[COMEDY] If you’re a fan of the E! network show Chelsea Lately, you know Cap. Cap, real name John Caparulo is a stand up comedian known for his “everyman” style, as evidenced by his appearances on specials like The Next Generation of Blue Collar.
[INDIE] A bunch of great psych rock and garage rock bands will set it up at the Waiting Room this Sunday, April 2.
[BENEFIT] Finally, an opportunity to put to good use those hours upon hours you spent playing Nintendo games as a kid (or if you’re like me, adult as well). NES vs MS is a benefit to raise money for the National MS Society.
[PUNK] Blues and punk don’t always go together—they’re genres of different generations—but Boss Hog make it work.
An anonymous designer called Mind Romes has created a pretty unique mash up of classic video gaming and classic hip hop. The project, Chronslevania, is a combination of the 1985 Nintendo game Castlevania, and Dr. Dre’s 1999 album, Chronic 2001.
[JAM] If you’re into fancy genre titles, I guess you could call Primate Fiasco “jamtronica”—a cross between a jam band and an electronica group.
[JAZZ] Hot Club might sound like the next big EDM party in Buffalo, but it’s actually a four-piece gypsy jazz band. Covering everything from Bach to Jimi Hendrix, the group can definitely still induce plenty of spontaneous dancing from their crowds.
