Sweet Melody's Friday, September 17 at 7:00 PM

The front dining room of Sweet Melody's

It's not too often that I come across a place that I cannot wait to play. Last week's show was incredible! It was more like a theater in the round setting. I was able to talk about music and the setting was much more intimate. People laughed, cried, talked....it is very rare that one of my shows takes on that type of atmosphere and I am so happy it did. Check out my show this Friday, September 17 at 7:00. You will REALLY like it!

Here is the info:

Sweet Melody's
8485 Transit Rd.
East Amherst, NY 14051
Tel. 716-580-3227
It's located right at Millersport and Transit

I play on Friday, September 17 at 7:00 PM. I'll go until 10:00 PM. There is an amazing array of food and also a wine and beer bar. You have got to check out the gelato though. It is sinful!

Check out Sweet Melody's web site for more info at: Sweet Melody's

See you Friday, Sept. 17 at 7:00 PM!

I've been here 10 days...It's pretty amazing here let me tell you...I'll play here more during the summer...They get over 500,000 people on this Boardwalk! The shows here went amazing...I played three different venues and all three places offered me jobs throughout the summer. One place, The Deck at Holly Beach offred me Friday, Saturday and Sunday through the whole summer! I really have to decide if I want to be away from Buffalo for the summer season....I would miss you all terribly! Being away for ten days seems like I've been gone for as month...It's weird... In any case, I hope all is well! Here are my postings for the week: Pop/Rock Griffin 's Irish Pub. 81 Abbott Rd. 821-7708.

I have an afternoon show from 4-7 and the evening show from 9-12! This is amazing! I am very fortunate...If this goes well I will have the opportunity to play all summer at The Deck and two other establishments as well as some of the Do Wop motels (Rat Pack like cool places).

Benchwarmers is a wonderful downtown bar with an awesome stage, great food and plenty of space. It fits right into the Cobblestone District in Buffalo. If you haven't seen my Billy Joel/Elton John tribute now is the time to catch it. You'll love it!

Chandy's...another great night!

When my buddy Freddy Zillner first called me and told me he was managing a place called Chandy's Lounge I thought it sounded like just another small pub and all that goes along with that. How wrong I was! Fred has been my friend since we were kids so when he asked me to play there I told him I would.

Chandy's has turned out to be a real gem. The stage area is wonderful and the bar area is big enough to accommodate a pretty nice sized crowd. Last night I played a Wednesday night gig. It went great! Why? The owner Joe Gargano, Freddy and the crew loved what was going on and the patrons had a ball...all on a Wednesday night! Now I'm playing there on St. Patty's day! How cool is that?If you have a chance check out Chandy's. Better yet, come to one of my shows there!

Busy, Busy, Busy

Hi Everyone,

This past week was wonderful. The benefit I played for my friend Nancy Delmonte raised over $10,000 for her and breast cancer! How wonderful! This week is very busy....It's the busiest I will be until the summer...Here is the schedule:

Bar Louie. 280 Walden Galleria. Cheektowaga . 681-0257. Wed Feb. 24 @ 9:00 pm. (this place is wonderful! The bar is awesome, the specials fantastic and the music....well, you know!)

Forestview. 4781 Transit Rd. Depew. 656-8760. Thursday, Feb. 25 @ 9:00 pm (The Forestview is a place that is quickly getting known for having great music...much like Talty's. The bar is small but warm and the crowd is wonderful. They also serve food 24 hours)

Friday is a private show at Holimont Ski Resort

Caffe Expresso. 4401 Transit Rd. Williamsville. 626-2233. Sat. Feb. 27 @ 10:00 p.m. (OMG! This place is sooooo wonderful! The atmosphere is incredible with awesome food, bar, deserts and coffee! Check it out!)

Dr. Andy's Day For Kids. Buffalo Brew Pub. 6861 Main St. Williamsville. 632-0552. Sun. Feb. 28 @ 12:00 pm. until 6:00 pm. (This is my 10th year doing Doc Andy's Day For Kids. The 16th annual Doc's Day is an amazing event where doctors tend bar, donate all the tips, and a couple hundred people show up to support Sisters Hospital Special Care Nursery- a neonatal special care unit that helps the tiniest of patients. It is amazing and I know you would love it! Besides, there are incredible auctions, numerous 50/50 drawings...everything you could imagine. I hope to see some of you there.)

