While I read Jeff Miers’ recent piece for The Buffalo News on his thoughts about the Buffalo Sabres’ individual goal songs, I reflected on another idea for a piece I had a few days for Die By the Blade. It’s undoubtedly neat to get an arts/music critic’s thoughts - but what about someone whose very specialty *is* hockey music?
Lucky for me, I happen to have one of those people in my household. Ryan Burgess - my husband, if that wasn’t clear - is a public address announcer & sports DJ who’s done work for a bunch of WNY hockey teams, including Sabres’ prospects challenges, the Amerks, the Beauts, Canisius College & more.
