EBE | Christmas Picks

It’s ony 5 days away from the joy and wonder of Christmas.  You may be excited to see friends and family, to score some presents, and maybe to eat some roast beast, whatever the fuck that is Dr. Seuss.  Or you may be sick of the commercialism, your in laws, and red and green everything.  Sometimes…

Boston Concert Picks 6/12 – 6/16

Hello Again. I just flew in from Minnesota and boy are my arms… um, I’m tired. Anyway, I’ve been away from home, pursuing the American dream. Or getting drunk. Or finding a new place to live. Mostly the last two. And now that it is confirmed I’ll be leaving the Boston area in just a…
