Subject: RE: Tell us about your town...and the music.
East Aurora, New York. Village of about 10,000 in the Western part of the state. I live in the house built by my great grandfather in 1906. We made national news in '98 by refusing to let Wallmart build one of their "big boxes" in our midst. They tried again this year, whupped 'em again. Home to Fisher Price toys, Moog valve, and Elbert Hubbard's Roycroft artist's commune. Music at the coffee shop my wife works at. Hope to play myself after the holidays. Mike Bennett P.S. Don, looks like we're gonna excavate and rebuild the western commercial slip at this end of the canal{Buffalo} and make a park out of it..Great Idea!
