was packed. We went to go see (e:rachel) and (e:dragonlady) play. We seriously had to park like a block away and walk down some railroad tracks (as with any good trip to the tonawandas) to get to the place we were going. North Tonawanda smelled exactly how I remembered it - a faint smell of burning rubber.
Rainbow rink - 101 Oliver Street, North Tonawanda, NY was exactly how I remembered it. It was downright freakish to hear Mr. Roboto playing when we got there. I think it may have been the last song I heard there the last time I left, sometime in the 80s. It was nice to be able to drink beer this time around.

Gave a buck for fleshette. I would have given more but I had forgotten my wallet and that was my remaining change.
Even though she played for the "other team" - I think my favorite was crashinova - she reminded me of (e:robin) for some reason.
(e:lilho) was really stressed that the teams didn't have proper fashion consultation.
Hey, I played on Saturday night! I was on the Devil Dollies, C.N. Red #13. Thanks for coming out and see us play. We appreciate your support, and I hope you had a good time!
I like the pictures thanks for sharing them. The pictures do tell a good story.
I don't know the stats from our admissions but Barb the rink owner's wife was explaining that they had 500 chairs so if all those were full, that was 500 people; plus she could count about 100-150 people sitting on the walls and barriers, and there were some people on the floor. But I didn't have time to see if all the chairs were full, so I can't say for sure how many people we got in that place.
I don't want to scare people away with the crowds, but we really need to consistently sell out the venue in order to be taken seriously. I think we're doing well for our first season, but we have yet to attract any major sponsors, and we're going to need some serious cash to fund a travel team this summer.
What did you think of the show?? Was it fun??
We didn't have proper fashion consultation? They're sports uniforms-- believe me, we tried everything, it's all we could really get. And we did have a bit of fashion consultation-- #007 on the Knockouts is a model and actually joined the league because she met me and one of my coworkers at the airport because she flies to New York so often.
i went to rainbow rink to get skates when I was stralight express for haloween and i felt the same way. It was exactly the same as when I last was there circa 1994.
goddammit I missed it again!!
And you guys were all there so it would have been extra fun?!
And hottie david was supposed to be there too.
ugh.
Meant to head out last night, but I had the youngins and couldn't talk em into it. We got as far as Dairy Queen and headed back. I remembered the crowd from February and figured that we'd have no hope with a late arrival. Looks like they attracted another big crowd
