Perhaps you're familiar with public access broadcasting and its noble intentions for communal enrichment. Or perhaps you just thought about Wayne's World and instead wondered why he wore such a devastatingly tight t-shirt. But if you look you'll see the wealth of opportunity provided for by a national airwave designated specifically for our local ambitions. Buffalo's favorite daughter, Ani DiFranco, is a prime example of broadcast worthy television with a local …

Wondering how people perceiving your work, your words, your motivations. Until the curtain closes and there is an eruption of applause, you’re on pins and needles; a sign of a good show is the audience feeling that anticipation as well.

I LOVE this on Wednesday nights! We've had many great times sharing a bottle of wine and classic movies. What a fantastic idea and a great way to enjoy the city on a beautiful patio with friends... a nice alternative to the typical drunken night out at the bars (as much as we love those too!). Thanks, Bacchus, for offering up another season.

I saw Blade Runner there the other night. Comfortable patio with top notch wait staff! Also, there are seats in front for those only having drinks. Dinner tables for the with hunger. See you there again!

Gotta say I have been a fan of this since last year. This is a great idea and the other couples my girlfriend and I go with have a great time. It is most certainly worth checking out.
