I just gave some of their stuff a try after a late night session of Wikipedia-fueled 'whatever happened to...'. I was a fan of Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy back in the day. I discovered that Spearhead isn't my thing, but I'm glad Franti is still out there.
If you get a chance, try seeing them live. I caught them at the Hollywood Bowl a couple of summers ago and they were awesome.

Favorite Sabres Moment: Drury's GTG against Rangers in '07 playoffs- My husband started going to games when we started dating in 2002. Sabres were losing with 10 seconds left, I look at my husband and he's slumped in his seat with a look of utter despair on his face.....Drury ties it and he's gone from despair to complete jubilation. It was then that I realized that I ruined him. He is now doomed to experience the torture of being a Sabres fan for the rest of his life.
Favorite Movies: first seen in the last month division: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Evil
Awesome movie. Everytime I've been in Best Buy or really any entertainment store the last couple of years I've taken a detour into the movie section and looked for it....still haven't found it.
For those who are shying away because they don't like Jim Carrey (I was in this crowd), he's actually really good (and in no way over the top) in this movie.

You had me going there - I thought you were going to say he popped the question after Drury scored. If he did that, well, he's a true romantic.

With that movie and The Truman Show, Jim Carrey is underrated.

All were awesome memories. # 11 scoring 500 was pretty cool too. Scalped tix for the lower bowl right behind the net he scored in.
