I also squeezed in a trip to Buffalo for a long weekend - primarily to see Ani DiFranco in her "home" venue (Babeville). Also, just to check out another rust-belt city that I've never been to before. Having to do this cheap, I found myself a hostel! The city was pretty great, though I have to admit that it did make Cleveland seem pretty cosmopolitan. :-)
It was also being in a place where everyone actually knows who Ani DiFranco is - and acknowledges her without an immediate judgement of "oh, that angry lesbian" (which is so off the mark). The old church venue was gorgeous.
Ani was great as usual. This performance was just her on stage, playing a lot of new stuff as usual. It was such a great time/space/place to be for me (except no damn cameras allowed).
