PHOTO STORY!

Powder Keg- A Short Photostory from Jamie Moore on Vimeo.




If there was ever any doubt as to whether or not Jamie Moore is the man, the following video will end that debate once and for all.


We had an amazing time on the road November 4th 5th and 6th.
The weather was beautiful, the shows were incredible, the other bands ruled, and we made a ton of new friends that we can't wait to see again soon.

We were lucky enough to have our pal Jamie Moore join us for the weekend, and document the shenanigans photographically.

Doing what he does best, Jamie put some of the photos together in a video format...added the audio from an interview with yours truly, tossed in a currently UNRELEASED Better Times track...and made this little masterpiece right here.


Check it out.
Check Jamie out.
Stay tuned for more things of this nature in the future.

Goodbye Cruel Cow





If you haven't already heard the news, our friends and Buffalo Hardcore heavyweights Goodbye Cruel World were involved in a serious vehicle collision in Colorado this past weekend.

Fortunately none of the guys were physically injured, but the van itself was a complete loss and had to be TOTALED.

While they are certainly glad to be alive, they are now facing the reality of being stranded 1,500 miles from home with a few hundred pounds of equipment and merch.

Last I heard, they had rented a truck and were making the long drive back to Buffalo.

If you've ever been in a hardcore band, you understand very well that making money from touring does not happen. More often than not, your average hardcore band spends more money than they make on tour, or barely breaks even.
Having to total their sole means of transportation is a major setback for GCW.
Resorting to a rental vehicle to travel such a long distance is extremely expensive.
Gasoline for that rental vehicle is extremely expensive
Purchasing a replacement van for the one they wrecked will not be cheap either.

Here's where you come in.

The band is requesting donations via their PayPal account.
ANYTHING you can send their way to help offset the cost of the rental truck and gasoline would be greatly appreciated.

Being involved in a serious accident is stressful enough as it is.
The added stress of being stranded 1,500 miles from home with very few options must be even more scary.

If you've got anything sitting in your PayPal account...or can afford to send them $5 or $10 bucks....they'd really appreciate it.
And I'm sure you would, too, if you had just narrowly survived a near-death experience like theirs.

Head over to PayPal.com and click "Send Money".
Enter GCWbuffaloStyle@gmail.com as the receiving address and help them out!


Also...if you were planning on ordering any GCW merch at any point in your life...now would be a great time to do it!
They could use that merch money now more than ever.
Pick up a record or a shirt!




Also, most importantly... SPREAD THE WORD.
This is the information age.
There's no reason this story shouldn't be on every hardcore message board, blog, tumblr page, etc ASAP.


Buffalo Style PICK IT UP
