From their early days at the Pink to tomorrow night's buffaBLOG Summer Party, DJs Stephen Pieroni and Sean Heidinger, aka Spooky Business, have come a long way. After winning Artvoice's "Buffalo's Best DJ Crew," the pair have increased their street-cred around the Queen City, including a memorable set at 2013 Taste of Buffalo. With roots planted all down Allen, the two started by playing the Pink on Tuesdays, collecting a mixed audience. From there, they went on to numerous showcases and openings at Hardware becoming, in my opinion, the unofficial DJs of the bar's Back Room.

Myself, I first encountered Spooky Business playing in a hot-as-balls living room at the birD day's house. The crowd was pressed in and dancing on each other as Stephen and Sean laid down a healthy beating of rap songs.

Spooky Business is all about crowd pleasing. They play to the mood and atmosphere of the room, seemingly always bringing  the energy UP! They're style reaches all ends of the spectrum, from Hip-Hop to House and everything in between. Check out their fresh flavor at the party tomorrow night beginning at 10pm and running all night long. While not a video of Spooky Business exclusively, the clip below is from that party I had originally seen them:

Ten years ago, Drive-Thru Records was on top of the world.  With huge releases from bands like Dashboard Confessional, New Found Glory, Something Corporate, and many more, Drive-Thru helped define the punk-pop and emo sound of the early to mid 2000's.  Though now mostly defunct, most of the kids who bought their records are now twenty-somethings in established bands of their own.

The Pink is hosting a Drive-Thru Records Happy Hour featuring hours of DTR hits.  Brett Mikoll of All Blondes Go to Heaven fame (whose band is surely influenced by at least a few of these bands) will be hosting.  He'll be spinning Drive-Thru bands from 6-11.  If you haven't heard "The Best of Me" by The Starting Line in a decade or that huge Hellogoodbye song that somehow went platinum, maybe it's worth your while to stop by.

Haven't made plans for Halloween yet? Still wondering what you're going to dress up as and what you're going to do this evening?

Well if you're still without a costume and have a penchant for dancing to some of the finest glam tracks of all time, then all you need to do is paint a lightning bolt across your face and get down to The Pink this evening.

From 11PM on, Shaken Stylus will be spinning glammed-out vinyl selections and leading a Halloween dance-fest that only The Pink can provide.

Even if you have one or multiple parties to attend, you can rest assured that The Pink will be there for you in your time of need when the Rubbermaid tote runs out of apples to bob for and the spiked apple cider fountains run dry.

It's The Pink, so it's a 21+ party... but I feel you probably knew that already.

Have a fun and responsible Halloween everyone, see you in November!

It's the last Wednesday of the month and, as with every last Wednesday of the month, the Audio Buffalo cast of podcasters gets together at the Pink for a little happy hour.  From 6:00pm to usually whenever, the crews from Buffalo Eats, Buffalo.com, In Pod Form, Craft Beer Talk, buffaBLOG, and others get together to awkwardly mix and mingle.  Come to join the awkwardness or just come for a cheap drink and a killer steak sandwich.  We will be there regardless.  See you then.
