Buffalo Live! Music Podcast Events CalendarJuly 2008 |
|||
| Musical events that I recommend. No big arena shows, no $75 tickets. No Top 40. No Boy-bands. No Divas. No Rap. No phoney Country acts. Just a good time. Many shows are free or low-cost. Some are outdoor shows or festivals. A lot might be bands you never heard of. Keep an open mind and enjoy. Click the links for times, places and more information. Dates on this calendar are collected from artist emails, artist and venue web sites, newspaper listings, posters, flyers, and anywhere else I come across them. Accuracy is only as good as the input I get. Whenever possible, I provide links to verify times and directions. I update this page several times a day, please check back often. If you have a date you would like listed on this calendar, please send me the information at If you have a mail list for your band or club, please add me to it. (Western New York only, please.) Events are listed in the order added. To get your gigs at the top, send me information early! Click on the date to popout the day's schedule! |
