Paul Curcio of the Mojo Men

Jim Alaimo was the cousin of Steve Alaimo. Steve grew up in Rochester, had a group, the Redcoats with Jim, and went on to host Where The Action Is!, amongst other things.

Wilmer and the dukes, Geneva: In Geneva, there were two kinds of kids. Those who went to 'Wilmer' and those who didn't." may have been the inspiration for Otis Day and the Knights. It was at the "Holiday Bar and Grille" in 1963 that they were first heard by future Blue Öyster Cult vocalist Eric Bloom. He became a fan of the band, attending over 100 performances, and stayed close with them for years. In 1967, his own student band, Lost and Found, opened for the Dukes when they played at his campus, Hobart College, and they also came to perform at his fraternity, Tau Kappa Epsilon.

The Humans, Albion: first dug up and featured on Back From the Grave vol5

and my friend had a band called Serious, but they never released anything. But my band does a song called We're Not Serious that mentions the Bug Jar and the Can of Worms...

There was a great garagey power-pop band from Buffalo when I lived up there... My memory is failing me... They opened for my friend's band (a metal-ish band from NYC) when they played up there one time... Ahjeez. I can't remember who they were... I think they put out a CD that Bill Kelly played some tracks from ... 15 years ago... Memory fails me...

Oh, the only band I know really from Buffalo that I actually liked were the Bloody Hollies. Probably not them, MCGroovey.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:35pm
McGroovey:

Hmmmm I have to ask my friend....

I am half-thinking of the Bloody Hollies, because they sounded a bit like the Bloddy Hollies, but with a Raspberries injection.

Projectiles? I don't think so. Hmmmm

I grew up between Rochester and Syracuse, but closer to Syracuse. My cousin was friends with all the Syracuse bands of he late '70s. Some of them are still around (The Flashcubes/Screen Test being my favorite). But Rochester has always had more great bands at any one time than Syracuse.

Albany had a great scene when I live there in the '80s. No idea what it's like now.

McGroovey:

Unfortunately I was a little too young to go out an see bands in Syracuse. I turned 18 a week before I went off to college in Albany. Around the time I lived in Rochester I got to know the Syracuse bands (the ones that still were going) a little through my cousin.

But really, the Syracuse music scene has really always tended more toward roots music, jazz, jam bands, and mainstream rock. My dad was a drummer in several local jazz and standards groups.
