You said what?
Been taking some heat in the comment section of late. I love it! What started as a blog for a small group of friends and coworkers has become something more. Last month over 8000 people wandered by. Wow and thanks. As for the comments, well. Boisee.com is what it is. See notice to readers.
Boisee.com is my opinion, my likes, and dislikes. I write about what I know. Someone recently accused me of "journalism." I assured him that any journalism found here was entirely by mistake. Integrity hopefully-real news-not so much.
Sometimes I will post a rumor and label it as such. Yes, now and then I am wrong. Mostly I get it close. If you disagree, or I get it wrong-your welcome to come on in make a comment and say so.
Liquor up front. . .
The real estate gurus are reporting that a tenant for a big “double†bar is looking in downtown Boise for a location.What is a double bar? It is a clasic idea, you put one type of music and vibe in one end. A differnt style in the other. So country up front, live rock, or a DJ in back. Done right it can appeal to at least two types of customers, the nightlifers like only having to pay one cover.
The original Shorty’s started like this, go back further and you have the Rockin’ Rodeo across from BSU. It can work.
Wouldn’t it be very cool to see downtown be a Mecca of great music and fun times.
Downtowns a Buzz
If this was a real news site, you would have to call this BREAKING NEWS. Insiders are telling us that the old Funny Bone is going to be remodeled into a good old fun time bar. Think the Bouquet back when it had Blues, or Pengillys back when it had smoke. If you drink in any of the places you read about in Boisee.com you will find familiar faces behind the bar. We are also told that the room will feature live music and local art! All I need is $4.00 Red Label's and I'm there. More soon.
Boisee Florida Connection
Recieved this e-mail this morning, thought I would share. Wayne is one of the cool guys. To bad he got out of town before my second dance lession. Here is his letter:

Thank you Mister Day. Just want you to know that Boisee is my connection to Boise. Things are great here is Florida, my mother 's doing great, during the day I work at Ronsonet Buick, GMC ( my classmate is the owner) and it allows me to play with A-list national and international smooth jazz artist such as Matt Marshak, U-nam and Jeff Kashiwa. John Nemeth played the Bradfordville Blues Club near Tallahassee Florida last year I surprised him and he introduced me to the audiece, we hung out and had a good time.
Thank you for your site I like it a lot , I get to see my old friends in a place were I spent 14 yrs of my life playing music and developing relationships. I called Paul and he is recovering daily. Thanks again.

Monday follies-Keystone Pizza
Found this on e-bay. I'm thinking this is the Fairveiw location across from Pojo's, however it may be State. Love the Keystone style- never did enjoy the pizza.
Nothing more fun. . .
then a room full of musicians of a Sunday afternoon. OK, maybe they look a bit rough, so maybe might have just woken up. The generosity of this music/bar community always make me smile. The benefit for Paul Peterson is happening around me now. The Ha’ Penny is full of rockers, divas, and bluesmen, and the vibe is full tilt boogie. Spike(yep that Spike) is working crowd with the auction. I’ll post some pics, tomorrow.
Thanks to all who helped.
Paul Peterson
Don't forget!!!!
Photo Friday-City Market
The Market starts on Saturday. Greg and I will be there with lots of new stuff. Looks like good weather early.
Liquor License for sale in Boise
From Craigslist. The Milky Ways?Reply to: sale-643885964@craigslist.org Date: 2008-04-15, 7:17PM MDT
Serious inquiries only. Liquor License for sale in Boise.
I didn't think a Boisee.com story was a "serious inquiry."
Milky Way to close.
Gotta admit this one surprises Boisee. Frankly we have heard the hints and rumors and could not belieive them! The Milky Way is closing as of this Saturday. Bummer!
From their start in the basement of the Carrols building, Milky Way has always been one of our favorites.
Expect to see some of the staff at the Bonefish.
That means powerhouse bartendter Kevin Farney is “on the beach†so the Martini Mix-Off is wide open.

Forbes Likes Boise
Forbes magazine has Boise in many of it's top ten lists. Last week it was terrorists, before that we were "lustful" Now we have good water. . .
Boise City, Idaho
Boise ranked in the top five for lowest levels of lead in its drinking water. But the "City of Trees" had higher levels of haloacetic acid, bacteria and turbidity
Enought already.
We can and we should
