New England has about a week left of good weather before it gets terrible again. Millions of jerks that bitched about the heat (or the humidity) all summer will soon get their wish and have cold weather to complain about instead. It’s awful. The climate and the people. Which is why I’m leaving. But I’ll…
Congrats! You lived through another Labor Day. And if you’re me (which I know seems impossible) you’ve lived through another wedding too. Despite my best efforts to kill myself with an overindulgence of Jameson & Ginger as well as uncoordinated dancing to favorites like “Higher Love” and “I Want to Dance with Somebody”, here I…
Tonight 7/16- One Night Only – Billy Joel @ FenwayPark – 7:30pm – Not a typical recommendation and I’ll be the worst to admit “Uptown Girl” is one of the worst songs of all time. But I’ve never seen him live before, I’ve never seen a concert at Fenway, and I’m in the mood for…
Almost time to leave Boston behind for the colder pastures (lakes?) of Minnesota. I’m not sure how much live music I will get to see there unless Bob Dylan does some sort of hometown throwdown type of thing.

Friday – 6/19 Flogging Molly and Gogol Bordello @ Blue Hills Bank Pavilion – 7PM – If you think punk is boring try mixing it with traditional Irish or Gypsy Music and see where that takes you. I’ve seen Flogging Molly live before and they are amazing and I hear everyone should go see…
Hello Again. I just flew in from Minnesota and boy are my arms… um, I’m tired. Anyway, I’ve been away from home, pursuing the American dream. Or getting drunk. Or finding a new place to live. Mostly the last two. And now that it is confirmed I’ll be leaving the Boston area in just a…
Greetings! It’s almost Memorial Day. A holiday weekend to celebrate the beginning of Summer with BBQs. And something about War. Maybe? It’s also become the annual weekend for Boston’s Summer Music Festival, Boston Calling. For the 3rd consecutive year hipsters, college kids, and other drunks will flock to Government Center for the 2 and ½…
5/7 HIATUS KAIYOTE @ THE PARADISE ROCK CLUB – Check out the jazzy sounds of the Aussie band self-described as “Multi-Dimensional, Polyrhythmic Gangster Shit”. Tickets are sold out though so either pay the mark up online or rob a scalper since they do not have feelings anyway. THE SILKS @ T.T. THE BEAR’S PLACE –…
