Boston Rock Photos And Stuff
Ryan Jackson Troika made Make Music Harvard Square sound like a classic Woodstock jam. Impressive stuff.
It was a gorgeous day in Cambridge for Make Music Harvard Square. Of the nine or so acts I really would have liked to catch, I managed to see two. Instead of focusing on all of the bands I missed, I will bask in the glory of my boy referring to Goddamn Glenn as “Shiny Pants Guy” when we were talking later about the fun we that afternoon. I’m feeling pretty lucky.
Cn’Fn’L purged their pent-up Bruins anxiety with a raucous set at The Middle East Downstairs opening for Imperial State Electric.
Loud guitars and killer harmonies? Goddamn Draculas have ’em and weren’t afraid to use ’em opening for Imperial State Electric.
OK, let’s get something clear. Not only am I a huge fan of the music we’ve got coming out of Boston, but I’m a junkie for high octane rock ‘n’ roll from Sweden. As soon as I heard about the Imperial State Electric show at The Middle East, I freaked out and frantically snatched up tickets. Not only would I get to see a band I never thought I’d get the chance to see live*, but there were three Boston openers ready to give ’em a run for their money.
White Dynomite got things started on a night that would be full-tilt from start to finish. These guys are too much fun.
* Oh, and they were amazing.
The Upper Crust closed out the Viva La Eva!* benefit with some highfalutin debauchery set to high voltage musical accompaniment. Rocque and Roll indeed…

Apparently, The ‘Hoods thought rocking the socks off the crowd gathered at TT’s for the Viva La Eva!* benefit may be a crime. They didn’t want to take any chances, so they took to the stage with nylons stretched over their faces. That’s the back story I made up in my head, anyway.
