Nothing Finer Than Some Keuka Wine’r
Sunday, March 7th, 2010Mini wine tours are always fun, and the one we took yesterday was cool for a couple reasons. We’d never done Keuka Lake, so it was exciting to go to wineries that we’ve never visited before. Secondly, going with Scott and his friend Dave was a blast because A) they’re a blast, B) they know [...]
Erie Brewing Drake’s Crude Oatmeal Stout
Thursday, February 25th, 2010One of my birthday beers!
02/23/2010 Cold, Nonpoint, Day Of Fire, Edison, Augustine (Syracuse, NY @ Westcott Theatre)
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010I rolled in from work, and wandered into the line-less venue as Augustine was finishing up. I only saw about half of the last song, so I have no idea how they were. Edison was next up, and they’re a pretty straight-up rock band from New Jersey (Edison, NJ, surprised? Not me!) the NYC/CT area. [...]
02/11/2010 Five Finger Death Punch, Shadows Fall, God Forbid (Buffalo, NY @ Town Ballroom)
Friday, February 12th, 2010[2 Cents was also on the bill, but I didn't catch them.]
Phill and I made our way down the 90 to the Ballroom, and walked as the stage was just getting set for God Forbid. We hung back on the top level to take in their half-hour set, which was probably the best place for [...]
02/01/2010 Shinedown, Puddle of Mudd, Skillet (Rochester, NY @ Main Street Armory)
Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010[Like A Storm was also on the bill, but I didn't get there in time to catch them.]
This show was largely a “game-time” decision for me, as I was on the fence about going. Shinedown had played this same venue 11 months prior, and I wasn’t sure I’d see anything different. With Tiffany going to [...]
Saranac Rye IPA
Monday, January 11th, 2010From the Saranac sampler pack.
The Computer Upgrade
Wednesday, January 6th, 2010It’s gonna get geeky up in here…
It’s been quite awhile since a full-fledged computer upgrade. The last one was around 2004, when I finally moved from a PII-450 to a nifty 1.8Ghz AthlonXP2500+ that Dad got me for my birthday. I’ve put a bunch of different parts in that rig over the years, more RAM, [...]
Cold, But I’m Still Here
Monday, January 4th, 2010(With apologies to Evans Blue…)
So the online presence has suffered a bit while we recovered from the holidays. I worked Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, all of which were relatively slow days (I mean, see the monkey? He was chill.). 8 hours of holiday pay on New Years Eve, during the day, was nice. Not like [...]
