New Heathens - Rootsy Rock 'n' Roll Band in New York City

Gig Down Under, MT Buffalo
Thursday, January 29, 2009

Played a little basement gig down under the Soho Australian bar Eight Mile Creek with Gitano last night. Chad & Courtney came out. Then we took it to the swish Merc Bar a few blocks away and broke into a spontaneous jam at closing time.

OK, up for more buffalo stuff today? A Montana state house committee will meet to discuss HB 253, a bill that would put management of Montana's wild buffalo (those around Yellowstone) under the control of the department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks. Currently, bison are managed by the Department of Livestock, who for years have "managed" them by shooting every one that leaves the park. The Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks could manage bison like other game species, such as elk. This means private property and livestock would be protected, a regulated bison hunt could be established and, most importantly of all, the beasts could roam free.

"Wild" Bill Schneider on New West wrote a good article explaining the bill.

Wanna' get crazy and contact legislators? Buffalo Allies of Bozeman has 'em on their site.
