Who's in Town? Not to Miss Shows in... Boston!

by Trish Fontanilla

While fall is my favorite season, (I could go Bubba on you and list my fave types of pumpkin goodies), it is indeed a sign that summer has left the building. From here on in, the sun will be more like the guest star instead of the lead actor. But fear not, Bostonians, there’s a solution to those seasonal blues! Music, besides being incredibly kick ass and awe inspiring, can improve mood. Seriously. Go look it up. So when the sun goes down a little earlier this November, there’s no need to hole up in your apartment and make a perma-tuckus-indentation in the couch. For a pick-me-up, get out and see some live music!

Now if only they’d start doing some live concerts on the T… that’d make the commute more enjoyable. Did I miss one of your favorite bands? Track them on our site or tweet us what concerts you plan to go to this month! Word.
