CoTW 97, 98 Pink Turns to Blue, Never Talking to You Again
Updated Sept. 14 2017: In an attempt to relate what Grant Hart meant to me, I pulled out these old blog posts. This was from February 2009: When Buffalo Tom first went on a tour, it was 1989 and it was in Europe. Until we got there, we couldn’t fully comprehend that there were people …

CoTW — (Let’s Just Call All of Them Number) 96
These old Christmas covers of relatively obscure but great songs are a lot of fun. Please consider downloading them for a great cause. After 25 years as a professional musician, I never fail to be impressed by the sprit of community of musicians in general and the Boston music community in particular. A further reminder …
Just an Old Buff Tom Story for Christmas
People have asked We Three Buffalos Tee for stories from the road. We have relatively few good ones worth telling. Certainly none of them are Zeppelin level. No arrests or major property damage.

CoTW 92 — Annie

CoTW 91 for Billy My Sweet Lord
Some recently unearthed Billy Ruane-related videos. This first one is the gig I mentioned in the last post, when Billy booked us for one of, if not our first Boston gig. You can see the cash flying when he throws money at us during the song. There here is on stage after, in full MC …
Billy Ruane, Rest in Peace
“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars …
