RE:summer schedule

In case you're trying to avoid me all summer, here are the dates and places you do not want to be....have a great summer.....see you in the future....you won't be able to avoid me then.....I will find you in the future and I will ask why you were avoiding me.......you'll feel a little uncomfortable.....there'll be an awkward silence....then you'll walk away mumbling something under your breath about my ego.....I'll call back, "I thought the music meant something to you man (or woman....whatever)." You'll reply, "Get a life!" And I'll say check out this link to the Buffalo Place 4th of July gig.....it's really family friendly.....face painting, clowns, temporary tattoos.....I'm so glad we had this time together.

For you baseball fans...this Friday, May 8th from 5:00 p.m until 6:45 p.m., Tom Stahl and the Dangerfields will be playing out in front of Cocoa Cola Field..... If you're worried about the Bisons current slump, don't.....I can guarantee a victory this Friday....that doesn't mean the Bisons will win...it just means I have the ability to guarantee....you have to pay to see the Bisons, but Dangerfields are free.

RE: SATURDAY IN HAMBURG

This Saturday, April 25th , the Village of Hamburg is having some kind of music festival....there'll be live music in different venues all over town....the only thing I'm sure about is that Tom Stahl and the Dangerfields will be playing at the Coyote Cafe from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m .  I'm pretty sure it's free and I think there might be a bus to transport people to the different venues.... but, now that you know Tom Stahl and the Dangerfields are playing at the Coyote from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., who cares about the other bands or venues.  WHOOOOAAA!!!!!   BAD EGO....BAD.....BACK IN YOUR CAVE WHERE YOU BELONG...EVERYONE IS WONDERFUL....AND VERY PRETTY AND SMART AND KIND AND GOOD LOOKING AND SMART. 

And don't let the unseasonably warm weather scare you, we'll be OUTSIDE.

RE: Inauguration Party

Well, the election is over and I'd like to congratulate everyone who took part in the process.....I've very proud of you....you stood up and said in a loud, clear voice, "We believe...We believe Tom Stahl and the Dangerfields  is the Best Original Band at the 2008 Buffalo Music Awards ."  You are hereby invited to the Inauguration Party on December 13th at the Tralf Music Hall.  'Tis also the season for family and/or office parties.....I understand some of you may have conflicts on this particular evening.....let me just say....I've been to Dangerfield parties.....I've been to office parties....I've been to family parties.....No one needs to make fools of themselves in front of family and co-workers when you can do it in the dark at a Dangerfield show.  What happens in the Dangerfields, stays in the Dangerfields....that doesn't quite sound right, but I think you know what I mean.

You think that might be too much fun, then come to the Lancaster Opera House on January 10, 2009, where I will be performing solo without Annette.  If you knew Annette, you'd know why, but I digress.  Here's everything you have to know for all your pre and post holiday entertainment plans.

 Apparently, Tom Stahl and the Dangerfields have been nominated for "Best Original Band" and Gary Kowalski Dangerfield has been nominated for "Best Original Drummer" in the 2008 Buffalo Music Awards.  I don't know how it happened, but it did.  Not only that, but this year the voting is open to real people....(it used to be open to only music type people).  Voting closes soon.  So, if you qualify as a real people type person, you can go to www.bestofwny.com or the voting link at www.tomstahlandthedangerfields.com and vote for Gary and the band.  If you don't qualify, you know where you can go......to these next two shows in Wellsville or Syracuse
