The Spectrum staff members made their choices for fun things to do in Buffalo this weekend – what will you do?
For the partier:
Put on those furry boots, colorful tutus and sequin eye makeup because EDM DJ RL Grime is performing Saturday, Nov. 8 at the Waiting Room at 8 p.m. and Rusko, an English dubstep producer and DJ, will take the stage the same night at Town Ballroom at 8 p.m.
For the intellectual:
Canadian translator and poet Erin Moure will give a poetry reading and lead a discussion at the Western New York Book Arts Center, (WNYBAC) 468 Washington St. in Buffalo at 7 p.m. The WNYBAC is an educational non-profit organization that has a letterpress, screen-printing studio, gallery and working museum. You can peruse the handmade cards, postcards and posters as well as the small library of books on book arts.
For the athletic type:
Catch the Buffalo Bills play the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday, Nov. 9, 1 p.m., at The Ralph.

If you haven’t taken the trip downtown to check out the sparkly new HarborCenter, the brain-child of Terry and Kim Pegula, ECC men’s hockey plays Hudson Valley Saturday, Nov. 8 and Sunday, Nov. 9 at 7:25 p.m.
For the artsy type:
The Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra (BPO) is performing the music of Led Zeppelin Friday, Nov. 7 at 8 p.m. Brent Havens leads the BPO with the vocals of Randy Jackson as they pay homage to one of the greatest classic rocks bands of all time.
