All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

WGR radio in Buffalo contact somebody who put up an acoustic curtain in the Civic Center in Hartford. The cost, several years ago, for a smaller building, was...$300,000.
He estimates the curtain for the Arena will cost approx. $500,000....just for a curtain...that probably would not include labor.
Interview to occur at 9:00 am.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
not mid-range (6,000-12,000). Shea's only holds 4,500 and they don't like having rock concerts there and Kleinhans only holds about 2,500. Alumni Arean holds about 5,000 but the acoustics are horrible (it is concrete).

There are also other sports teams in Buffalo. I have never been to a destroyers game but it must not be a very pleasant experience sitting there watching a game when the upper bowl isn't even being used. One of the things you look for in a live sporting event is intensity. That sounds real boring to me. I remember going to manley field house man that place was intense. You would think the Carrier Dome and it's 40K fans at a BB game would be more intense...but it isn't. In Manley the fans are packed in from the floor to the roof. It was awesome. I can only speculate the curtain will close the arena down and things won't seem so empty there at other events.
I took 9 screaming little bastards to a Destroyers game last year around the 4th of July. For once, I was glad the place was deserted. Easier to catch the little punks when they run away.

Doesn't Darien Lake have something? Or is that only outdoors?
Darian Lake is one of the worst places on earth to see a concert. It is also outside you can't really compare it to an arena. Not having a decent sized arena in a city the size of Buffalo would be a travestry. I'll say it again incompetent management is the challenge with the arena not that it exists.
Darien i think hurt the arena. I liked the few concerts i went to but over all the sound is better at the arena. I assume darien lake being privately owned doesn't have the associated politics that the arena has involved. Also i bet it's cheaper.
