Double-Header @ Mohawk Place
Mohawk Place, 47 East Mohawk Street, Buffalo, 14203, 716.855.3931
The Mohawk Place is giving you two good reasons to get off the couch tonight -- two of Buffalo's favorite bands will be holding down the stage, Flatbed, and Johnny Nobody. If you want to get an early start on the evening, and like your rock twang-flavored, the sweet sounds of Flatbed (pictured) are sure to please. With the kind of long pedal steel riffs that make you think of driving down back country highways in a pickup truck in a cut-sleeve shirt, jeans and dusty boots, Flatbed has taken home the BMAs Best Americana band in both 2005 and 2006. Throw in a bit of psychedelic guitar, and the lifting vocals of the lovely Joelle, and you've got music made for dreaming. Doors open at 7 PM, $5 cover for this postion of the evening.
If you're not quite ready to go home to another video rental after that, stick around for young rock staples Johnny Nobody, bringing the gritty distortion pedal to make you do the devil's horns fist and rock nod. Starting at 11 PM, these boys will keep you up way too late with strong songs just made for a good time with some fun friends and a few beers to keep you warm. Doors open at 11 PM, $5.

Rock and Roll Theatre
French satire from the 1600's feels like falling asleep in high school english class. But classic French satire with a rock and roll band? That sounds better. We can thank Andy Liegl for this bold modernity on December 26th when his production of Such Foolish Affected Ladies opens at the Alt Theatre. The original play calls for violinists but this role has been liberally opened up to local band The Nepenthe.

A Souvenir From Alleyway Theatre
It’s funny how history seems to repeat itself. Florence Foster Jenkins was in the elite member of society, but terribly eccentric and utterly convinced that she was a great coloratura soprano – despite the fact that she couldn’t carry a tune for even a few notes. She even managed to hold a sold out concert, even though she couldn’t sing! Sound familiar? Remember William Hung?
Jenkins’ story happened over 50 years ago. She would hold annual recitals in the Ritz Carlton h … - Dec 18th 2008, 6:51am

New Magazine To Focus On The Local Art Scene
