Who’s in town? Not to miss shows in Boston!

I’m starting off with a shout out. Yeah, I said it. A shout out.
I’d like to tip my hat to the music and entertainment blog, Ryan’s Smashing Life. They’re celebrating their 3rd anniversary with a concert at TT the Bear’s on Saturday, October 24th.
The show will feature Blizzard of 78, Tik Tok, Bridges and Powerlines, and The Grownup Noise. I also heard that this evening will be extra special because it’s the last big show before The Grownup Noise head back into the studio to record their new album.
Anyway, I digress.
So here’s to the folks at Ryan’s Smashing Life. May they have another
totally kick ass, musically full, interesting interviews to the infinity power type of year (or something like that - I’m not good at math).
As for the rest of October, well, there’s an eclectic boatload of awesome
live music sailing through these parts. I don’t know about you but I like:
10/07 Mars Volta @ House of Blues
Because I like to (air) play along to their songs.
10/9 R. Kelly @ Wang Theatre
Because that’s more than a coincidence.
10/10 The Everyday Visuals @ Paradise Rock Club
Because they were voted Best New Band in 2009 (The Phoenix).
10/11 Township @ Church
Because I feel like putting on a stache and skinny jeans.
10/13 Airborne Toxic Event @ House of Blues
Because I need a revelation.
10/13 Eric Hutchinson @ Agganis Arena
Because I love to see a dude do a Whitney Houston remix.
10/15 Ari Hest @ Johnny D’s
Because I wonder what Bruce would sound like if he was from New York (and
I’d rather picture Ari singing me).
10/15 Al Green @ House of Blues
Because the Rev still got it.
10/16 Sarah Blacker @ Hard Rock Cafe
Because it’s her CD release and a portion of the ticket sales that night
go to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
10/17 Tim Blane @ Johnny D’s
Because I need some motivation to play guitar.
10/23 Boys II Men @ Twin River Event Center (Lincoln, RI actually)
Because I’m reminiscing about mix tapes.
10/24 Ryan’s Smashing Life 3rd Anniversary Party @ TT the Bear’s
Because I just wrote a whole paragraph up top!
10/26 Gregory Douglass @ Club Passim
Because Syd said so in my last blog
10/26 Thievery Corporation @ House of Blues
Because YOU won tickets. **hint hint about the next contest, follow
@BandsinBoston to be in the know**
10/31 Gwar @ the Palladium
Because.. is there a better night to see Gwar?
They really need to get on that teleportation thing because I don’t want
to miss out on any good shows!
