By Seamus Gallivan It’s nice to see the blues in the local spotlight recently, even if it’s under the circumstances of its lone local programming on WBFO being under threat on account of the station’s sale to public radio-television o...

This 1962 Ford Ranchero sits in a Grand Island driveway wearing Nevada tags. Been there for some time now. The plates could explain the very faded red paint job — it gets pretty hot out there in the desert. Rancheros started their life in 1957 on Ford’s full-sized chassis, switching to the compact Falcon in [...]

In tonight’s AFC Divisional game, who should you root for?
On one side, you have the absolutely loathsome New England Patriots. That contemptible bunch of cheaters (let’s not ever forget Spygate) led by their pretty-boy quarterback and miserable prick of a coach. And don’t forget their racist douchebag frontrunning fans (Note: I know not all Boston fans are racists. Or douchebags. But it’s fun to generalize.)
And the other side, you have Tim Tebow and the Broncos. But according to the media, it’s just TIM TEBOW! What a leader! He’s just a winner! What a great guy!
So as neutral fans, who the heck do we root for?
It’s the Broncos. No question. Here’s why:

I can't believe that The Showplace Theater is still sitting empty. The last great show that I saw there was The Damned, and I still think back to how incredible the ambiance was. We were right up close to the stage, in what was one of the more intimate live music venues in the city. Not to say that the word 'intimate' is one that many people would readily choose when describing The Showplace, but when bands played there it was an extremely personal setting. There was no place like it around. Not to say that this was the most lavish club around - it certainly wasn't. But that's what made it so great. You could get away with things in The Showplace that you couldn't get away with anywhere else. It was like being at somebody's house... rather their oversized garage. Whenever we saw a band play at The Showplace we knew we were in for a lot of fun.

Lately, the Erie County Democratic Party’s executive committee has selected candidates in situations like this, though in the past [...]
