Come down to the Market on Monday March 22 @ 10:30 am…

A whole bunch of local dignitaries will be on hand to help usher in B-F’s and the Market’s busiest time of the year!

The season for the Market actually begins on 03/20.

I love it…my favorite time of the year in B-F.

After a meeting at the Broadway Market yesterday, I had to zip over to Corpus Christi to check out new audio setup in the church for broadcasting purposes this coming Sunday.

Once I was finished, I took a walk up the North Tower of Corpus Christi and took a few photos.

I wish I had more time to shoot more, but so it goes.

It felt like I was in some sort of movie.

I know…how is it related to B-F…well I went to school here…it is a great school.

I absolutely, positively, undeniably love where I went to high school in the B-lo…the Buffalo Academy for Visual and Performing Arts…it is truly a gem and coolest school in all of WNY.

Want to help it out?  I know you do.

From 03/10 to 03/17, shop at Barnes and Noble and portion of the proceeds will go to BAVPA…easy enough to do.

Just print up the following voucher and bring with you.

On Dyngus Day, the Broadway Market WILL BE OPEN and Celebrating!!!!

Watch for more events – presently scheduled from Noon to 3:00PM the Jagermeister-sponsored, Fritz’s Polka Band will be performing at the market.

The group was formed in 1978 by lead accordionist, the late Fred Scherz Sr., and his eight-year old son, Fritz, for whom the band was named. Sadly, Fred passed away on November 14, 2009, but Fritz is going to try to keep FPB going. FPB performs an eclectic mix of musical styles, including modern polka, country, fox-trot, waltz, and more! Fritz’s Polka Band is NOT an oompa pa band or the stereotypical “polka” band. In fact, FPB is known for breaking the stereotype regarding “polka” music. FPB is the first polka band to perform at a Woodstock Festival!

Came across an article on the Market from the Buffalo News’ Ray Hill from March 1991.  Is it me…because 1991 doesn’t seem like almost twenty years ago?!?!?!
