The Gypsy Parlor has become well established as a colorful venue in it's few months with the Buffalo music scene, so perhaps now would be a good time to take a rest from the wonderfully garish decor with a
"Black & White" party. Of course that isn't the point at all, given that the outrageous music line-up is rash with colorful rascals, madmen and vagabonds.
All of whom will party harder than you, but hey, who doesn't like a challenge?
The rules are simple; Dress in white, or dress in black, (Or cow-print, in the case of Well Worn Boot.) Honestly, that's probably the only rule outside of 'drink, dance, and tip your bartenders.' Keep with the theme folks.
Your delightful entertainment for the evening will be provided by:
Mr. Boneless is a band full of right gentlemen and play what occasionally sounds like Americana/Rockabilly on speed. They can cool their jets and serenade you with a ditty, or bring out the bigger guns and shake the place up like an Etch a Sketch. If you miss them this time around (why would you do that?) or feel like collecting Boneless tickets, they will also be performing during the mayhem that will be
buffaBLOG's Fourth Birthday Party. You'll currently find them earnestly waiting to rock your face off, passing the time with a game of
'Go Fish.'
Aside from being a staple in any good Buffalonian's liquid diet, Bourbon and Coffee is also a jazzy, improvisational spoken word group. Allow their words to free you from your mortal pain and human limitations. I once heard them cover the X-Files theme and things got downright bizarre.
Well Worn Boot will rile things up by siphoning your women and courting your booze. There's some fine musicianship behind their bawdy outlandish attitude, and it's a treat to watch a band comprised of characters from a farmer's peyote nightmare. Prepare to drop your jaw and probably a lot of other things.
Right out of Rochester (or perhaps
outer space) Routine Involvements is a duo that plays fuzzy, chugging, garage rock. Equal parts sensitive and snarky, they bring passion to the music and infuse it with rhythm that could only be powered by alien technology.
The curtain is pulled back at 9PM, and they'll be patting you down for five bucks at the door, so make sure you can pay the man or you may never see your friends again.
