Siro's has Big Shot, a Billy Joel tribute band, playing on Friday night. They're pretty good, if you are into that sort of thing. Drinks there are much more reasonable than they used to be.

ya mean like "man, what are you doin here ?" and "he knows that it's been me they've been coming to see" Billy Joel. A Billy Joel tribute band......thats rich, he's a nostalgia act himself.

Sniper and I went there a week and a half ago... definately get a pitcher of margarita's. we split two pitchers and both had a great meal... walked out of there with full and satisfied belly's.. and drunk minds.

It is much more California Style than Mexican. My vote strongly goes to Mexican Connection as well.

Only if you stick to the fried chicken and sweet corn, both of which are great. Would advise against ordering anything else. They did the near impossible and screwed up red beans and rice.

Put some advance wagers down, leave the track early and take the drive over to Cooperstown.
