Since I’ve started grad school at Simmons, things have been a little different on AGB. There are things I anticipated, such as posting being less frequent, going to WAY less shows, and the concert calendar getting the cold shoulder. But I also noticed that I’ve been posting about less Boston related stuff. :(
What I recently realized is that I might be able to kill 2 birds with 1 stone. What I plan on doing is posting shorter blurbs that are more news/event related to the Boston area, which will hopefully take up less of my time, get me back to talking about local awesomeness, and keep AGB nice & plump. Like last night, for example, John Twells (Xela, Type Records) and Ian Lawrence (Barge Recordings) DJed some killer weird tunes at River Gods in Cambridge. Tyler The Creator spinning in the same set as Outer Space. FUN STUFF. There’s no reason I couldn’t have pointed that out to you ahead of time instead of… now.
So if you live in the Boston area, this is good news for you. If you’re far away and couldn’t care less about who’s DJing where, and when Non-Event hosts a fundraiser with DJs Rob Forman, Angela Sawyer, & Ning Nong, visuals from Orangecookie & Fielderblank, food, raffles, and a silent auction this Saturday at Goethe-Institut from 7-10, FEAR NOT! I also hope to be reviewing more Boston based records as part of my re-localizing plan. Which you will totally care about. Promise.
