Friday Night Bash

[Guest Edgy DC]

Friday nights are the primo nights at Coca-Cola Field in Buffalo, because that's the night that you can take in Bisons brand baseball with a great band beforehands. I know, right. The concert first? But there are fireworks after the game!

Anyhow, the typo-riddled press release not only tells me that it's the BEST night of the week for Bisons baseball, but that fridaynightbash! is a registered trademark.

So, if you're in Buffalo and catch a game some Friday, these are the fine bands you get to see. Your job today is to tell me in what genre these varied acts perform.

I hate it when fully clothed gents cover bare naked ladies.
I mean, what's the point?

[Guest Edgy DC]

April 10 A-List - pop covers
Not quite

April 24 Large Marvin - blues
Nope

May 1 The Boogie Monsters - rock
Rock covers, correct

July 17 Pirate Dreams - Caribbean music, like Jimmy Buffett
Jimmy Buffett covers. Come bring the kiddies to listent to the sweet breezy sounds of adult alcohol saturation. Good job.

They give a more specific sub-genre description.

Hilarious , JCL , the big guy on the right in the they might be Tom Stahl & The Dangerfields picture looks so out of place with the guitar , he's just so huge looking the guitar looks miniature .

[Guest Edgy DC]

Painful.

Here we go:

April 10 A-List Rock Covers .

April 24 Large Marvin Rock Covers .

May 1 The Boogie Monsters Um, Rock Covers.

May 8 Tom Stahl & The Dangerfields In the interest of meeting the wide variety of tastes among the Bison faithful, TS & the DFs offer... Rock Covers.

May 15 All Jack'd Up Bon Jovi Covers

May 22 Papa and MamaRoot 70s Covers ('cuz i'ts time for a cool change).

June 12 TOAST! Rock/Party Covers (I'm going to go ahead and assume this is the same as "Rock Covers" but they're not too homophobic to include "Love Shack" in their playlist.

July 17 Pirate Dreams Jimmy Buffet Covers (Because you hear a steel drum and drink some Jamaican rum and you just know you're in Buffalo.)

July 31 Joe and the Schmoes Party Band Covers (I suspect they can somehow play "Louie Louie four times during a 40-minute set.)

Aug. 14 Fully Clothed Gents Bare Naked Ladies Covers (Fun with Antonyms!)

Aug. 21 Naughty Dawg Band 70s, 80s, 90s, Rock Covers (We won't touch the '50s, '60s, and aughts. I'm sorry. Look elsewhere.)

Let's make Tom Stahl just "rock," Jack'd Up "hair metal rock," Papa "50s/60s rock," and the Schmoes "90's alternative rock."

Yeah, that isn't bad. "You're Still Standing There" the Steve Earle/Lucinda Williams duet probably the most obscure song.

[Farmer Ted]

Large Marvin. Hehe.

[DocTee]

The guy on the far right of Large Marvin looks like a poor man's Brad Pitt.
