Not A Roundup

I’m still catching up after being out of town for a week, but last night I saw Goes Cube play a show in Boston as a preview of the awesomeness they’ll be bringing to Empire Dine & Dance tonight in a (unofficial) HillyTown show. Montreal’s Clues headline and Marie Stella opens. Doors at 9pm, . . . → Read More: Not A Roundup

P-a-r-t-y

Field Gallery (74 India Street) is celebrating their 3rd birthday today with a party from 5-9pm.

Sorry for the lack of updates over the last week, I was out of town. You were all too busy freaking out over Anvil anyway, right?

Where’s the Roundup?

It’s too nice out to spend the morning on the internet – get outside! You’ve got plenty of options this weekend for entertainment (pssst don’t forget the all ages show that Marie Stella is playing on Sunday) so get out there and enjoy this break from the rain!

The Maine World Tour, This Weekend

Unfortunately one of the bands broke up, one split in half (becoming a solo act), and another had to pull out due . . . → Read More: The Maine World Tour, This Weekend
