So On Friday night I went to a bisons game got the tickets from someone who won them at work and didn't want them or wouldn't use them.... Bisons lost So I kinda just feel like posting pix of the food and fire works.... We shall see....
Then I got home Just in time to catch the end of the walk across the falls it sure seemed cool and think a saw a maid of the mist boat in the water....

Weekend ?Art Fest 2012Category: summer
So one of the things with being on line on Twitter (Need a cell phone with internet I really need to get one of those) and face book is those sites really are for things that are short form ... So it feels weird to like put a blog on the book of face and it feels weird to do like a statement on (e:strip)... That being said I love mobile and think those are a great idea... Post a picture from say some event or cool art.....
So I didn't read them all but in today's online version not sure where in the paper if it was there where stories about the Allentown Art Festival.....
Now I've bought all kinds of art there... Dragon Pictures and other fantasy art, Photos, 3D, Animal Pictures, and then some odd stuff to... Now granted some of the art is also at the Elmwood Festival of the arts as well...That is a lot of fun also.... Some of those stuff is amazing and out of my budget and then some of it I love but don't the shelves or the mantel to put cool creatures or metal hanging planes or statues.....
Now then though there is also the yes they named it like 2 years ago as opposed to it being the unofficial oh don't go down there festival.... Yes there are bars that both days have all kinds of music and there will be all kinds of cool things going on there.... Last year think they had that car they were painting and a what ever you call that rag timey wash board and bucket base type of band shows up out of nowhere..... Plus more art.... The only thing is that street needs to be twice as wide it takes for ever to move down it like form noon on.... I can't imagine how insane Cantina Loco will be.....
Now I'm sure this isn't the only thing going on isn't there June Teenth ... I'll be going to see Memphis Sat.. Hoping I like it... It is a bit out of my comfort zone music wise but the review in the paper gave it like 3 out 4 so I'm sure it will be great....
The news also had a story about how it is the start of summer.... It really is it is festival time and the Harbor just started (I didn't go).....
So hope everyone has a great weekend what ever they are doing... Maybe I'll even get some art we shall see......

Pride Stripteasers Event 2012Category: photos
So think I all ready mentioned that I missed the Dyke March and it was my own fault someone not sure where the time vanished to and I left and they got a head of me and I didn't catch up so.... Early on in the day I went to the lloyds thing and that was fun (Have a post on it) then at night it time for I forget the official name of the bands and the stripteasers at Niethchez's ....
So I think what I will do is kinda do the highlights and make it all one Post?
I've seen them before but never know there name yes the pictures will be dark of this old style music band with like a stand up base and they where great....
Now the next band I think I've seen before and I thought they sounded Pretty good was called the Allbrights.....
Now I've seen the stamplickers before and they are fun... Now some of the members where on stage and some over in the seating and the performed as part of the stripteasers act.... The Card boy Is new but was in the show later so........
With not knowing how well they translate on here I didn't want to go to crazy with the pix hoping that kinda gives the story... The bits was that the blonde was a news reporter and that they had news stories... One was about how the wig shop was turning people gay or something.... There was the teacher with a student... That flasher/killer... Then I don't know the story but they have done that automatic boy one before but not like that.... It was a lot of fun..... Now then after this the stamplickers did a normal set with everyone on stage and some photos of that.... But what is interesting is how the stage was a bit extended people would dance up there so.... Yes some of them where the Burlesque performers.....
I can't really give the vibe of what it was like for those dancing on the floor but good time and good music it was fun....... Hope the pictures convey it...I have no idea if anyone I know was there I didn't see anyone but that doesn't mean anything.....

Pride Parade 2012Category: photos
I guess Picture wise and time wise the thing that makes the most sense is to do the Pride Parade now and then maybe get to the stripteasers on Tues? I was supposed to go to the DYKE March but lost time some how and then they got ahead of me and I forgot the route ....Now with mobile internet like on a phone I don't know as I could have gotten ahead of them but I could have at least gone the right way.... See I was thinking of last years way but also for some reason Klienhans wouldn't let them use the lot......
One thing I have to say is I'm not sure how I feel about politicians being in the Parade... Part of me thinks it is great here is someone saying they support this.... But at the same time I see it as a way of promoting them selves like why not just walk with others .... I guess what I think could happen is that at some point you might get people walking in it who don't support the cause to get attention or maybe even cause other people are in it..... But I also feel the same way about lays chips... Or maybe it is just the name.... I guess in the end both things are good.... Another positive is that the people giving out things like condoms give them out and not just toss them and the things for the kids like beads or candy are given to them... That way you aren't tossing condoms to kids.....
Oh I'm also glad to see that Terror Tech was there... Yes the zombies and other things people... I think that maybe that will bring out more supporters to the parade that is also why I kinda think the politicians and companies are good......
After the parade was over I followed it a bit to my way home and went down north so here are some pictures from that....
