216.0. "Boston Bands" by NEMAIL::MERCIER (Will that Redeem us Uncle Remus) Thu May 07 1992 14:56

    I did not see a topic for Local Boston Bands. If one is out there..feel
    free to delete this note. Do you know, have you heard, do you belong to
    a Boston based band?

    OK, a local music note is cool (even though we have a note on "defunct"
    local bands I think this should remain. In fact, I figured the original
    note was a bit narrow in its scope and that a plain old local music
    note would have been better). Let's just call it "Boston Bands" though,
    the redundancy in "Local" is unappealing.
    
    However, since most people in this conference are in bands that are in
    and around the Boston area, please leave any discussion of your own
    bands to note 16.

	I understood the author of the base note to be asking about Digital 
	employees who are in bands, specifically from the Boston area.  

	I would have thought a simple pointer to the slightly inactive note 
	#16 would have done it.  {I know there's more folks here in bands 
	than mentioned there, come on, where are you?}

	I for one would like to hear about bands from all areas, those which
	fall under note #16, those which fall under #121 which was not intended
	as a topic on only defunct bands but on bands who for whatever reason 
	you feel deserve greater attention than their loyal local following 
	gives them, or used to give prior to their breakup.  Also, a local 
	band topic independent of area would be interesting.

216.3Buffalo Tom anybody ??SNOC02::SHEARDJEFFMon May 25 1992 07:1210
    I thought he was referring to Boston based bands.
    
    Residing in Australia, I have only heard one recently (I know there's
    bound to be heaps of others) - "Buffalo Tom" - They have a medium hit
    here called "Velvet Roof" - I like 'em alot.
    
    Any info or background on "Buffalo Tom"
    
    Thanks,
