[Boston-Area Action 1/28/26] Show-Going Plans & New Show Announcements
Posted on January 28, 2026 at 5:13 pm | No Comments
Well, whaddya know? Two weeks in a row of this Wednesday thing I’ve been trying to for awhile do where I run down Boston-area shows in my (and maybe your) immediate future along with newly-announced ones that you might be interested in. Remember, it’s not even close to a comprehensive list, just things I’m aware of that I may check out (or I think people I know might be into) so if there’s something missing you think deserves some attention, either imminent or just-announced, add a comment.
An announcement highlight I’ll call out: The LUCE Hotline benefit at the Lilypad on 2/19 with Dino Gala, Babybaby_explores, and Rick from Pile playing solo. Already grabbed a ticket for that one, as should you.
