What Now?

I probably should have started off this blog with a declaration of intent and purpose, but because I was still buzzing at a high level over Cults at Babeville all I could muster was some babbling about Cults. Fair warning: that will happen every now and again. But today I have a little more perspective, and can now say that this blog will in no way be a comprehensive review of what's going on in Buffalo or the larger world of music. I won't be getting to every "cool" show in town (although I do try to get to the shows that I have to get to), and I'm not going to be trolling the growing Buffalo scene to check in on every band that starts up in this fine city. I have a job. I work most mornings. And I like sleep. But I read NME, Fader, and Pitchfork, and assiduously keep on eye on who's playing Buffalo (and who should be playing Buffalo), and this blog is going to be focused on that, the bands from Buffalo that I like (Bird Day, Love Scenes, Son of the Sun), and my own ludicrous (and ever expanding) cd collection.

OK. I am glad that's out of the way.
