Born and raised in Minnesota, but moved to Buffalo for the weather...and wings!
John
Flashback Video Of The Week
There's been a lot of talk recently about Led Zeppelin plagiarizing their biggest songs.
Was 'Stairway to Heaven' a riff that was done years before by Spirit?
Was 'Babe I'm Gonna Leave You' a Folk song written in the late 50's.
Not long ago, Robert Plant decided if you can't beat them, join them...
Steve Perry Returns To The Stage
Steve Perry, the one and only real lead singer of Journey, made a surprise return to the stage the other night in Minneapolis.
Joining Eels for their gig, Steve not only did one of their songs, but a handful of Journey songs.
For years, a reunion with Journey has been top of mind, but heath problems have always kept Steve from getting back with his old band...
Let It Go Parody
Every week, there seems to be a new parody of 'Let It Go' from Frozen.
If you have a child (or if you just like Frozen), you know every version of this song known to Man or Woman.
JACK wants to add another parody to the list.
Check it out and remember:
"The Cold never bothered JACK anyway"...
Buffalo To Ban Bon Jovi?
Jon Bon Jovi is buying the Buffalo Bills and moving the team to Toronto.
Mr. Jaws
In the summer of 1975, everything was about Jaws.
Some say Star Wars was the first real summer blockbuster film, but it was Jaws.
Lines around the block to see it and everyone was afraid to go in the water, even swimming pools.
Then, along came a novelty 'song' titled Mr...
Buffalo At Night
Buffalo after dark is a special place.
Maybe we don't appreciate it enough?
Check out this video and think about how cool everything looks when the Sun goes down.
Now that the warm weather is coming back, isn't it time to take a look around Buffalo at night...
Planet Of The Apes Action Figures
Please don;t call them 'Dolls'.
For all young Men growing up in the 70's, owning a few of these action figures was a must.
G.I. Joe?
Only if you had too, but the real deal was Planet of the Apes.
Movies, TV Shows and even Books (if you wanted to read)...
Will Farrell As Robert Goulet
If your under 30, you might be saying "Robert who?".
Robert Goulet was a mainstay on all the old time variety shows:
Carol Burnett, Sony & Cher and even the short lived Starland Vocal Band show.
Robert is a singer, but not a very funny guy.

Buffalo Burger
Have you ever made a Buffalo Burger?
We're not talking about using Buffalo hot sauce, but real Buffalo meat.
It sounds intimidating, but leave it to Gordon Ramsay, he makes everything look easy.
He also screams at you while he cooks, but that's another story...
ABBA On American Bandstand
Who doesn't like ABBA?
Name another band that you can spell forward or backward and sound the same.
Forward: ABBA
Backward: ABBA
See, they rule.
Come with JACK to 1975 when the members of ABBA where not only happy, in love and married, but also at the top of their game...
