael Ersing of Yes Yes, and anyone who has seen the Boot knows that the closer you are to their inappropriate frontman, Plainsman, the better chance of getting hit with one of his many phallic stage pieces....
Anyway, tonight's Wooden Waves show shouldn't be quite as weird, but maybe there is something in the water at the Hop that I don't know about. The analog loving surf punk outfit who I have written about to exhaustion as being Buffalo's most underrated band, will be celebrating this first gig at the bar with two sets this evening. A new album from them is coming some time this summer, so look for new and old tunes as the band claims on the the event page to be playing everything they know.
Music kicks off tonight at the Hop (317 Hopkins Street) at 10pm and the show is free of charge, so use that extra cash for the bar. No credit cards allowed after all.
