For my 100th post and being originally from Buffalo I thought this would be the perfect topic to post in. As much as I would love to go with my father and see the hip for one last time I just don't seem it happening. The band playing back to back nights in the states after opting not to in canada just doesn't make sense. Also this would months after even playing one show. Imagine Gord having to perform for 3 hrs back to back nights after not playing in close to 3 months. By the last date of the tour he seemed spent. I will selfishly admit that when the summer tour was announced and no Buffalo date came up I was pretty let down. After seeing the Summer tour via periscope and CTV I can honestly say that the band has given me enough and they don't have anything left to prove. If the band plays Buffalo I will do my best to be there but if they don't it is totally understandable and shouldn't be held against them. Also for what it's worth a very good friend of mine works for Time Warner/ YNN news in Buffalo and he asked people within the Key Bank Center if this show was booked and he was told "nothing has been worked out for 2016" So if the band were to do Buffalo Artpark in the winter would be out of the question and the town ballroom is too small. Where would they play? Riveria Theatre? That place would sell out in seconds. I just don't see it happening.
