Too far away! Is it me, or is the concept of 'first night' dying out?

As a former resident of Western PA, I remember hearing that Bradford was
nicknamed the 'icebox of Pennyslvania' because of some of the lowest
recorded temperatures in the state. According to Wikipedia, that title goes
to Kane, PA, but to me it will always be Bradford.

the icebox of Pa would be the back porch patio of Watertown NY
glad I am 50 miles south of where it really gets cold.

Hmm, I'm about 700 miles south of that, and it's getting too cold for me
here. Today there was *ice* falling from the sky - and that's just wrong.
Need to move back to South Florida :-)

I did a show in Bradford in May. Late at night, I went outside to smoke
a cigarette & a black bear ran right by me. I thought it was a black lab
until I saw it under a street light. Dogs aren't that muscular. Bradford
is on the border of Allegheny National Forrest. They have more bears
than stray cats.

The old Pittsburgh weathermen would always give the Bradford temperatures.
I guess they forgot about it now. I remember when i stayed the night and it
was cold.

rain and snow few ventured outside until the fireworks
it was a small crowd, maybe 100 in our venue, the premier venue
and only a handfull at other sites I visited
it was a respectful event, not packs of drunken frat boys looking for sluts
to flash their titties :-(
But the band were good friends and we actually stayed with them in Ridgway,
40 miles south of bradford
we made it back to ridgway about 11:40, just in time to open the bubbly and
set out the cheese and olive tray I brought
we sat up until 2 am , telling lies and flirting with each others better
halfs
it was a magical wonderful time that while I would love to do it again, the
magic of NYE 2010 will never be equalled

Times like this I envy you George...those kind of things make it all worth
while....
On the other hand, I get to go fishing when you have to work...
Not into ice fishing so staying home today. Colder than shit here.
30 miles from town, not much to do but fire up the satellite dish.
Hopefully a little warmer next week gonna crank up the heat in the woodshop
and try my hand at some furniture...

I mentioned that I saw a black bear in Bradford in May. I used to play
at a bar called Summit Manor in Ridgeway back in the early '80's. I went
out to my van, which was parked out back of the club. I heard some
rumbling leaves & turned on my headlights to see what it was. You
guessed it. I saw a black bear, not 20 feet away, climb into a dumpster,
throw out some garbage bags, crawl back out & rip the bags open to
feast. I always wondered what might have happened if I got too close to
the bear in the darkness. I was told that the bear was shot the next
hunting season; it was 400 lbs.
Sounds like you had a great time.
