Friend Rob Leach on Facebook. He's awesome and runs a lot of the dance stuff in Buffalo (I hope you like Bal, because Rob does...). Sam Copeland is also an awesome lead in Buffalo who would have a lot of info.

I actually haven't done too much dancing in Buffalo for years, but I know they have a regular swing night on Mondays.

Thanks!!! Awesome. And yes, I do love Bal. It's been almost 6 years since I've danced (been overseas), but can't wait to stretch my legs a little...

The info on those Buffalo-info threads is definitely old. There used to not be much lindy hop in Buffalo, but having a couple awesome leaders has really helped get that scene into gear.

And yes, there is a workshop weekend going on in September, Rhythm Shuffle, which is bringing in Bobby and Kate. So that should be pretty cool.