Well, that's it...Have a wonderful week and stop by and say hello!

Peace,

Gregg

Hi

Hi, How are you? Gregg Namaste "I bow to the divine in you"

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hi Everyone!

This is the week that you eat chocolate and buy cards...even for yourself! Sunday is St. Valentine's Day and for many people it is a great time to show love and affection to those you care about. This week is pretty busy for me because of that. I play at a new place, The Somerville Sports Bar in Tonawanda on "hump day" Wednesday. I could REALLY use any support. Friday is a great day....First I play Holimont Ski Resort and then it's off to Talty's for a mamoth Valentine's Day party! It should be amazing! Saturday I return to the beautiful Forestview on Transit in Depew...Their food is great and they serve it 24 hours a day! Go figure!

So here is my schedule:

Somerville Sports Bar. 365 Somerville Ave., Tonawanda. 834-0290. Wednesday, Feb. 10 @ 9:00 PM

Talty's. 2056 South Park Ave., Buffalo. 825-9279. Friday, Feb. 12 @ 9:30 PM (HUGE VALENTINE'S PARTY)

Forestview. 4781 Transit Rd., Depew. 656-8760. Saturday, Feb. 13 @ 9:00 PM (another great VD party!)

So there you have it....a week full of music and romance (well maybe on the romance). It would be amazing if you could get out to one my shows!

Have a wonderful week,

Gregg

A GREAT NEW PLACE! COME AND SUPPORT WNY LOCAL MUSIC!

Hi Everyone,

Last week at the Forestview and especially Griffin's the heat was on although it was frigid outside! This week is going to be even better! I play a brand new venue for me called Chandy's Lounge in Hamburg, NY. I love the opportunity to play my old stomping grounds, the Southtowns again! What makes it great is that the man who runs the Wednesday night bash is my adopted brother, Fred Zillner. He has a way with bars and people...you will absolutely LOVE this place! So come out of the cold and celebrate "Hump Day" with me...forget the humdrum of the week and sing and party with me!

Chandy's Lounge. 4923 Southwestern Blvd. Hamburg, NY 14075. 716-898-8925. Wednesday, Feb. 3 @ 8:00

Have a wonderful, warm, week. This weekend I play private shows but I'll be back in full swing the following weekend for Valentine's Day at Talty's and the Forestview.

Peace,

Gregg

Get out of the cold! Come to one of my shows!

I don't think any of us in Western New York will be swimming anytime soon!

This week is going to be a blast! I'm playing three of my favorite places! All of them have their own charm and great atmosphere! I hope you can make it to one of them (if not all!).....

Bar Louie. 280 Walden Galleria. Cheektowaga . 681-0257. Wed. (tonight) Jan. 27 @ 9:00 pm. (this place is wonderful! The bar is awesome, the specials fantastic and the music....well, you know!)

Forestview. 4781 Transit Rd. Depew. 656-8760. Thursday, Jan. 28 @ 9:00 pm (The Forestview is a place that is quickly getting known for having great music...much like Talty's. The bar is small but warm and the crowd is wonderful. They also serve food until 4:00 am)

Griffin's Irish Pub. 81 Abbott Rd. Buffalo. 821-7708. Saturday, Jan. 30 @ 10:00 (OMG! Griffin's is ALWAYS a fantastic time! If you have never been to one of my shows there you are missing out. Danny Griffin always comes up and does Elvis and the crowd really gets into things! You've GOT to check it out!)

I just came back from a much needed break. I hope all of you in Western New York are staying warm. If you live in a warmer climate I want to kick your butt! It's freezing here!

Peace,

Gregg

A Couple of GREAT places!

Hi All,

I trust your New Year's activities were safe and pleasant! I know many people stayed home! Good for you! I played the Niagara Falls Country Club and the average age was about 72! I kid you not.

Here is the schedule:

Forestview. 4781 Transit Rd. Depew. 656-8760. Sat.: Gregg Sansone, 10:00 pm

Bar Louie. 280 Walden Galleria. Cheektowaga . 681-0257. Sun.: Gregg Sansone, 10:00 pm.

Peace,

Gregg
