Save the Elephants

Local indie-rock outfits Ice Cream Social, La Cacahouette, and the Grade Grubbers are herding forces on Friday (May 4) in an effort to “SAVE THE ELEPHANTS!” at the Buffalo Zoo... or at least to make them more comfortable. Proceeds from this concert event at Broadway Joe’s will be put toward the renovation of the Zoo’s Elephant House, current home to three gigantic mammals named Buki, Jothi, and Surapa. Pictured here are the members of Ice Cream Social and an unidentified pachyderm. Perhaps the band’s trumpeter? Doors open at 9pm, and your $5 donation ($8 if you’re under 21) will go to the cause —and, of course, your listening pleasure.
