John,
You are the best!
Looking forward to meeting you in Hammer's Lot on Saturday!
That's where my friend and I are staying! Are you taking the rally bus?
Hey John, It's Tony. Thanks again for being so helpful on the emails. Would it be okay for me to use your grill to cook on? I can bring a cooler with me from Long Island that you put some things in as well George.
I have sent him an email to reserve a spot and have not received a reply.
better hurry; I think they will be more or less sold out.
PS It is, conveniently, around the corner from Fordham Ave., where the site of President McKinley's assassination is marked with a plaque.
Thanks for the offer George but we have already booked our spots! Maybe we'll see you at the hostel though.
Thats right where i live. Take Slade to Ridge Road turn right. When you get to Abbott rd 2 lights down turn left. The stadium in on this rd 4 miles down. You will beat all the traffic if you do.
Talk about your favorite band.

Nice call on the Hostel, Dean. Unlike many I have seen in London, the one in Buffalo seems pretty nice at least from the outside. And good location downtown near a lot of restaurants and bars and on the trolley line.

A bit TOO close to the trolley line and the beep-beep-beep of reversing construction trucks. But otherwise very clean and friendly and sedate and rather empty.

If you have ANY questions during your stay in Buffalo, or want to connect for the Stones bar/party on Friday night or the tailgate before the show on Saturday....do not hesitate to email me at: [email protected]
Yes, it's a real email! I will respond as quickly as I can.
There is MUCH MUCH more to see and do. But it is late and I am a terrible typist. Hope to meet some of you and enjoy the show on Saturday! Hope this post helps enhance your weekend and did not wear out your eyes with its length!
John
John,
You are the best!
Looking forward to meeting you in Hammer's Lot on Saturday!

Hammers lot sounds good to me! Can we walk to the stadium?
We prefer to park somewhere with partying people.
Last can we grill out? is there a community cooler?

Hi George! I come from a line of McDonnells.
Hammer is across the street to the stadium. Literally steps. You can cook out. I will bring a grill and plan of cooking and you are welcome to use it. No community cooler that I know of but I am happy to bring an extra cooler or two packed with ice. Do McDonnells from your country drink?

I will search for Victoria Bitter here in Orchard Park, but I am guessing you may have to switch to something else! Your best chance to find something Aussie would be at Consumers Beverages or Wegmans if shopping before the show.
I'll be bringing a mix of local brews. Maybe some local vodka.

To do Friday (closed at the weekend):
The observation deck on the 28th floor of the wonderfully art deco City Hall. It is free, as the noon tour of the building.
Best not to rent a kayak. The guide said the lakefront will be full of floaters since today's rain will overwhelm the sewerage system.

Is Hammer taking reservations for the lot? I want to guarantee a spot because I'll be there with my 72-year-old father (who is not Mick Jagger) and I don't want him to have to walk far. Plus, I don't want to miss out on the IORR party if the lot fills up with casual fans before I get there.

See you there.

Alieb I think we are driving so we can park and tailgate.
If you don't want to take the bus I am sure you can join us. We are meeting up with several other IORR's.
Dean, thanks for the tip mate we plan to stay at the Hostel it is very reasonable.

Just got us a room at Homewood suites by Hilton near the Wegmans.
We have a suite with a refrigerator and cooking area.
There was still another room left when I called a few minutes ago.

buffalo7478 you are great !! Thank you very much for all the wonderful things you propose and all the valuable infos you give !!
I'm wondering if anyone from this board rides Shidoobee's bus and then to the party at Danny's South.
I'm flying tomorrow to Buffalo and will be great to meet fellow IORRIANS on Saturday before the show !!
