It’s like a broken record around here, but the Boston Music scene has a huge heart. It really showed at last year’s Viva La Eva benefit for Eva Lipton. Not content to do good things just once, Viva La Eva Dos will be happening next Thursday at TT’s. Joe Queer & Friends, The Dogmatics, The Downbeat 5, Classic Ruins, Parlour Bells, Moose & The Mudbugs and Thee Sonomatics will provide the music. Emma’s Pizza will bring some pizza. You bring yourselves. It’s going to be a wonderful time.

Here are some pics from last year’s event in case you still need some convincing…

The Downbeat 5 @ The Rosebud Bar 3.18.2011

Pregnant rock! Awesome.

Here are J. J. Rassler, Jeff Norcross, Mike Yocco and a glowing Jen D’Angora shaking The Rosebud Bar. It’s The Downbeat 5!



What’s on tap?

So you want to know what’s on tap for next week? Well, I’ll tell you.

I’m still trying to get caught up on 2011 shows, so be prepared for another action packed week. I’ve got a lot more to share with you from Aimee McGrath’s birthday shindig at The Rosebud. How about a video of The Irreverends doing “Annalise”? Sounds good, right? It is. Very good. Photos and video from Watts and The Downbeat 5? Yup. The Rudds? Check. If things get really nutty I may even make it to some photos of Jordan Valentine And The Sunday Saints. Crazy.

That’s it for this week. Have a good weekend!

What The Hell Just Happened?!?

I think I just started a blog.

I mean, there are some pictures I took of The Russians, The Painted Lights and Sodafrog at Precinct back in January down there a little lower on the page. That was a good show. There are a lot of good shows here in Boston. I try to go to them when I can. I bring my camera with me and take pictures. I’ve been doing this for years. I’ve also been building websites for years. You’d think I would have done this sooner.

Time to get the goat by the horns and do something with all of these pictures I’ve got lying around. I’ll start by catching up on this year’s shows. Look for pictures of The Dirty Truckers, Watts, The Downbeat 5, Corin Ashley, Brendan Boogie and a bunch of other bands to start showing up here soon. I’ve got some videos to post, too. Look out Tom Baker!

Once I get caught up on 2011, I’ll start digging into the archives. I’m going to be busy…
