JayceLand's Weekly Rochester Events #99: End of Hurricanes
|
So now Thanksgiving is over and we're into the Christmas rush all tripped out on tryptophan. It's almost too late for online shopping...yeesh! Where does the year go. As I'm sure you all want to buy me things, I've loaded up my Wish List at Amazon.com. I was so happy that on the November 28 episode of the Daily Show on Comedy Central did a segment on why BooBerry was available in only a couple cities in America. Stephen Colbert hosted the segment and interviewed Taymie Behrens who said she once drove 2,600 miles with six boxes of BooBerry. While I commend her determination, I've found BooBerry to be available within 500 miles of Rochester, and even closer to New York. Among the things they mentioned was the description of "Boo" with his "trademark bow-tie and nipple piercings," a fact I hadn't really considered. |

If you have the desire to go out tonight, pickin's are slim. Tonight at Monty's Krown (875 Monroe Ave.) is Sanduleak starting around 10:30. Sorry again, but I don't know what they're like. Salsa Lessons return to Tapas One Seventy Seven (177 Saint Paul St.) tonight at 9. |

Dinner as always at
California Rollin'
at
Village Gate Square
(274 N. Goodman St.)
This week's specials, straight from the mailing list's mouth are:
It should be a slow week because it's also First Friday's at The Memorial Art Gallery (500 University Ave., near Goodman St.) with the bands Eleven Foot Seven and Gregory Paul from 5 to 8. Tonight's best bet is the CD Release party for 5Head's new CD, Casa Del Fuego. It's still the best bet despite being at the ever anti-social Milestones (170 East Ave.) starting around 10. I got to hear most of the CD when Steve brought it to the Krown and it sounded great. Of course all the songs are very familiar from having heard them live. If you're not into that, the groove-rock band Deep Banana Blackout will be at Water Street Music Hall (204 N. Water St.) Cabaret is here this weekend with the performance tonight at 8 at Geva (75 Woodbury Blvd.) Karaoke with Sugar Bear at Boston Brew Company (251 Exchange Blvd.) |

The big event tonight is at
California Rollin'
at
Village Gate Square
(274 N. Goodman St.)
from 6:30 to 9:30.
Barry and Maria will teach you how
to make three different roll
styles: outside-in (traditional); inside-out (modern); and hand rolls
with a variety of cooked and raw ingredients.
Only trouble is it's $55 without
alcohol and $65 with alcohol which if you think of it
as a class, it's cheap, but as a meal it's expensive.
Trivia Quiz continues at The Old Toad (277 Alexander St.) |

the extended peppermint mine ending.
Amazon.com gives me money if you buy things through this link, but for music, movies, and stuff, why not go to Record Archive, The Bop Shop, Lakeshore, or House of Guitars instead? You buy optimizations from GIF Wizard, I get some for free.
