[FUNK] Tiger Chung Lee is not a professional wrestler or a less than professional Street Fighter. Nope, they’re a funk band from Youngstown, New York. And they’re pretty impressive, especially when all 11 of them are up there jamming on an epic groove. There’ll sure be plenty of epic grooves, and maybe some funky interludes too, when Tiger Chung Lee comes to Nietzsche’s for a show this Saturday, January 6 with support from Rhubarb.
Happy New Year, everybody! How are you feeling now that President Trump is golfing working feverishly to bring jobs back and lift up the economy after eight years of the Indo-Kenyan Muslim Communist?

Single: “Feels Better” by The Eaves Recommended if you like: The National, Spoon, The Shins |
It took three full hours on Sunday afternoon, but the Buffalo Bills finally produced the moment of gut-wrenching anxiety their fans have come to expect—anticipate, even, over the past two decades.
A Miami onside kick had just bounced off Bills linebacker Preston Brown, quite possibly the last person, other than a 300-pound lineman or a very small child, you would expect to see on what is known as the “hands team.”
The Dolphins, who had cut Buffalo’s game-long lead to eight points, would get a chance to wipe it out completely.
Police Report:
In 2006, This Day and Age, an indie rock band—though these days they might be remembered by some as an emo band—from Buffalo, New York abruptly broke up. For those paying attention at the time, This Day and Age seemed to be kind of the head of the local music scene—they were one of a few local bands that had recently signed to a fairly new but quickly rising record label, the Warner Brothers Records imprint, One Eleven Records and they had just finished a series of tours with the popular emo bands like Mae and The Spill Canvas.
If you’re so inclined, you can regard Joe Wright’s Darkest Hour as an unintended complement to Christopher Nolan’s recent epic Dunkirk. Both portray events in the same brief period at the beginning of the Second World War, May and early June of 1940, when Great Britain faced the capture or destruction of most of its army on the coast of northern France by the rapidly advancing German forces. Nolan’s film portrays the troops’ near-miraculous rescue in a fashion that’s both sweeping and personal.

In last week’s installment of Body Buzz, I tried to convince you to get a turntable and start listening to LPs, either for the first time, or again, as the case may be. I spoke of the irritation-inducing ills inherent to digital audio (largely due to jitter), and argued that listening to an all analog path, from the recording studio to your speakers, was the only way to bypass digital all together and enter the warm and wonderful world of analog sound. |
[NEW YEARS EVE] If you didn’t catch them over the summer at the first ever Cobblestone Live festival, then here’s that always elusive second chance. Brooklyn-based jam jazz trio Moon Hooch returns to Buffalo for a special New Years eve show at Buffalo Ironworks on Sunday, December 31. They’ll be joined by Gnomedad and Honeycomb.
[HOLIDAY] Who says Infringement only comes once a year? Well, technically that’s accurate, but you can have a hearty taste of the annual festivities with this lineup at Nietzsche’s on Saturday, December 30, featuring the resurrection (you rang?) of everyone’s favorite fecophiliac army, Anal Pudding!
