Tonight: PUNK N' TOTS Mid-Winter Beach Party



Buffalo is notorious for its confusing weather, and weather confused citizens.  While visiting Californians may still be shivering in their long underwear tonight, Broadway Joe's will be soaking in the glorious 46 degree weather with a beach party, complete with punk n' tots.

Mayday! will be performing, and their heavy hitting B-52's esque track "Blood Bath" could be this event's party anthem. With such delicious song titles as "Shark Sandwich" and "Illegal Alien vs. Child Predator," they're sure to give an electrifying performance, so you best wear a swimsuit made of rubber.

The reverb drenched tones of Aaron and the Burrs will propel attendees they ride the waves and surf the crowd. Embrace the ocean of thrashing instrumental surf rock.

The Televisionaries out of Rochester will round off the set with dirty, gritty surf punk.

Start the weekend tonight with music to break down sandcastles to.  Admission is a cheap five bucks, and cheaper if you show up in beachwear attire and don't skimp on the sun lotion.

Doors at 9PM, Surf's up at 10.








Tonight: The Fourth Annual Buffalo Decency Rally


It's that time of year again. The Adam Mickiewicz Polish Library and Dramatic Circle, otherwise known as the Polish Library (612 Fillmore Ave.), will be hosting the fourth Annual Buffalo Decency Rally, showcasing the best in local punk rock, hardcore and indie, on two separate floors. The absolute cream of the crop in terms of creativity, power, heart, and attitude will be on display and I am way psyched. If the past few years are any indication, this will be one memorable and wild night. Plus it's cheap ($5) so you have no reason not to go.

Tonight: Polish Library Benefit Show



The Polish Library (612 Fillmore Ave) is one of Buffalo's most treasured cultural centers. Located on the east side of Buffalo, the Adam Mickiewicz Polish Library and Dramatic Circle, as it is officially known, is recognized as one of the first theaters in the city, in addition to hosting social club events and having a pretty awesome beer selection to boot. In more recent times, it has served as a music venue to some of Buffalo's best punk and hardcore bands. The last few years have seen some amazing shows pass through the Library's worn doors, including a couple of the infamous Decency Rallies.

Recently the library purchased the lot next door and are looking to expand in the near future. Tonight's benefit show aims to raise funds for this cause. You have some great bands from the punk, hardcore and indie scene including everybodies favorite surf-punk act, Mayday!, lovers of dissonant, Sonorous Gale, party punks, the Narcs, Water Torture, Dream Journal and Animal Lover. For $5, that's a steal. Come down, buy some beers and support a good cause. Shows at 7.
